hear is the start of the moose. 60 front, 14bolt rear, 42'' pits, 22re and duals with 4.7

the plan was to start out with this chassie and add the one tons and link the front.

he got it all together and broke an axel the first run. so he decided he wanted 60s swaped. then decided he wanted to link the front while he was haveing me do the swap. next we decided to redo the whole front clip to lower it down some and cut the frame off and tube from the fire wall forward. so i started striping it and the chassie is not worth the work . he built the chassie with a grinder, 110 fluxcore welder and never welded before. not to bad for what he was working with but just wasnt going to work. so he gave me a pile of cash to build a new one. swing by the house and look at the chassie u will understand.
