Lookey what I found :)

So, being that the BII is broked, and I really need a 4x4 soon... I found, and bought this...

Yes, it's 2wd, for now... I plan on doing a 2wd to 4wd swap on it soon, 33" AT's, 4-6" of lift, and just freshening everything up... It's 4.0, 160k miles, M50D, L/S 3.73 8.8"... I paid the whopping sum of $700 for it, lol...

Whoa, don't everybody reply all at once, haha... So, my plans have changed a bit... Instead of just doing a mild build up I'm gonna go sorta extreme

I'll be doing a D44 SAS and 33" mild MT's/agressive AT's, and eventually (sometime next year) swapping in a rebuilt turbo GM 6.5... What you guys think?

It sounds like it would be a pretty mean machine if you got that Turbo 6.5 swapped in.

Can I see a pic of the interior? How is that back seat compared to a B2 or the rest of the space in the rear for that matter? I don't like the B2's because they are so very small in the back. That thing looks just like a B2 because of the two doors vs the 4door of which I am not a fan.

Yeah, I've got a line on a N/A 6.2, but I'd like to find a factory turbo 6.5. I'm also having trouble figuring out what manual transmission would be good to put behind it...

Beanmachine7000 · 02-15-2009, 08:37 PM

Big enough to get 4 265/75 tires in (the 4th one fell out and rolled down my driveway, wasn't putting it back for the picture)...

It's about the same as a BII, I can lay down comfortably in the Ex and that's all I care about, lol... So, I can sleep in it... Nothing else...

That's the back seat, not much, but it holds my books and such pretty well, lol...

You are da man!!

Thanks for the picture.

Beanmachine7000 · 02-15-2009, 09:06 PM

Yeah, I got another I'm pulling off my camera now...

Beanmachine7000 · 02-15-2009, 09:28 PM

Here is how it sits now, I got the brand new Destination AT's and wheels from the BII on it, and I think it looks real sharp
