Specs on it were: Dana 44s front and rear, Detroits, and 4.56 gears TBI 350, SM465, stock Dana 300 39" Iroks, beadlocks, lots of dents, dirt, rock rash, etc...
The dana 44s were not holding up anymore, the rig was becoming more and more unreliable, and I was just getting sick of the short wheelbase. So I decided to start over and rebuild it bigger, longer, and better (hopefully). The plan:
Dana 60 front, locked, 4.10 gears, high steer, full hydro 14 bolt rear shaved, 4.10 gears, disc brakes 231 or NP203 doubler, 4 to 1 gears in the 300, HD outputs At least 42" tires, Hummer beadlocks 110" wheelbase, room for a backseat A new better, stronger cage Lots of dents, dirt, rock rash, etc...
Im keeping the same engine, going to re-wire it so it will be more reliable. Transmission will be the same, just a new clutch and clutch fork.

Been making more progress, got the frame cut last night so I can extend it. Ordered full hydro, shafts and joints for the front, locker, and drive flanges. Working on getting a doubler from a guy in California too. Ill post more pics when I get further.

Im thinking 12" to 15" extension, I want my WB to be around 107" and would like room for a back seat. Im shooting for Labor Day to have it at least drivable. There's a ton left to do so we will see.
