Killer deal on the parts truck...yep I am a little jealous. looking forward to seeing the progress

 

How much ya sellin the bracket lift for?

 

Thanks man! It was a good deal. Unfortunately, I am delayed in starting the motor swap by having to fix my brother and dad's trucks.

I'd like to sell it with the rear springs. 800 obo for the whole thing

 

subscribed, Looks like an awesome project!

 

Thanks all...

Likely I will not have much progress until after the new year. I need to finish outfitting the garage, and also install the SC on my dad's truck, as well as the new elocked 4.3 diff, and 4.3 front diff and the locker harness.

 

I might have missed it...but how much did ya give for the parts truck there Ike?

 

Ooh, what are the plans for the garage?

 

We have agreed on 2900. Still have to get the title

Its just getting organized. Its only 2 car, but fairly good sized for a townhome. I just finished an enclosure for my air compressor (non-belt drive 35gal craftsman=noisy). Got some shelves up, and now need to install 20 amp 110v power, and 50 amp 220 volt power for the welder and plasma cutter

 

sweet man. i always enjoy reading your opinions. when i was first trying to get into wheeling my spirits were kinda killed looking at POWER, LIFT AND TIRES and knowing my yota lacked all 3. im no where near your status but i learned a lot in your builds and comments about what really matters and how to apply logic and physics to off road. really pumped to stalk this thread once you get going. never can learn too much.

 

Thanks man, glad my posts have been somewhat helpful. Thank you for the kind words.

 

Subscribed. I saw ya driving the rig at like 92nd and Wads on Saturday. I was all like holy crap, I know that rig from YT!

 

Nice! I was carting a front diff for a 97 runner back from the car wash. Building up the old man's rig and got a new one that morning. It was a mess, and I was watching it to make sure it didn't slide around in the back. Sorry I missed you.

 

Nice, that sounds like fun. We were cruising around in my old mans rig, 73 Bronco

 

Oh! I think I may have seen you then. I'm a sucker for EB's, love those things. I remember glancing out the window when one caught my eye. Nice truck!

 

idk how you keep doing it, but you never cease to amaze me with the things that you do...

and what a killer deal on the parts truck!! kudos! ill be keeping my eye on this one...

 

Awesome thread! Subscribed!

Gotta question though, How much you lookin at for those km1's?

 

Thanks man, but I hope you stay as excited after the updates keep coming in....LOL. Sometimes my ideas and builds go a bit haywire

That depends. The rears are in good condition, but have some chucking from rocks. The fronts are a bit worn. I'm thinking 400 obo, unless you want the wheels from the parts truck, which are aluminum aftermarkets, I'll have to check the brand.

 

Thanks! We have a few layin around.

 

The other thing that will be going in, that I forgot to mention, is that the parts truck has a dual battery system with optima red tops. I'm not wild about the optima's, but I'll run em until they quit, and get a couple odysseys or deka's.

 

That is an absolute steal what you got that truck for! I must admit, I'd be building it back if it were me. Maybe because my truck isn't nearly as built as yours!

Good luck and have fun!
