Well new addition to a Buddie of mine. bought this thing for parts lol, built Toy axles fully rebuilt, trussed and gusseted, dirty 30's(alloy shafts) birfield eliminators(beefier alloy spare shafts), 5.29 gears, Detroit's F+R, read disk conversion, 35" km2's brand new set of 5. trail-gear springs and solid axle swap parts, marlin drive-lines, 4.7-1 gears in the T-case, internal cage, extra T/case, D60 king pin front axle(not in truck) bumpers front and rear, sliders, electric fans, gave him 4 brand new sets of bilstien shocks depending on angle and setup he chooses to run lol , an extra diff, and some other BS I am forgetting. the guy built it, took it off-road 3 times(its clean), moved to Utah and lost interest.. everything on it is practically new, and it runs like a dream. 7k worth of parts and got it for 3k lol has about 1500 miles on it since all the work was done lol wish I could find a "parts vehicle" to rob all the goodies off of lol

Stripping this down to the frame and selling tons of parts, then taking all the 4X4 **** and putting it on his 88 4runner. going to be SICK! excited for a new project to waste time on!

Those look sweet, did you bash on em yet to see if they hold up? Just kind of questioning the fact that they hook to the uni with flat plate rather than an L design. Seems they'd be more prone to bending up into the body with that design. Mine are the L shape that attaches to the side and bottom of the unibody and I still managed to send one up into the rocker on a hard obsticle in Moab. Dont think I'd trust a design that only attached to the side of the unibody, just my opinion though.
