Buckethead gets an 80

Buckethead's 80

I have been looking for a good 80 for quite a while.
My search came to an end this past weekend.

It is a 96, locked, 131k and the PO had pampered it.

I am now researching lift, probably going to run 315 BFG ATS (free).

I am also looking at Front and Rear Bumper Designs as well as sliders so I can put some of my friends fab skills to work.

Here are some pics as she sits.

Nice! It does look like it got pampered. I just hope that you don't have to rebuild the diff locks because no one else knew what they were. Did you try them before you bought it?

One of the first things I did.

Work Great!

Nice clean rig. Congrats. It even has the USA soccer mom association approved 2 tone paint job. You and Beowulf can start your own club. Looks like a great start.

Nice rig man. You've got the same little red light alarm thing to the left of the diff locks that I have.

I too was a little worried when I bought mine and when asked, the lady replied all she knew about "that little thang" was that her husband told her never to touch it. I was relieved to find no issues. Great rig man.

I think it is a Toyota add on. Mine has the same one.

I've got that, too. Do you have a funky looking key with the buttons on it?

No.

 

[Atticus]

No.

I have one. It's kind of chintzy. I think it's an aftermarket deal.

If you are talking about the key fob thingy, I have one that is black and red with one single button on it. It's aftermarket.
