I got a quote today for 1900 bucks but for that price I would def rather drive it, I was watching that truck on gl (missing the guages) was that a civi truck? whats with the weird color? and it looks like its in really good shape, good luck with you recovery, my mother in law lives in quincy, I...

Thats awesome thanks! Yep I am gonna try and drive it, I have asked a few friends but most have ruled against driving it, I think it will be fine, I have read alot of the acquisitions here on the board and with some prior proper planning and the TM's thanks to SS it should go smoothly :beer:

that is actually the plan, I am trying to get an idea of what shipping would cost and see which would be cheaper, I like the idea of the adventure

Like the title says I have a 925 at ft lewis, truck runs awaiting euc, I am looking for a price quote to redding ca or southern oregon, thanks.

do it and report back your results. I would think this would be a good Idea, I plan on doing something similar to mine, cause i dont plan on having it in deep water anyways

cool thanks for the info, thats what I thought also, just wasnt sure without having to measure them.

I searched but couldnt find the information I was looking for, are these wheels the same as the 5-ton bolt pattern? or is it a larger diameter bolt circle? thanks for any help. I was thinking LAV wheels, looks like the center hole is large enough for a planetary hub

yes but a 10 bolt is one of the weakest axles made by gm, and if you welded it I can see this being a failure, I welded the diffs on my old bronco that had 2.5 rocks in it and I never had an axle failure even with 49's and a big block, all depends on your equipment, it would be fine in a 60 for...

I am spooled in the front of my crawler, I love it for all applications except street, but I have hydraulic steering, if you do alot of street driving the detroit is not the locker for you, they are pretty stout as far as strength goes, but the elocker is a decent alternative, what size tires...

add a turbo and an egt then you will have a power change, and you can play with the pump after the fact, like what was said above, you wont see much of a power change adjusting the pump until you install a turbo, add an intercooler if you want more than that :beer:

make some out of 1" tube and mount them spring loaded, like a retractable step something like this maybe http://www.amazon.com/Go-Rhino-220PS-Stainless-SpringStep/dp/B000CMH7IE just lengthened obviously because of the height difference

I am not a big fan of the bobbers, but I like the small beds on them, They dont really look out of place unless you have that in mind when looking at them. 5ton looks bigger and meaner with that extra rear axle, just my .02 :)

the uparmor is cool, I like the glass too, is the weight that much different than a stocker? just wondering cause I havent seen many numbers.

I dont think that the th700r4 is going to hold up, either 400hd or go with the 4l80e, that is the heavy duty version of the 4spd auto

I am looking at purchasing a 5 ton from barstow, anyone going that way soon, or know of a transport service that could help? Any help is greatly appreciated.
