Ok here's the formula....
The platform will be a 4x4 minni truck.
The bellhousing back will be a 5 speed truck tranny (granny 1st and an od 5th) need to pick this also, needs to be able to adapt onto the eng.
Transfer case will be an Atlas 4 sp. They make their own adapters to the trans.
The axles will most likely be dana 44's
Possibly currie high 9'$
This is gunna be my last rockcrawling rig, so no computers or fancy electronics to fail on the trail 3 days from civilization!
Thinking 4-6 cyl turbodiesel lighter the better!
Edit, easy parts availability and low end drive ability. Read grunt and able to run down the highway at 70+.
Donor project body needs to have cargo space for 3-5 days out... Say 3x5' min.
Might rock a quad cab minni with a bobbed bed.
