I've seen 1 coil over ifs lifted truck. It was a build thread I. S10 forum I believe. He used after market upper and lower control arms. With custom coil over mounts. And I believe he even had the coil overs custom made. I'll see if I can find it Agean.

And I believe a couple people have made heavy duty ifs trucks with 9in independint center sections and custom shafts. But I don't remember actually reading those builds just herd about them. I'm more interested in sfa so I never research ifs.
Also you may want to consider sfa it easier (you can nearly buy everything for it bolt on). And depending on how you do your ifs. It's stronger.

We'll only a couple places sell s10 sas kits that I know of.

https://www.4wdfactory.com/store/produc ... r-Kit.html
There's sky's kit

https://www.4wdfactory.com/store/produc ... wd%29.html
Ord kit.

I couldent find diversified creations but here's a link to where they're talking about it.
But the point to realize about this kit is it's only a jeep xj lift kit bolted to an s10 frame with jeep axle so even if they don't make it all you have to do buy the xj kit

And of course you can custom build it all.
