So I got an offer to tear down a B2 recently. I got to take whatever I want for $200. We started today, and I am amazed at all the stuff I got. Here's a breakdown:

- Two nice vent window doors
- Nice hood
- Two nice fenders, to fix my crushed in ones
- Two very nice Eddie bucket seats with adjustable lumbar, and center console
- Nice inner fender/radiator support, to fix my crushed one
- set of D28 hubs, spindles, wheel bearings, etc
- set of D28 shafts
- spare front driveshaft
- overhead map light with clock
- B2 gas tank...large capacity, 22 gallon? with skid plate
- good power steering pump
- good AC compressor, will be used for OBA

The best part. I've been looking for new axles with lower gears. 32" tires with 3.45 gears has been tearing the shit out of my clutch. I got:

- D28 pig, 4.10 gears!
- 7.5 rear, 4.10 gears! Open, of course.
- TWO good spare A4LDs
- one spare 1350 t-case

Yes, hate me :D

I am looking forward to getting the near gears in. However I just purchased an 8.8 with 4.10s, LS, and disk brakes and it looks like I will also be getting a free D35 with 4.10s out of an explorer that we'll be scrapping. So my new acquisitions may be going out the door fairly soon. I want to get the 8.8 and D35 built the way I want them, and will be taking my time.

Hate me more. Sorry, I can't help bragging. I'm fucking stoked.
 
I've spent forever trying to find a parts truck and you've found 3, 4 already?:icon_confused: Oh well......it's a totally good natured hatred.:rolleyes:
