Spectormj Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I feel its time to start my build thread and lay some ideas out as I work on the build I drive an 86 mj with the underpowered 2.8 auto trans Some of my plans right now are new paint to take it from silver to a midnight black with red accents such as my rokshots in the grill I am going to have my mechanic build me custom axles and help me with the motor/trans swap ride height as it sits right now is fairly stock with 30s under it My plan is to go to 4.5 all the way around might go abit higher just because of the SOA I'm planing for the rear ill have pics up this weekend of what I'm dealing with so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minuit Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 The 86 trucks always seem like they have the best paint schemes. I'm looking forward to seeing this rig in person :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

91Pioneer Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Wow, the antler shifter is the most redneck thing I think I've seen since I saw a Corvette body on a lifted 4x4 chassis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
