[QUOTE="toreadorranger, post: 581564, member: 4591"] I recently parted out my buggy I was building and picked up a 1988 F250 7.3L IDI from a guy at work for $1500. It was going to be my winter beater but I decided to make a woods truck out of it instead. Its a Regular Cab Long bed, plans are to leave the wheel base alone and bob the bed. Going to build an internal cage. Major specs as follows 7.3L IDI non turbo diesel, 5speed ZF, Bronco BW1356 (fixed yoke) D60, 35 spline outers, spartan locker Sterling 10.25 Welded 38.5" SX on recentered H1's Plan is to run the suspension all stock for now and cut the fenders for tire clearance.
