Thats a bummer man, add an ignition killswitch this time one or two of those bad boys will stop any theif in their tracks


79 to 95 can be broken into VERY easily with minimal tools, i wont go into any detail. People steal them to wheel them, part them out, or use parts on their personal rig (common around here) Theyre actually very popular and valuable to most... around here at least

 

yeah. either kill switch or im lookin into a lo jack system. let them take it.. the cops will find them with it. id rather them get caught AND get my truck back then just get the truck back

 

just hook up a shocking device on your door handle ha ha

 

Id rather them just not even be able to start my truck and go find a different one. If they stay to try and figure out the killswitch, all the more chance of me finding them and kicking their ass

LoJack would be good for a nice car or something but chances are, theyre gonna take a yota out and beat the hell out of it and ditch it somewhere within the first 5 hours

 

Sorry to hear bro! X 2 on the conversion post hunt idea!

 

x2^^ but they did steal it and strip everything, that took a little while

 

well the lo jack i want has the alert thing in it. so if ur keys arent in ur truck when it starts it calls 5 ppl to tell them then u can call the cops. so the cops should be looking for it within like 20 min of them starting it. but the kill switch would be nice too. would a kill switch work if they pop the clutch too? or only if they try to break the ignition or hotwire it.

 

Not that this is going to help much now. But my uncle knows a thing or two about tracking people down, don't ask how because even I don't. If you had a original motor that was never replaced then you might be able to track the the VIN #. You also said the thieves offroaded it? So they know the area and likely were the original ones who broke into your truck, so that may mean they live close. You should check your local or near your location's Parts shops, junk yards, etc. for your motor and trans. They likely haven't sold it because let's face it, how many people do you see actually replacing a 22r.

 

I must've lucked out when I got my 86 sb 4wd for $1100. I really need to make it unstealable, as I live near the tweakers and Rubicon, and have seen a few destroyed and picked over out in the woods.

 

If the theives are running around in your rig with lo jack they will just be caught in the act...

Its got GPS...
