Seats. Passenger seat is a 9 out of 10 and driver is an 7 or 8. Still plenty of life before warranting any replacement.
Hey Dude,
I'm not sure how I came across this thread....looks like you've done some work to the truck since I last saw it. Speaking of which...did you make it down to the the outer banks this year? I actually opened up an outdoor bar out back of the coffee shop. Went well for the first year and now all the beer I drink is a write off.
I have a small favor to ask of ya...can you take a pic or 2 of the oil pan clearance around the diff. I'm currently building engine mounts for my diesel in the 80 frame/79 body. I'm using j springs also and I just want to make sure I have enough clearance.
Hope all is well with you man...drop a line or give a hollar when you get a chance.

Ary...?
Sorry, meant to ask if you had re-geared, and to what ratio?

Nope. It's only running 295s and with the turbo, it could turn 315s without gears.
If you search in the 80 section you'll see a thread about this topic.

Any interest in trade + cash?
I apologize ahead of time for this lame question, but where did you get the cup holder? My wife HATES the fact that only the driver has a cup holder. She would be very excited if I could pick one up like that.
Edit: nevermind. did a little more research and realized that it's a cup holder for a Land Rover. Looks like a 94-99 years. They come in gray, tan, and black and cost about $35. (except for black which is $50) found a few websites that sell them.

If only I had about 7k more in the budget I'd be all over this. Nice truck, man. If you get desperate I'll take advantage of you.
Funny. That's the first time I've ever said that to a guy.

Are the original pics showing your rig with that coil spring set up? If not, what springs are on it in those pics?

Price is obo. I'll work on more pics
Sadly, my "bo" for this is going to be too low for you. Good luck, man. Looks like a fun truck.

Pics just taken today showing j springs up front and heavies in the rear. Also, now showing blacked out front grill.
What kind of mileage are you getting with this rig after the changes you have made to it?

I have a heavy foot. 12 is pretty average though.
Can you fit a winch in the bumper w/ the intercooler located where it is?

I've measured it out and it looks like a small, m8000 or similar would work.
