Swap 4x4 axles in front and rear.

Sounds good to me. Maybe put some small windows in it. You could sit up in bed and look out the other side.

Thanks for the kick in the butt. :coffee: It is taking a long time. I keep some things private, and don't post everything online. I've had some setbacks that hurt my progress, but I haven't given up.

I sure hope so.

I have also lowered the hub down on the sidewall to break the bead. That way you can use only one jack to lift the truck, and change the tire. I put a block of wood between the hub and tire to protect it a little.

I've been busy working and traveling. I spent some time at the AZ property. I cleared a spot for the trailer with my little poop scooper shovel. I took a drive down to the end of my street. There is a lot of water moving through here. This was one of 5 or so washes within a mile. I gave...

A good truck is a good truck. You might buy brand new and get a lemon.

I've had braided stainless wear a groove in a truck frame before! I won't use it anymore except on brake lines when I have to.

I thought if it ain't broke, don't fix it. :unsure:

New truck or old, you have to realize that perfection only exists in nature. Anything man-made is prone to failure. I bought a Jeep CJ7 brand new off the lot and it was a 3 year ordeal to get it repaired just so I could sell it at a loss. I believe in simplicity. The problem with newer vehicles...

I dig it!

Merry Christmas everyone.

Cab lights on the roof are notorious for leaking. Break out the silicone.

I was at Glen Helen shooting Robby Gordon's Stadium Super Truck series last weekend. I was up on a hill side when this red tail buzzed me. Beautiful bird that looks well fed,

Love your new house! The truck bed looks great!

Maybe a cab shock?

Ha Ha, Yes, the big question. It needs to be stiff enough so you don't bounce down the trail but still allow the frame to twist. I saw one of those big overlanding rigs that had a system controlled by air I think that clamped the box down on the road, and allowed more freedom on the trail...

What will the spring rate be on the spring mounts?

Having my Warn winch gives me a lot of peace of mind. (y) Congrats on finding the Warn bumper.
