    I think I need bags :mad:

    These OMEs + AAL are not holding up.


    Any advice and insight from the wise drunkards? ;)

    You're not the first, and won't be the last to be disappointed by OME.

    Deaver or Alcan, or go for the glory of a chevy 63 swap.

    Wish I'd have known before I went with them. Oof.
    I'll look into the labor involved with a chevy 63 deal

    They just are not happy with the tent topper. Mighty disappointed.

    @Wulf I'll check alcans then!

    Anyone going to be at the swap meet tomorrow? I’ll be peddling my sliders and a few other things.

    We don't talk about these things :D

    Once I have an official home for the plate it'll happen. Currently zip tied to the swing arm though

    I guess the key is to go to a junkyard in South Dakota where the good parts aren't all stripped on day 0.

    What are you stuck on--deciding what you want or finding the actual parts?

    Looks fun. Maybe I'll stop by next time I visit the Black Hills.

    It's only a 6-hour drive or so from y'all...

    I've pretty firmly decided on lc80 axles. But finding them or a rilled/totalled donor is near impossible.
    So I occasionally consider jeep dana 44s and quickly decide I'm to masochistic for a drivers *side* drop lol

    I'll have to check that yard. Cool video!
