I took a 1 ton pickup and turned it into a 3/4 ton power ram.
It looks a little rough now, but wait and see. The frame is getting shortened 15 1/4 inch to fit a 92 shortbox. I picked up a 1988 3/4 ton 4x4 for the diffs and transfer case. The motor is well your going to have to wait a while for that one. We (my brother and I) are doing a ground up resto with everything being sandblasted and coated with por 15. And finally a 3 inch body lift should do the trick.

Sign my guestbook and let me know if you like what your seeing,or what you think I need to do. Thanks
