  1. Here is the rest of the story. I work for a towing company. This truck is a theft recovery. It sat on our yard for over 6 years. The insurance company paid out on it to the original owner. The vin numbers have been removed. I talked to state police and dmv here. State came out and looked at it and said if I wanted to register it I would have to go through a process of verifying vin numbers on frame, cab, engine and such. Then its getting all the lights, turn signals and such working again. Frankly after stewing on it for a few days I gave up. The truck is in perfect visual condition, but the wiring harness has been cut out and steering is broke. The v6 is locked up and I'm sure the trans is junk due to the black syrup on the dipstick. So it out with the old and in with the new motor. Its just gonna be a trail truck and mudd boggs. Its the only way I can keep it alive. If anyone needs any small parts just let me know. I'm pulling motor and trans today. I will post pics tonight after i clean it up.

  3. I figured I would check here first. Id rather buy from forum members first rather than big company's. Or if anyone has a sketch for building them that would be great too! looking to put sbc in 85 mj. Thanks
  4. Finally joined and wanted to say hi. I just got a 85 lwb 2wheel drive. Truck was free with no possible way to get a good title. So i guess its gonna be a mud truck. Ive looked around a bit and am wondering if i should do a front leaf spring conversion or just do the long arm. If anyone needs parts let me know. I gonna pull motor and trans tomorrow. Truck is in great shape with perfect red interior. Sadly it will never be a street legal truck again. Well i guess I will go poke around a bit and figure out the lift I want to do......
