Long time 62 series owner, but recent 40 series owner. I've been wanting one for nearly a decade, but my other cars needed upgrades and life happens, so it took longer than I thought it would.
I saw this beauty while getting some mods done on my tacoma. It has 44 inch tires, a GM 350 engine, 60 series axles, an NV4500 and an Orion transfer case.
When we off loaded it, we realized that it was way too wide to fit in the backyard.
So we had to change out the 44in tires with 37s off an H1 Hummer
It looks so much weaker now. But I plan on installing 40 inch Yokohamas once they are in stock.
Penelope and Big Red. 4BT compound diesel vs GM 350.
The first order of business was to get the bezel on the correct way.
Second order of business was to replace the fuel tank which has some rust in it.
I wanted a all black fuel tank, but they didn't have them in 20 gallons, so I got what was functional, not what looked good.
Ordered a bunch more parts, but the build will be slow, I'm currently in quarantine and will be deploying in a few months.
