Awesome. Thanks! Just read the write-up 👍 Looks like one other guy installed sans modification. Think unmodified works ok?

Any update? Were you able to get the kit?

Thanks! Only plans are light wheeling, when trying to get somewhere. No plans to need a tilt-o-meter ;) Think I will keep the carbed motor and get it back up and running. Finding a donor truck in my area, that has a decent 22RE, plus wiring, and is a reasonable price, is a tall order.

Pic from this weekend. The boy in the truck, offloading from the trailer.

Yeah, I think that’s what I will do. Might as well while I am in there. Any thoughts on putting in an RE to replace the R? Worth the time and effort, or not really?

TC = timing chain Emissions are not an issue in WA state. Thanks! Mileage is right for it, I think….

Greetings all, Long time 2nd gen owner, but I haven’t had one in a few years (sold my ‘94 to buy a Tundra when we were having a kid. Why’d I do that again? Sell the truck I mean). I will be picking up an ‘86 with 114K on it, on Saturday (price was too good to pass on). My intention is to get...

It works

Dang. You’re much closer than I am, but I shipped one to him already. Hang on to that seat frame though, someone may need it!

Pretty sure I have one. Text or call me at 3603052233. -Ryan

Howdy, I am up in Bellingham, and have a '76 55 that is a runner, and I also have a couple of parts trucks. I am working on a '79 that I will keep, so the '76 needs to go, and I pretty much have all good metal for the bad spots on the '76. -Ryan

Howdy, Did you have all new oil cooler and steering pump lines made up? If so, any issues with connecting to OEM threads? I am in the process of putting my OM617 back together, and would really like to get rid of the old hoses.

@crustyBJ60 Yeah man, I have one, with a key too. I won't be back for 3 weeks though (on Van Isl now ;)) I have been off for MUD for a while, but will have the time to devote to pigs when I get back. I am just S of the Peace Arch crossing.

Check with @xtremeVA

I am about 45 min from this rig, I'm guessing, so I'd be happy to look at it if anyone is interested.
