Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes
Speaking of my old Power Wagon. I'm sure pictures are in this thread but I doubt many will be looking through a second time (or remember by the time they get this far). I bought ths truck in '77. Lift kits were a new thing and no one made anything for pre-72 Dodges. We arched the springs on an anvil for the front. Made blocks for the rear out of cut up and welded together spring stock. 36" monster Mudders had come out, but Armstrong had just started making 37/14.50 Extra Tractions (same pattern as Rhinos) and I ordered those from Dick Cepek. It turns out they were listed before they had been produced and I ended up waiting from Sept till May on them
