I need MOAAR pics or some vids, specs, something!

HaHa, I'm not a big fan of the mud either but not many rocks in the southwest part of TN. I'll try to scrounge up some more pics but here's most of the build list:
  • 77' body on 72' chassis
  • 5 1/2 in. rockcrawler coils - 3 1/2 inch 10 leaf rockcrawler springs
  • Extended radius arms
  • 4.10 gearing - rear Detroit locker/front tru-trac (9 in./Dana 44 w/Spicer HD axle shafts)
  • 35x15.50x15 TSL/SX Swampers on 15x12 beadlocks
  • 302 bored .040, TRW 9.5:1 forged pistons, Edelbrock aluminum heads and high rise intake, Edelbrock 600cfm carb (hate this carb), MSD ignition/distributor, full length headers
  • Electric fuel pump
  • Auto meter gages
  • 3 sp tranny (still stock)
  • Custom made stainless steel tube bumpers
  • Ramsey 9000 lb winch

Very nice! I've always wanted to find one of these and build it up. Nothing huge but a "handle itself and more" build. Yours is just that! Love it!

Thanks man! This was it when my dad had it.. He drove it everyday to work. Im eventually gonna put a straight axle under it. And yea i basically done everything to it seen above. When my dad bought it from my brother, it was a plain jane truck with no a/c or power steering, but we swapped it over. He wanted a S10 so i bought one and traded him out of it. Ive had it about 4 years now.

Nice! So you just traded a S10 straight up for it?! Man, I would have to! Rugged little trucks! I've always liked the older Nissan and Toyota 4x pickups. Thanks for sharing!

It was a '85 S10 2.8/5Speed truck with 114k original miles in killer shape, so we traded even. I know he wouldnt of done that with anyone else lol. But having a hour drive to work, it was tough on the Nissan being a 4x4. You cant beat the Z24 8-plugged Nissans.
