Is that thing 4x4? If it is, then you also got the D60 front that everyone so much wants... Hell, even if tis just a 2wd, tis still a slant-nose 4-door, and so is cool by default.

Yah, you stole it alright, big time steal too! Are those oversized tires on it, or just the springs are wore out?

IIRC 86 was the changover year. you could either get the twin traction beam or the d60.

Actually, I think that was 1985.5

+1
1986 was the first complete year with the return of the D60 kingpin axle.

Man around here a truck like that would get you $400-$500 in scrap

hahahah

 

[Cucamongan]

Geez, yeah, thats a STEAL alright

Heck, i'd pay ya Triple for it!

 

[Diesel_brad]

That is a steal. Around here scrap is $14 a hundred for cars and that had got to weigh about 7k so that pays $980!!!

That is a steal! Sure looks to sit lower than a Dana 60 truck would, but who knows.

FWIW, I drug mine out of a field for the price of fixing a guys 72 CJ (about $300 in parts); but it was a gasser with issues that was abandoned 3 years prior, and belonged to my wife's uncle.
