  1. then it sounds to me like a better idea is to leave it alone and start anew after the move is all sorted out. Moving it rough and you've got a LOT of complication to your life coming up, no need to start a project that could EASILY screw up halfway and leave you with a non-working rig. welding on perches is about as easy as welding gets and it doesn't even have to be done anywhere near your truck.
  2. looks to be an AW4 transmission you've got there.
  3. seems like a lot of work was done for... that... don't think even a set of good rims will save it.
  4. is the truck drive-able as a 2wd right now? what are you doing for a rear driveshaft?
  5. I moved ya over to the Pub as an introduction. when you get the VIN, drop that into the appropriate registry subforum and you'll get a build sheet and birthday for your new baby. nice patina!

    dang. such a gorgeous truck. you alright?
  7. a giant Borla muffler. like, for a big truck. very quiet at idle and throaty when I'm on the skinny pedal. It's not a v8 though.
  8. I wonder if it is still sitting on the tires...
  9. there's a guy on facebook that has both a dually and a street 'manche but I can't seem to get him to stop by here and share.
  10. um, at least they painted it? does it count as an addition? or just a parking spot?
  11. not sure anymore. the tires no longer rub and the new rear axle doesn't even leak! with 0 ABS sensors working (rear axle is non-abs) the speedometer is likely officially dead though. I'll try and snag some junkyard ones for the front so I can get my odo back.
  12. found a place for the subwoofer behind the rear seat. had to raise the shelf a bit to clear it. and the amp should fit in here (in the dash where the airbag used to reside)
  13. can't you still strap the bed onto the bed?
  14. if anyone needs a higher resolution image, send me an email addy via a private message and a list of which pages.
  15. can you snap a pic of what you do have?
  16. and my favorite thing that I'm super bummed I don't get to keep:
  17. test drive up to 30mph complete. nothing blew up or fell off! there's some scuffing sound when I pull a hard left turn. guessing that's a brake dust shield that needs to be tweaked. all in all it felt good and absorbed the bumps quite nicely. since it insists on raining all day again I think I'll park it and look into that noise another time. Happy so far
  18. awww, a hunter green too.
  19. I was thinking either that or inside during a garage fire. looks more like it was baked at 750* for 30 minutes rather than set ablaze via the usual manners. looks like it has a lift kit. also, where are the knuckles?
  20. can you strap the new bed on top of the old?
