My truck started out as an 84 3/4 ton 4x4. After ten years of different lifts, motors, trannys and axles not to mention the three differtent bodies first body rusted off second rolled. The truck is what you see now.

custom built 15X12 with 2 inch backspacing chrome modular center with black out ring wheels

I payed $75.00 bucks for this in 97. It needed tires and a battery.

I put a newer box and fenders on it painted allis chalmers orange put five under it and 35 swampers with a mild 400. that truck got abused hard but never failed.

Time to make compact cars. This is when a had 35" boggers on it. This body eventully rust apart.

After i found a perfect black body for $600.00. I put on another 3" in body lift for a total of 8" this is with my Chrome mods and 35" BFG's I had a mild 440 at is time.

Parked most of the winter. I didnt want the road salt to eat the body.

Just so you dont think it never went out. This is with the 35" boggers. as you can see I like orange so a cude stripe went on. Then one cold morning as i was trailering the truck to a mud bog a wheel bearing failed on the trailer that i was using, the trailer whipped around and the truck and trailor flipped over. That was the end of that body. The good news was it was just the body everything on the under side lived.
So with a good frame and desent axles. I stripped the 5" off the suspension and added the new springs built new spring mounts. found a rusted up body that i replaced all the metal i could, got bigger boggers, built a new 440 and tranny for it.
