Stick a fork into the big guy. It’s done. I’m going to steal the skid, winch mount, gas tank tuck/high clearance hitch and 4 link for the white one, maybe the taller springs, leaving just the motor and 37’s with an unsure future

you had a good run though what 4 years of beating the crap out of it

Made 5 hard years of breaking trail in the snow. Hard work always full load on the drivetrain. It works well and nothing is that bad but it needs front diff work , both driveshafts, transfer case. I can steal a bunch of parts for the white one too get it working better now. If I do that it’ll be just the motor left in it that’s any good. I really want to move to something smaller and lighter. Won’t get there if I keep rebuilding this one every year. Been kicking the idea of seeing if I could sell the whole package and parts hoard and finding something else to build. The new truck flattened the budget a bit though. Might run the white Guy for a while.

Well I’ve been putting this off. But I’m finally starting to pull parts off. The center skid has been taken to work and powder coated already, the winch is out. Hoping to get the winch mount off and if it’ll fit in the sand blaster it’ll be powder coated as well. The winch setup, tank tuck/high high clearance hitch, and skid will make their way to the white one and maybe the 4 link upper rear setup. There won’t be much left on this one that’s decent sides from the motor.

I’m tempted to try and swing my d60’s under this guy as it already needs new suspension and driveshafts as it sits. But I may just sell the motor
