Joe, my wife is looking at 75 rent houses that one of her clients wants to buy. I bet I could get you the hook up on one of them. Just plan on a long commute.

I guess I need to get me one of them there facebook accounts, just so I can keep in touch with you. Or I can start texting you "good morning" when I get to work at 6am.

Don't put it past him to talk Megan into renting a building big enough for them to sleep, and enough room to work on the trucks

Yeah "truck" issues. That's it!

Hated to hear that the crew was leaving, but I think you came out pretty good on the deal.

I would kinda like it to look stock. I think I'll try to find some 6 lug rallies.

If you do let me know. I have the headlight buckets for the 85-87 style. I'll send it your way! I'll look and see if I have anything else you may be able to use.

joe231 · 11-01-2011, 02:19 AM

I like the moose buggy. I'd be tempted to put bed sides and a front clip on it if it were mine.

I agree, I'd jack it up and throw a front clip and bed on it. That would be a monster. What front axle do you have in it? I see a 14FF out back.

joe231 · 11-01-2011, 11:15 PM

I agree also...
I have a hood, I was even thinking about a narrowing front and rear sheet metal.
I'd also like to put some smaller (lighter) tires on it. Maybe some AGs, although I'd love some boggers.

It has a big hub Dana 44, the guy I got it from was under the impression it was a Dana 60. I saw the ball joints and did some research. They made ball joint 60's but they were all drivers drop.
