Im happy to see your not sellin my truck right off the bat and also that you have taken care of it and actually have some good plans for it. I did the crossmember thing on my 81 woked like a charm and you dont have to pull the motor. Its a good idea to do it though especially if you plan on bagging it as the front will always sit higher than the rear until you either notch the member or Z the frame up front.

I really wish we could have gotten that tire deal worked out im still needing rear tires for the burb. The steering is fixed now picked up a used gear now its driveable LOL! Wife still wont drive it though LOL!

Let me know if you need any more help man Ill be more than happy to lend a hand. God I miss that thing LOL!!!!
