Dan; You may want to contact Bob Batson at EVAmerica. He sells the lift kits and also has a lot of knowledge on the S-10 conversions.

Maybe that will change with this one. I am in need of some information to complete my S-10 EV conversion. I would like to place my lithium batteries under the bed, between the frame rails and need to make a hinge setup to be able to lift the bed. Somewhere in the past on the EVDL, I remember reading about someone making a hinge setup that would allow the bed to lift back and up over the heavy duty rear bumper. It has to lift up or it will catch on the rear bumper. It think it was kind of like an "S" shape that bolted to the chassis on one end and to the bed on the other end if I remember correctly. I might have the shape wrong, but if you know what I am trying to describe, could you let me know and maybe send a picture or a drawing of it. I was going to use approximately 1/8 " or 1/4 " steel plate to make the hinge. If it would be easier, I can provide my mailing address to send a pattern of the hinge shape I am not going to send it in this e-mail. Any help would be appreciated. This project has been a long time in coming, but I am making progress. There have been parts along the way that needed to be completed or repaired. Well, thanks to anyone who know of what I am talking about and can help me. Dan Eyk -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
