dirtrider88's fullwidth 83 pickup

This is my first build. Iv had this truck for 4 years now and really just started working on it the past year. When I got the truck it was perty much stock 83 long bed yota w/o a bed, had cut fenders with 33's and 3in tough country leafspring lift.

What iv done:
axles: dana 44 in front, 14bolt in rear, both locked with 4:88's, high steer, 36/12.50/16.5 military bead locks.

engine: rebuilt the 22r, weber 32/36 carb, long tube headers, new head and cam

Body: built the flat bed, relocated gas tank to rear,
