Finally got all the cast cut off my 60 and rewelded the tube. Now comes the fun part!

Also, does anyone have a set of front doors and maybe some front seats for an 89 or year around there?

Working with that cast is fun. Luckily it is a little softer than mild steel so it cuts and grinds a little quicker.

There is talk about closing it. It is fun but not worth it if you have to drive more than a hour. Takes less than 30 minutes to get to the top & enjoy the view. I'd rather drive a little further & spend all day at a OHV park.

I made it up on 32's & open diffs.

Anywhere to camp up there? Itd be worth the drive (bout an hour and a half) if i was there longer than just an hour or two.

No camping at the top.

There's no difficulty to it other than the last 100 feet of rock.

I should have diff covers tomorrow. Hopefully I can get a good bit done the next two days. I'm trying to make it to MM on the 21st...

Damn I'm good.

And to match, the drag link clears the hydro ram mount bolt head by the width of a pube. Down side, you can't put a nut on it, so it'll probably just get a long 3/4" bolt with a 3" shoulder and a 1/4" cotter pin. Not ideal, but it's not going to go anywhere.

Depends where you and where you go for price. Any alignment shop with a good rack should be able to do it. Just make sure your numbers are within a factory spec and all the joints and bushings are in good shape before you go.
