since you arent using a stock front clip, i would find a kind soul with the same truck as you, and have him put a stick of tubing or wood underneath the front of the 1st set of bodymounts, drop a plumbob down the center of the wheel, and a plumbob down to the stick of wood at front of the bodymount then give you a measurement to work from, make sure to center this up at ride height or maybe even full lift so that you are measurin the wheel centered in the wheelwell so incase there is some caster that might change the location of the wheel when layed out.

if im not mistaken all the s10 frames should be the same as long as they are the same bodystyle.

NO ALL s10 frames from the very first year to the last year are the very same other than reg/ext cab and long/short bed

all the frame are the same, but the firewalls and body positions are different so you cant measure a 2nd gen for a first gen or whatever ya know. i doubt youll be able to do what you need without the cab and the frame together bro.
