the front shocks on these trucks are the same length as the 1st gen s10s so they may work.

Anything can be done, you just need to find the length of a s10 coil over and measure the truck and see if it will put you where you want your truck.

The spring perch of the S10 is higher tham the MM. The shock is almost identical. Chances are it wont work unless you get a custom spring.

I was going to go this route in the beginning, but I'm not spending the money based on those measurements.

I wish I could mod up some of my 240sx coilovers but highly doubt
it but I love them.

Mostly drop coils blocks and bags in this site. Don't think I've seen anyone run coilovers on these, plenty on Hard bodies and such

I still have other repairs and fab needed to do on my ride, but I'm going to use coilovers as soon as the time comes. There isnt a ton of room up front, so some reconstruction will probably have to take place depending on your design. I have to build my own control arms to adapt everything I intend to use.

Guess ill wait and see what kind of designs I can draw up
for a custom setup.
I know alot of 240sx people that did fab work so ill
do some research and make a thread when I start mine.
