1989 FX4 BII, resto-mod project


dude its your call on the front end, i am really starting to like the look of gen 2's so i would leave it, bu i also love the look of gen 1's...its your call man
 
Headlight harness will not work with gen 1 lights. I'd say leave it 2nd gen. I like the looks of both.

someone sold a kit at one point that made the factory harness of the 2nd gen work with a 1st gen front.

edit: nevermind it was the other way around... my dad just told me i was backwards
 
i like the gen 2 better...cleaner look.the gen 1 is sweet to but.....the my opinion.
great work so far .i just got a near mint 1990 b2 myself for $350.all it needs is a fuel pump.it is a 2.9 with 5 speed and maunual t-case ,d35 front,3:73 gears with l/s rear.
 
going to be ordering the lift very very soon should be this week coming. when i get it i will be painting all the brackets orange and the drag link and other steering arms orange and rest of the axle black and the knuckles orange lol
 
Well I planned on doing it like mhughes or MoabB2s truck but now im kind of thinking stumpys b2. I'll try to get a pic
