82 sr5

Well just about done with this truck so I thought I would post some pictures.









Thinking pretty hard about selling it and buying something more trail-worthy to beat on. Its just too nice to take off road now. What do you guys think? Get some sliders and rear bumper and ride with the 82? or sell it and buy a better built crawler?

I would love to get your truck for my kids.
Personally I would keep your truck.
No reason you can't wheel it and keep it nice..

Great job on the truck, especially the interior, seats. Better keep it, you'll regret selling it.
Thanks for posting...

thats a nice truck .. I would keep it , as the nice ones are getting hard to find these days .. and in a few years , if you sell it , you'd wish you hadnt .. I built mine from the ground up .. it's for sale , but I doubt I will ever actually sell it

Let's have some details on it. I'd guess there's some Old Man Emu parts involved, and those look like 33x10.5 KM2's. Am I right? Anything else done?
