just rebuild the entire frame. strip the underbody then beef it up like a 4x4 at in and out!. sounds dope man, cummins or nothin. but if i were you i would sell the six cylinder and get the 4cyl 4bt. same exact cid just minus 2cyl. 3.9l that would help with weight space and milage, not that the 6bt would be bad. but good luck man!!

Well since you don't know what pirate is, be very careful when you post anything on there. Always always always research first unless you like getting flamed out the ***. Pirate has basically no censoring either. Take all the joking with a grain of salt, don't get pissed at anyone because they usually aren't within reasonable driving distance to actually fight. Listen to the guys talking about welding.

Edit: And Timmay is a freakin evil genius when it comes to fab work. It's amazing!
