Been a long time since I have been on this site!! Nice to have a project Again... Introducing BIG RED..
I found this bone stock in Dec 22 with 137,000 original kilometres on the dial in Miles that is 85,000 for you Southern Boys!!
Since I have owned it I have cavity waxed every single compartment and taken the whole undercarriage apart and undercoated every square inch.
I steam cleaned the entire undercarriage and let it dry for 2 weeks before undercoating and sealing.. I have replaced all front end, adjustable control arms, lift, rear springs, fan cooled atf cooler, BD Sway bars, track bars, trans pan, Fox Shocks, steering stabilizers, the list goes on. Now it drives and steers like it should and there are many future plans!!

It's been a bit, but the Kings (3" front, 2.5" rear) are on and front axle is trussed. Loving this thing! It eats up rough and rocky Forrest Service roads like the ones all through Flat Tops like they are paved and still isn't phased by 4k lbs in the bed when it's time to do some work.

Added a Detholff skid plate under the engine a little while back. Super burly and an absolutely a work of art, way, way nicer than it needs to be. Love it.

Still need to get skids for the transfer case, fuel tank, and source/fab some rock sliders.
