    Dana 60 and 70.. also a sterling

    I am selling a set of one ton axles. The front is a Chevy SRW D60 out of a CUCV and the rear is a matching width D70. The D60 is out of a M1028 CUCV so it should have 4.56 gears. Most M1028's also came with a limited slip in the front which I believe this one has but have not opened to verify...

    Futon in truck bed

    What type of bedding does everyone else use? I would like to leave the bedding in the truck but it isn't necessarily required. I have found one issue with the plan and that is the wheel well wouldn't allow the futon to sit back all the way. and then if you were to lift the lower portion up high...

    TundraBirds Go! Picture Thread for Tundras and T-100s

    Figured I would post mine up. Slow build, but most seem to be. I got the truck from my neighbor, a little old man that bought it new in 96. Had 262k miles on it and he said he had zero issues with it until the head gasket blew. Picked it up pretty cheap with the plan to rebuild it to exactly...

    Solar or Generator

    daveyd, do you have a build on your setup in the back? any videos of the generator running? did you do anything to push fresh air to the genie? How quiet is it, can you say, run it at night (assuming you sleep in the back as well?).

    Pulling the trigger on a Zuk

    First of all just remember when thinking about comparing diesel to gas, even though the diesel doesnt have the HP it has loads more torque, which is what were after in the offroad world. you also have to remember that the powerband and RPM range of a diesel is much different then a gaser. as...
