The J20s have a little more, maybe up to 10,000 pounds but I can't remember exactly. I had a J10 I was going to make into a tow rig but it was just going to cost way too much to do the upgrades and legally it was still rated at only 5,000 pounds which can be a liability issue.

89 MJ Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 Turns out this truck is a Honcho. It has the stickers on the lip of the doors, fenders, cab, and bed. It has had a low quality repaint at one point. It Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89 MJ Posted October 20, 2020 Author Share Posted October 20, 2020 He got the yellow one running and driving, but doesn't think he will sell either now. He wants to use the yellow truck as a nice, restored daily driver and make the orange one a bobber trail rig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89 MJ Posted November 2, 2020 Author Share Posted November 2, 2020 It now is solid fuel lines and he took some headlights out of a 97 header panel that I had, so it now has headlights that aren't busted out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89 MJ Posted November 9, 2020 Author Share Posted November 9, 2020 Update. The vavles were a little sticky and the valve kissed the piston. So, two pushrods got slightly bent. I'll post a picture later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
