So it always helps to make sure everything is full. Here is this thing doin what it does best, keepin the guys there in a job!! I guess it needs a name now, any suggestions? Also, it will need the bodywork done and painted soon. Should I go dark blue or black? ;D

After a whole bunch of horsin around lookin for metric taps and beatin hell out of the driveshaft to get it to slide again, I got the 4wd workin on this thing here finally. I just put the front axle on a toggle switch.. It works and it appears the front and rear are the same gear ratio yeahh so now I need a set of shocks and cut a hole in the floor to mount the tcase shifter, find a nice rubber boot to go over it. ==dj gmcc
