Great truck - I will tell you its a lot easier to find parts for the 10 bolt or car 12 bolt than for the truck 12 bolt, at least around here (Maine.) I couldn't even get a cover or cover gasket for mine and ended up ordering the cover online and just made a gasket.

Looking forward to seeing where this goes!

Thanks for checking Vern out. Mine feels pretty slow moving too. I keep finding little things that snowball into something bigger.

The 10 bolt is my choice too. It just needs a posi to make it a little less prone to getting stuck in wet grass...for real, it happened...that was embarrassing. My wife pulled me out with the Ranger The picture makes the slope look a lot steeper than it really is.
