[QUOTE="Eddyj, post: 356657, member: 3779"] Bought a chassis for less than a grand. Cut up a perfectly good one ton spring-over jeep that I had since high school. Traded the one ton axles for set of rockwells that appear to be in good shape. Started building. So now you know my backstory. I'm trying for a low and simple. Those are really my only two things I'm worried about. So with simple comes cheap. My drive line came out of a 79 one ton chevy that was used for pulling sleds at county fairs. 350 rebuilt on propane 4 speed 205 ( bought a ford 205 and put the front output in it) 42 TSL on mrw beadlocks Pinion brakes (apparently they are patoyee knock offs) :( Single brake pedal with duel master cylinders (bought off John G) :tc Steering is single ended ram mounted to flipped tie rod. Using steering column out of a bumper car. Rear mounted radiator Used 16 inch remote saw coilovers for rear. None for front yet. [/QUOTE]
