A real hybrid with Jeep and Chevy springs, Marlin stuff, Aussie locker and a GM drivetrain!

I like the flatbed and the way it's all coming together. Good stuff!

Looks good but you better get some more weight on the back or it ain't gonna flex like you want.
My buddy wants to throw a chevy 350 and auto into mine. However I lke my manual transmission and would rather stay with a yota engine.

You gonna get lockers for it?
