tires
By monday I should have these 37-13-15 boggers.I dont know if they will fit,but they have about 50 offroad miles on them and im getting them for doing some welding for a guy.

This truck will go down the road fine when finished,but will probably spend the remainder of its life on a trailor.It will probably see 200-500 miles a year, offroad from here on out.By the time its done I will have about a quarter spool of wire,3-5 grinding wheels,gas,and about 5 hours of welding,grinding and cleanup time into the tires.Not a bad price.

welding
In case everyone has not noticed,almost every part of this truck that needs welded is tacked in place.The reason is the wind blows constantly here and I dont have a shop.Mig welding in the wind doesnt work.So if anyone reads this in the Kennewick area and you have a shop,I will let you use my lincoln 250 amp mig on your truck in trade for shop time.

37-13-15 boggers
Sitting with chevy 63"springs on 2"blocks.Still working on the front shackle problem,so the front axle isnt mounted yet.I hope to have that done by this weekend.

Toyota rear VS dana 60
I have been told the toyota V6 rear end is strong.When I pulled the 4.56 pod out it had like 6 busted teeth on the ring gear.This worries me.Should I sell what I have before I destroy it and get a 60 instead?

I traded them for the cost of mount and balance for the boggers.You didnt want them anyway,the front two were destroyed.Is that a new truck?I thought I saw one with your phone # that was rolled?Need an axle?I have one exactly like the one under my truck that im building now, for sale?

lug nuts
Yesterday I had this thing put together,but all I had were toyota lug nuts.I was pissed.So today I got the wheels on and rolled her out.first pics.Probably need a little blockage in the rear to level it out,but im happy.
