Thanks!!!

Planning on some 4.70 gears for the rear T-case here pretty soon. Definatly need to bend up an inner cage for the cab, do up a link suspension in the rear, and possibly stretch the wheelbase some.

Sounds like a solid plan there. Are you local to Tillamook? I was up there for Cruisin' the Woods last year, and the place is crazy in the best way! :D

That's an awesome front bumper (amongst other things!) What's the OD of the tube?

Thanks!!

Tim at wild west used 3 5/8" for the main bars, the stinger is 1 3/4", and the hoops off the stinger and the little guys on the bottom are 1 1/2", All DOM. I like the looks of the big tube, almost looks like a retro 80's style bumper.
 
A little lesson learned about two weeks ago out wheeling:

Check the torque on your knuckle studs frequently.

I apparently had not checked them in a loooooooong time, they got loose, sheered all four studs, and left me on the side of the trail waiting hours for spare parts. :bang:

My ARP studs just arived and I will be performing the '5th stud' mod. :beer:
 
I think I've seen you at tsf.... I remember the truck pretty well and it seems realy well sorted. Nicely done.
