At first when I bought my 60 I enjoyed just driving it. Once I found IH8MUD and reading threads ideas in my mind started to roll around. I loved my 60 but being passed by everybody heading up the mountain to go skiing/ boarding was frustrating. I started to research engine swaps and decided 4BT Cummins was for me. I found a motor out of a stepvan still running and bought it. Then came the transplant and swap. Rebuilt NV4500 transmission. Champion Radiator, alternator, starter, power steering pump, battery, electrical, etc. I thought perhaps I would be done but... it’s an addiction. Too many MUD members and friends said to go SOA so I’ve bought 63 leaf springs, high steer kit, Ruff Stuff SOA kit, Hydro Assist ram, and gearbox rebuild kit which has been drilled and tapped. Decided while I’m there miz we’ll replace the rear with an 80s full float and disc brakes. Now I’m looking at Speedhut Gauge upgrade and 37” Cooper ST MAXX tires, bead lock wheels, new rear retractable seatbelts from Seatbelt Planet. Needs a paint job, luckily my buddy knows a guy who’s great and affordable. Need front 4plus bumper, sliders, rear tire carrier and bumper, roof rack, winch, and roof top tent... yikes! Then I should be expedition ready. The list goes on and on by it is fun seeing the transformation of these cruisers.
As my cruiser sits now. Awaiting SOA conversion starting next Saturday.
What mods have you done and does the list ever end???
