I need a list

Go find yourself an old solid axle Ford and use the axles, wheels, power steering, shock mounts, coil buckets, pitman arm, steering links, and drive shafts.

Find some coils, shocks, brake lines, u joints, and a new daily driver.

Thats the route I went with my Heep build. Check it out (not whoreing)

I've got maybe 400 bucks into my build including the cost of the Heep itself.

adam, that would work, but she doesnt want to be fullwidth

I don't know your skills, but the questions you're asking are sending some red flags.

Like, you're buying a D44 with bad internals. You don't seem to realize that means it is scrap. Changing an R&P correctly is one of the most difficult things you can do to repair a vehicle, comparable to engine assembly. And if you pay someone else, your $1000 budget will get eaten up very quickly.

You should at least START with a good D44.

The D44 with no(bad) internals is free.


Store, there is a 4x4part store around my house that carries a lot of these parts. I would only go there if I couldn't find them at a junkyard or somewhere cheap.

My friends dad has done an SAS on a stock 2wd before, he said he would help with the truck as well.

I'd say just get a good set of swampers or TSLs and you'll be able to do incredible things with a 2wd.

...

I'd say first, just get a good set of mud tires. Maybe even run a wide mother f'n tire in the back. A buddy of mine ran 33x12.5 TSLs in the front and 35x15.5 TSLs in the rear and that little 2wd could definatly hold it's own in the mud.

I agree. I got Swampers on my 2WD, and I can do almost as much stuff as the big 4x4s, but it takes a little more skill and patience to do it.

Momentum is your friend.

Oh, and a locker is essential. You can do a lot with two wheels always spinning.

Can you drive through lakes? Make it up hills? Thick mud?
