if your doing that type of stuff, find a 60. little more height for bigger tires. i cleared 36's with no lift after putting the 60 in.

and btw that hole is nothing... lol

I'm working on the Dana swap man just don't have the funds to buy one and rebuild it. I've heard figures like $1500 to 2 grand. So far the ttb has cost about $400 in repairs and I still need lockouts. I placed a order for new spindles and nut kit. Bought all my hub bearings and seals. The truck has been hard to start. It is the 30s at night and close to 50 during the day. I can hear the gp relay kick in and it tries to go and sounds like it's gunna fire but it wasn't like this after the spindle went out and Inchangex the fuel filter.

I would like to put 37s under there. Just slowly working on it. I would really like to get the motor rebuilt and turned up first.

my motor is stock, just has turbo on it. 210000 miles. it is starting to get tired, but still runs great. i just need to change gears and i will be happy. the 40's and 3.55 gears sorta suck around town.

Where are you "playing" in those pics? We are not that far away from each other. I live in Greenfield. We just up your way this weekend. Looks like fun. I know there are not may 4 wheel are areas around. The big one that I know about is the one down by Batesville, can't remember the name of it right now. A couple guys from work go down there an play once in a while.

Out towards jalapa. It's a pretty nice run. Plus there are two more spots just down the road.

I looked u up on the map and it looks like batesville is just on the other side of Indy. We should try to hook sometime. I'd love to hit some new trails.
