    Should be cool. Hopefully the truck sells soon.

    I have a 3 or 4' Firestick if you want it. It's black, twist top.

    I rolled up to Torfab for them to go through it and the first thing I hear is "You can't buy that its the same color as Andrews!". Ill probably end up wrapping it at some point but it will be very similar to his LC. But yeah ill take that firestick if its 3ft, 4ft might be a bit big.. also the yeti if you still have it.

    Lots of bolt on chrome stuff
    Subd. Curious to see if you or @loco finishes first.

    Those LC80s have tough stock diffs? I saw the plan for regear and chromo shafts, but that's all you'll need for 4Ds?

    9.5" full float rear and 8" high pinion front. Plenty strong as long as you are going forward lol can't pull anyone out in reverse.
    Chromo shafts and birfields up front is all you need, but the new hellfire knuckles are much stronger and for 40's are highly recommended

    @TheNatural oh and 1 ton steering. Probably do hydro assist too but undecided. It isn't needed but with the hellfire knuckles it sets it all up, just have to have the steering box tapped for it

    Eventually I'll start working on mine to get 40s
