RescueDuck33 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Picked up a sweet diamond in the rough and have to say it is a fun 2wd to drive with a ton of power with the 350. Was going to do a 4x4 swap but think I'm might just drop it 2 inch all around and throw my Moab rims laying around on it and just enjoy it as is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
