This is a southern truck and is rust free. I've owned it for about 6 years. I had the seats re-upholstered with real leather about 4 years ago, so the seats look good. This one does have the factory front and rear locking differentials. 190k miles.

Ask any question, I'll be as honest as possible. Truck is not perfect, but runs well and has been well maintained by me. Oil pan seal leaks but not worth fixing to me. PHH has been fixed with silicone hose. 1" body lift with grade 8 hardware, FOR Gen II springs up front, Ironman out back...
I just hit 180k and both hose gave way. The heater hose under the passenger's seat started leaking. I didn't discover it until I was under the truck repairing the catastrophic failure of the PHH. 180k, they served me well. They broke just in time for me to flush and re-fill coolant for the...
I picked up a set of 4 Radial SSR TSL's today in the 37x12.5R16 variety. Not exactly what I was looking for, but I couldn't pass on the price. We'll see how they fit. I'm running FOR front springs with 30mm spacers and Ironman 2.5" springs with 30mm spacers. I have MAF control arm brackets...
I'm on day two of installing my lift. I was expecting it to be much easier. We got the front springs and shocks in; that took some work. Now we're trying to get the MAF brackets in and it's not looking good. The brackets bolt to two of the bolt holes for the tranny cross-member. On each...
I just ordered a pair of these for the rear doors of my 80. Sales tax will vary, but it was $17.05 to my door. Here's a link to the sale and the link to the speakers on the Sony web page. Enjoy!

I'm looking for a set of 37x12.5 MT's in either the 16", 17", or 16.5" variety. I'm looking for tires with at least 75% tread left. Shipping would probably be a deal killer, but I am willing to travel within 250 miles of Beaumont, TX. Let me know what you've got and a price.
I'm looking to buy some parts from a guy in Waxahachie. I'm looking for a way to get them to Houston or Beaumont. The parts are brackets for a lift, the largest measuring around 36 inches. The seller says he can meet up at I-45 or I-35. Let me know if you can help out and your price.
Looking to get a set of the MAF front control arm drop brackets. I would prefer the 3" version, but if the price is right, I'll entertain the 4" version. You know you want to get Landtank plates anyway. Take off those low hanging brackets and sell them to me!
I'm piecing together a lift and I need drop brackets. (I'm not asking for your opinion of why plates are better than brackets.) I also need some rear springs, preferably TJM but I will consider Ironman or OME if the price is right. This is all for an 80. PM me.
I'm in need of some MAF 3" drop brackets to correct for my Frankenlift (https://forum.ih8mud.com/80-series-tech/540181-frankenlift-suggestions.html). If the price is right, I could use 4" brackets in stead. Let me know if you have either and your price shipped to 77662.

I recently got my hands on some FOR gen II front coils so now I'm starting to piece together a lift. My plan thus far is to go with FOR on the front and TJM springs with 30mm spacers on the rear with Doetsch shocks on all four. I've read more threads than I would like to on lifts and options...
I'm attempting to repair my AC since I have 78* vent temps and the wife is not happy. I decided to follow this thread: https://forum.ih8mud.com/80-series-tech/296748-c-system-how-remove-cooling-unit-evaporator-expansion-valve.html and replace the expansion valve, drier, valve core on the...
I have an AC leak by the drier and it's leaking AC oil. Is there a way to measure how much oil is still in the system so I know how much to add? I just got a new drier in the mail along with a new expansion valve. I'm looking to dive into this job soon but I don't want to do all of this work...
