    How about first completely operable truck on the road?


    Or the truck that has the ability to go wheeling more than once without breaking after it returns to service?

    They're sitting on the shelf. @time2getdirty seemed to want them, but never got a hold of me.

    They need a rebuild, one is kinda rusty from being right behind my dumped exhaust, and the spherical bearings are shot.

    Was trying to get some beer out of them, although last time you said you'd get me some beer I never found any.... :boink:

    :thumbsup:

    Well, given my truck isn't broken all wheeling season, they actually got used. :luvya:





    It's mostly dirt and surface rust. They'd look a lot better with just a bit of cleaning. Don't see any rust/pitting in the shafts either.

    Well if you can't get rid of them, i may be interested in taking them off your hands. Those are the short body 12s yeah?

    No. Short body 10s.

    Well, I don't plan of keeping them, but I'll relay that to the next owner. Also, seen several people who convert the bearings to bushings to use on the stock mounting points of a 1st gen.

    It saw some trails last summer. Not nearly as much as I'd like but that comes with the territory of single dad dating a woman who really isn't into wheeling :/

    I'll make at least one dude trip this summer.

    Talk is cheap. Beer, not so much.
    Brings up a good point though, this transaction should take place on an official trail type run, all parties need be present.

    Damn I forgot about those.
    I just don't know how soon I can get over there. If someone else isn't ahead of me, I'd love to PayPal you beer and shipping money.... if not I apologize, my memory is pretty short now :/

    I'll update the bet terms.
