There is a little left original but not much. I've been wheeling the same rig for like 10 or so years now. It's been one hell of a ride. More rollovers than I can imagine its a journey I'd make again given the chance.
Original metal... Hmmm. About 2/3 of frame though its all been plated. No original crosmembers are left... The front axle housing was the original though it was gusseted and plated quite a bit to.
If u didnt notice my last statement was past tense. Yea my son was driving and we went down a 8' or so drop broke a ring gear due to the upper trunion breaking and crushing the passenger knuckle ball around the birfield. I had to cut the knuckle ball away to get the axle and birfield out.. I'm about half way done gathering goodies to put tons under it.
