Sweet, Price?
 
We paid $3,500. Needs freshening up,but still a good deal. Hasn't been wheeled since 2004. We are weighing either getting it trail ready the way it is or doing more mods,such as D60 front or D20 transfer case with the 3.15 gears(that would change the crawl ratio from 67:1 to 81:1. :bounce:
 
Took out the Dana 300 (2.62:1), gonna put in the Dana 20 (3.15:1) next to it.

He had all four wheels pulling with the fresh Power Loks, it did well. That's his brother with him.
