Well it's been a long slow haul on it but it's slowly getting done. Got it in the end of 2005 when I was a 16 years old. 360cid, blown up TF727, NP208, D44/9 1/4 with lsd, and 3.23 gears. First thing I did was put some Bald 33in Wildcats ha. And of course next was rebuilding the Tranny. Thank god my dad, (Toolman) knows how. Shoot I think I wheeled it like that for 3 months then got some 33in Wild Country TXR's. After a trip to the hills 3 times a week and 4 months later.... the tranny let loose again. Long story short I had to move away for a year and a half so it sat...

Well got back to Oregon in the beginning of 2009. Had some extra money so I bought some goodies for the truck a long with another rebuild kit for the tranny. I hate Auto Transmissions so I got a little more careful besides the TCI cooler and the Stage 2 shift kit I put in it: Couple extra things I got. Some for free. Lokar Ratchet Shifter Tach: Got a set of Hooker Headers and (not shown) 2 1/2in Super 44 Series Flowmasters

And while I was in North Carolina I won a drawing on Pirate 4x4 for a $200 gift card at Ruff Stuff Specialties. So I spoiled myslef some more with a D44 and D60 diff cover that are 3/8in think hehe ;D And an Optima battery tray for my red top. I must give Dan at Ruff Stuff some props. Their stuff is quite awesome.

No it's a 360, and yes that's where it's set at in the picture, but it goes to 6 grand alllll the time haha. Right now it's set at 5,500 with the new motor. But it goes to 7 grand now

After I got all that stuff done on the truck, Toolman decided to upgrade to a front Dana 60, 4in lift and 38in Claws. So I got the hand me downs: Front 8 lug Dana 44, 4.10 gears and a Richmond locker Rear Dana 60, 4.10's with a Lincoln locker And 37x12.50x16in SSR's grooved by F250diesel that Toolman let me use Also got his 2 1/2in lift
