Subscribed. I need to stop reading these forums, I get my truck back together and I want to tear it down again. I happen to have a divorced np205, dana60 and 14 bolt just laying around. You have me thinking.

X 2 I just got my I truck all back together too and I'm ready to tear it down and do a four wheel drive conversation. I have all the parts to do it. Great work she's gonna be a monster with those wheels. You got me looking every day for more progress.
