In love with my 'new to me' 95 4R. Stock except for stereo and BFGs

Lifting the rear defiantly makes one aware of the need/desire for lockers.

Once upon a time, my truck looked just like yours......not anymore. LOVE THE HUBCAPS.... wanted to steel wheels for my truck, but the wife liked the wheels that are on it. They are from Toyota too.

my second "mini" truck ever. had my first one 20 years ago; an 82 with 33" muds. that was the first rig i drove thru rubicon. and i've had a soft spot for them since.

anyways, a customer of mine had an unfinished project and made me a deal i could'nt pass up. bought it a couple of months ago, got it trail ready and took it to rubithon this year. already looking forward to running fordyce in early august and then back up to rubicon for the marlin roundup.

4L60E
dual cases all 23 spline with 4.7s in rear case
fcfab track bar
