My personal favorite is a flatfender but they can be kind of cramped. For a daily driver the newer the better. For a fun wheeler the older the better. If you could find a CJ6 with a 225 V6 that would be the sweet one. Look for cracks in the frame, rust in the body, and hack repairs or mods...
A lot depends on the sand too on whether or not you need to air down. Talk to any desert dweller and they will tell you there are different types of sand.
I don't know. 4btswaps.com has a classified section and you see some pop up for sale there from time to time. I have seen them on ebay and craigslist too. Be prepared to look for a while and pay a fair bit of money for one. They don't seem to come up to often and when they do people want a...
Thanks for the compliements.:) Its good to get some other IH guys motivated. My wife is scared too.:elkgrin: This June will be 23 years since I bought my first International. I was 16, it was a 1966 Scout and my dad just shook his head, its been downhill ever since.:snorkel:
The motor is a...
Made some more progress on it this last weekend. Finished stripping the old powertrain out of it. Found a guy who bought the whole setup from me so we loaded all of it up Sunday afternoon. More room to work now. I put the engine/trans/transfercase in front of it too. I decided on my Cummins...
Nice trailer build. I have had nothing but problems offroad with C and D tires, they get flats way to easy. I run E or better and haven't had an offroad flat since then.
Got a set of wheel adaptors for a project that never happened. They are 8x170mm to 8x6.5 pattern, aluminum. They are for a Ford Superduty axle to convert its lug pattern to the more common 8 lug pattern. Asking $50 plus shipping. Located in N ID. Will get some pics up this weekend.
Nice axle porn.:Wow1: Shipping would be the killer on it though.
I have replaced a lot of unitized wheel bearings and balljoints on these newer trucks, not so many packable wheel bearings and kingpins on the older trucks. I think I would keep your kingpin, serviceable wheel bearing axle and...
Good Luck. They do come up here for sale every so often. I bought mine here, just have to keep looking a couple times a day. When they do come up here they go pretty quick so you have to keep an eye on the classifieds.
I actually owned a 86 K30 dually crewcab for a while and it did have the big studs. Awesome truck.
So your front diff is on the drivers side? The outer brake pad does look like Chevy. At least you know what it is now for parts ordering.
Good to know. Did you just get new wheel bearings or change the studs?
So its a Ford drivers side drop king pin 60. Betcha Quiqley spec'ed it and Dana built it with off the shelf parts that you wouldn't see together normally on a Ford or GM or Dodge 60 but you would on a Quigley 60.:)
