Hiya Gang!
Pretty stoked about the new rig. It's a '93 with, I'm thinking, about 4"-5" suspension lift sitting on new 31's. It has been geared down in the rear but I have no specs on that or tech on the sus. Climbs like a goat though!

Even though it sat for a few years it only has 100k miles. That said most of the seals are showing themselves so on the docket for the next couple weeks is:
-new water pump and all coolant hoses (completing today)
-rear main, head gasket, front main, and valve covers(valve covers have been done already)
On the fun side the plans are to have a budget overland rig so the list as follows. Please feel free to make any and all suggestions, especially on sources for stuff! I'm open!
-Aux fuel tank in the spare tire well(will have transfer pump to main tank and y-valve/hose length for filling other rigs etc)
-Skid plates for said tank
-roof cargo rack
-Aux lights on the rack
-Front bumper with winch
-Bronco II spare tire carrier mod
-possibly 33's if I have it that long(the 31's on it are brand new)
Thanks for any and all ideas!
Cheers,
D
