I got an 89 s10 blazer 4x4 and i was gonna do long travel pre-runner but no one makes a 4x4 kit so i may just convert to 2wd. but i already built a prerunner bumper and roof rack with offset wheels. i will put pics up when i get the chance.

ok, soo ive been looking for a while and cant find any prerunner kits...would i have to fabricate my own or is there a kit out there that i didnt find, and i got a couple of silly questions, what shocks should i go with? Would the torsion bars still be ok with the prerunner setup? or would i have to convert to coilovers over all? Ive only got 2 years of mechanical experience and that was schooling so i dont really know a whole lot but i have the general idea down and stuff so dont be hating lol

Torsion bars don't have a lot of travel, if you want to do any sort of prerunning (more than 10 MPH or so over bumps) go with coilovers.
