    No Fucks Given 82 4x4 Pickup Build.

    Bought ChamYota's 82 4x4 Long bed. It is ugly, suspension is questionable, engine is unknown, funds are minimal. After bouncing between a big restore and expo build or a chopped up crawler, I've settled closer to Crawler while still having street legal.

    Brought truck back from SC yesterday to find that the floor pan and steering were screwed beyond my current tool and patience level to fix. Gave the damn truck away and moving on to better things.

    Not kidding. Gave truck to another TW member who already has a first gen pickup. There was more wrong with the truck than I was aware of or prepared to deal with. Also wasn't going to sink a couple grand into something I wasn't confident in. After pricing out rebuilds, replacements, repairs etc I hit my personal limit of deminishing returns. Instead of screwing with a rust bucket, I'm ordering a Goat Built tube chassis and going to build an actual crawler. Still going to base it around Toyota running gear, either a Turbo 22R on propane or maybe something newer and fuel injected. Rock Assault 8in housings, full hydro steering, and ADS coilovers.
