    Stuff. Also things.
    If you’re selling your spindles, I’d be interested. LCAs too. Shit, CVs and anything else for that matter.

    You just picked up tons, didn’t you?

    Gusseted spindles with almost new OEM wheel bearings.
    Solo LCAs
    Freshly rebooted OEM CVs

    That's just the start. Coilovers, UCAs, Rear Shocks, Leafs, Front diff with ARB, rear diff/housing/chromoly shafts, Tundra brakes, etc. etc.

    I have the 14b rear, still in the market for a D60 front. I'm not exactly in a rush though.

    Currently? 4.88s

    I think the front diff was the very first thing spoken for. Tentatively of course.

    No need to rush. I’m forever too late to part outs, so I figured I’d jump in early :D

    You going with a KP60 or SD60?

    It's been in the works for a while.

    My (cough) 2nd gen will make a better adventure rig, and the SASed 1st gen a better crawler. Win-win.

    They look great. Have you looked for back wall carpet? I went from not having it to having it. Makes a huge difference on noise.

    planning on building the 1st gen for usable highway driving? towing it with the 2nd gen will be.....a disaster

    I haven't thought about it, but I like that idea. Where did you get yours?

    I'm going to try to go look at it early next week. It has to have enough good parts on it to make it worth it.

    A truck cap that makes you look like an SUV. Interesting
    I saw a photo of an F-150 once with a cap that made it genuinely look like an SUV if you didn't pay attention.

    I found it:
