You could get a 4x4 labs bumper or something else that replaces the crossmember. Hopefully the rust is isolated to those spots, they see a lot of salt.

Do you have a complete harness in good shape for an 85 60?

Went down that road a few years ago, no regrets. Nice looking shop space!

A modified HDJ will get you over the mountain passes loaded at 70mph no problem, for quite a bit less than an LS swap or turboing a gasser. Gotta take in to account the HDJ premium though.

I think with the military bench config you could do 10 total. Just have to figure out how to get those dang car seats strapped down.

I wonder how 5 kids would fit in a mega cruiser.

Even in a 100 it sounds very tight. Get your fiancée to drive and buy one of each.

It is a 740 ft lb impact. But yeah following the fsm is your best bet.

I bought a giant Makita impact wrench and drove it home. Probably makes some people cringe, but it worked.

I just installed a one stone in my 80. I didn't need to modify the door card, other than adding some double sided tape. This really helps me with my posture and not slouching while driving, resulting in less back pain on long drives. The 80 was not built for tall people.

Not sure if this satisfies the "B1" requirement, but I purchased metric diesel fuel line here and am happy with the fit and durability. Used the Flennor line specifically. Hose - Diesel - Page 1 - BelMetric - https://belmetric.com/hose/diesel/

We got yelled at when I dropped my wife off at an intersection. Construction guy thought she was abandoning the car at the stop sign.

Actually quite the opposite. I owned mine in the midde of the city and driving was pretty much the same as LHD. It gets awkward when you get on the rural 2 lane roads. You have to lean pretty far in to the passenger side to spot oncoming traffic when passing.

Im just surprised they won't accept a ram mount

There are plenty of mechanics that can work on them, but you might have to order parts for the mechanic. I just moved to 8500 ft, and the temps have been ~15 F the last few days. She's not necessarily happy, but with direct injection it fires up almost immediately. Some sort of block heater...
