If you're trying to cut weight in the front end, thats easy. Replace PS with a manual S10 box. Ditch the AC. Ditto for the front swaybar. Cut out the bumper reinforcement. Switch to aluminum heads/intake/water pump. Lose all the emissions crap. Switch to a tubular k-member, a arms, coil overs (get the manual rack setup for even more wight savings). Remove or lighten (holesaw) anything that doesn't effect rigidity or performance. Cut out extraneous wiring in the front end after you delete all that stuff.

Not weight removal, but relocate your battery to the right rear (spare tire well)...it at least gets the weight to the right end of the car.
