Hey fellas, i know this isnt a help thread but i was hoping to get some help since its a 4x4 one. My '72 3/4 does great in 4 wheel and even does really well in two wheel off road, however i noticed that when i was trying to do some doughnuts in the dirt the truck wouldnt whip around it would just kinda turn... I believe i had the front hubs still locked however it was in 2 wheel drive. Ive also witnessed only one rear tire on that truck spin before when the hubs were locked and id gas it in the dirt but when i unlocked them they both spun again... Just wondering why this happens and if i need the rear end serviced or rebuilt or if its normal. Thanks for any help.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
Interesting about the front hubs not locked but in 4wd, think it is still loading up the transfer case and turning both the front end just not the hubs so maybe effects the rear a bit trying to turn both front and rear, wouldn't hurt to service the rear anyway..

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
I wish my 71 looked as good as yours. I'm 3/4 of the way through a frame off resto. What are your plans for the truck.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
Getting old is alright I figure, just turned 54 lately and had a lot of cool rides over the years, just over 130 so far and built all of them a lot of hours but a lot of learning and fun, almost feel smart..
Beautiful truck though..keep at it and have fun.
