    Figured the crowd over here would get a kick out of my sweeeet new parts truck. $650 for a good running 145k 3RZ to replace my tired 350k unit.






    I really want to merciless beat on it at the badlands one day before I part it out.

    Damn good deal :D Great rig for a parts project!

    But there's a lot of rust in there. Hopefully parts are actually usable :eek:

    Those lights are pretty cool. I would like to have a set up like that at some point when I man up and start doing night wheeling :D

    Is AC still functional on yours?

    In the little bit I got to run mine, I've only seen 3 trails in the daylight. The rest was following the leader after dark.

    Screw canyon crawling at 110* with an open cab.

    Rock lights are awesome. I actually point some forward off the front crossmember, don't need the big lights in double low but nice to see a glow of what's coming up.

    Sweet set up. I really need to add some lights as I have nothing at the moment.

    I do have AC :D But I hibernate during summers. Been wheeling a few times during the summer but it's too brutal here in the valley...though going up north is totally doable. I mostly go wheeling between October-May, and mostly on weekends during the day. My career rarely allows time for me to wheel during the week, so I am limited to weekends during the day anyway.

    For those running 14 Bolt in the rear what locker are you using? I was thinking ARB made an air locker for the 14 bolt but it looks like it won't work with 5.38s. I really wanted a selectable for the street but I'm not seeing anything

    Yukon makes a zip locker for the 14bolt. I ran a detroit in mine back in my jeep days, back when it was a lunchbox style and before detroit decided they wanted damn near a grand for them.

    I don't have selectable in my 14bolt. Went with a Grizzly..which is Yukon's version of a Detroit.

    However, went with a zip locker in the front.

    I run a grizzly which runs as a lunchbox in the 14 bolt configuration as well as detroit. Ox doesn't work in a 14 bolt.

    IS this where the thick/thin cut gears come into play?
