i went out and bought my 2nd 82 pickup for $850 back in january, right after a buddy of mine rolled it and put on a new cab. it came with the wider rear axle, dual cases and highsteer, along with a couple other mods, besides the lift and tires.

its a beater, i wanted to build it up with starting with a 22re, 4link f/r, welded f/r, raised transfercase(flatbelly), and full cage, and still have it be a dayly driver. does anybody have any suggestions from their builds, where to start, and over time cost?

id start with lockers f/r and gears to get u on the trail. Then look into suspension. That bed needs a bob job as well...to long and ugly. Goodluck. :smokin:
