I was banned Friday for going to fast without cage. Need to find someone local to make me a rollbar like Turbomics.

That's a cool little hauler man!! I like the fleetside better but they both look real good. Is there a big weight difference between the two? Step side is made out of fiberglass isn't it?

Great looking truck with a potent powerplant! I am sure you will shock some sports cars on the highway with this gem. Best of luck with it!

Broke the rear in it yesterday. Going to install 3.42 gears to gain traction. Turbo spools quickly with 4.10s now but I bet the 3.42s will make it even quicker. Don't know if a tru-trac is better than my eaton posi. The SOB lasted 4 years with heavy abuse.
