LOL Yes they are Thanks !!!!
looks good, but why the locker in the front? makes it hard to turn in tight areas espeicaly with a plow on the front.
Its more a toy -- Haul dirt bikes,wood , bogger to events, then plow a lot of family drive ways in winter, Axles were a trade I made. The blue truck I took body off had 3/4 tons with spools front an back. Traded for some 10 bolt 4:56 locked. Just thought it would be neat to be locked up. Will help a lot when leaving some of the mud bogges and make one fun trail rig LOL (Plow truck is what I told wife ;) LOL) Its a tru trac locker. I drove one on road all the time before in another truck I had. Never noticed it that much. Plow may make it more noticeable we will see.
Looking good bro hurry up so we can get the yukon and jeep done
==cl Looking good. Have you thought about adding a spring or two to the front to hold up the plow? Looks like they are straight across right now, adding an extra spring or two would make it ride rougher but might keep it from sagging the front end. Should be a riot no matter what you do! ==djdj
==kp ==wgm
looks a lot nicer than my 87 lol! i wish my build looked like that!
