OK so this is my old **** box. I have had this beater for 10 years and its never got any respect. Its been sitting in the back of my shop since crannberry lake got cancelled,(2 or 3 years ago) needing some love. it used to have 44 tsls now 46 inch michelins and next week I will be mounting up the brand new 53 inchers on double beadlocks. I had been looking at the front end wondering what to do?? pretty sure the new tires would have eaten the old headlights. :redneck: I have to get this thing going for new years eve. A friend of mine has alot of property and we generally tear it up every new years eve. alot of big trucks usually show up (40s and up), so it gets deep. I will be on pulling duty

It looks scared just like the new FJ's. Paint the lights black. That'll tuffen it up. :redneck: But you need a 12" body lift to go with the lift blocks. This will keep your butt outt of the mud. :redneck:

just the 53s are scary enough. just my tires might make your rig piss itself!!:haha: :haha: :haha:

if you think the blocks are bad, the body lift is out of the question. the cab is welded to the frame.:redneck:

i took out the 12 inch springs years ago cuz they sucked. instead of dropping the spring hangers (catch on everything) to run 8 inch softrides, i just welded in a tall perch (its part of the axle) and run a traction bar. never had a problem. ill leave em there just cuz your not supozed to.:redneck:

so if you need a pull new years eve, come on out.:cheer:

I got the cross member and the drive shafts done. I need a new 465 205 adapter. I noticed a crack around the top. Its been missing one tab for awile. I had to notch it to clear the cv and sleeved the mount holes aswell. also put a mount on the side to help with abuse.

the shafts are .25 wall compared to the stock duece thickness (duece is the larger diameter tube in pic).

the angles look sweet and should take a beating.:redneck:

radiator and battery mounts are done also. set up to run two batteries.

the radiator is as large as i could find that didnt stick out past the frame.
