Josh40601's Build Thread. (D-ranged)

[Josh40601]

Hmm, I wonder what's going under the front of sarge


SVT

Hmmmm... Not sure guess we will have to find out tonight...

 

[Josh40601]

D looks funny in a tan outfit....

Yes. Yes he does. And I hate it. Once I get the house I will start working on this again. First thing will be shipping the coil overs back to King to have a full rebuild done on them.

Josh, I ain't thinking, but most likely your putting both axles from sarge under D cause of the ratio difference. Whats under the back of D right now?

The whole story is out on pirate, I wont blow the lid off over here though quite yet...

 

[RangerSVT]

I don't go on pirate, TRS is my home

Rick found out yesterday when we met up. Keeping the 9" with an adapter to the 8 lug.

Cage is first gents. Axle was just too good of a deal to pass up. Need the cage to design the new front suspension

 

[Josh40601]

Got a new-to-me topper to store all the parts in. Also moved the truck to where it wasn't sitting on the ground.

Still collecting parts for the ol gal. I've been searching for an engine for some time now. Nothing in my price range. Power will be either 4bt or 4bd. Whichever one I find a better deal on is what I'll go with

 

[RangerSVT]

I think I can hook you up with a complete 4bt with accessories (fead, altenator, power steering, etc) for $2.5k with low miles, and I believe it comes with tranny. If your interested, let me know and I'll work my magic

Dat gum! I know who I need to bug if I'm in the market for a motor. Is there anything you can't find?

 

[RangerSVT]

Want one? I came across a guy who claims he has a warehouse full of supply. I'd like to get one myself to build a 40+ mpg parts getter, but its not in my budget at this time...

SVT

 

[Josh40601]

I'll let you know Rick. Rather go with the 4BD, but if I find a screaming deal on a 4BT, I'm going that route.

Can't afford the 2500 right now. I'm just looking to see if one pops up for sub-1000.

A topper with a spoiler.

I dunno. It was like that when I got it. It was free. And yes it will come off when we get to the body work
