Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

Joe, my wife is looking at 75 rent houses that one of her clients wants to buy. I bet I could get you the hook up on one of them. Just plan on a long commute.

I guess I need to get me one of them there facebook accounts, just so I can keep in touch with you. Or I can start texting you "good morning" when I get to work at 6am.

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

Well,
Big sexy went to its new home this past Thursday evening.
I traded it for a sweet little 84 short bed K10 and a 75 single cab moose buggy on 47" Michelin XML's
I'm stoked but know I'm gonna miss it.
I'll post pics of tge new rigs ASAP.

Yeah "truck" issues. That's it!

Hated to hear that the crew was leaving, but I think you came out pretty good on the deal.

Thanks. I'm leaning towards keeping it at the moment but I just don't know....
I would kinda like it to look stock. I think I'll try to find some 6 lug rallies.

If you do let me know. I have the headlight buckets for the 85-87 style. I'll send it your way! I'll look and see if I have anything else you may be able to use.

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

I like the moose buggy. I'd be tempted to put bed sides and a front clip on it if it were mine.

I agree, I'd jack it up and throw a front clip and bed on it. That would be a monster. What front axle do you have in it? I see a 14FF out back.

Re: My Crew Cab Short Bed Project, AKA "Project Destiny"

I agree also...
I have a hood, I was even thinking about a narrowing front and rear sheet metal.
I'd also like to put some smaller (lighter) tires on it. Maybe some AGs, although I'd love some boggers.

It has a big hub Dana 44, the guy I got it from was under the impression it was a Dana 60. I saw the ball joints and did some research. They made ball joint 60's but they were all drivers drop.
