i acquired some fairly well used 39.5 iroks for dirt cheap..... then proceded to spend more money on 16" wheels to make em fit then the tires cost..

I had to wait nearly 3 months for the wheels to be custom made to my specs, 16x10 2" backspacing.  (i have no spring to tire interference)
while the waiting was happening the truck went under the knife again.... first a couple small things... tailgate from a ranger




simple hinges as this modification is just cosmetic and to keep my junk in the back

then things got a bit more serious, i received a dual case adapter.... (i know i know, but it was less than cheap from a third hand source and was not even used)
so i proceeded to adapt a forward shift case to top shift, modify my twin stick to shift it, and make my own cross member...







floor blueprints.   lol everytime












....... yet again had to modify my drivelines, this time i took the cv out of the front.... and obviously had to shorten my rear, the two drivelines are now within inches of being the same length

Those are some huge welds!

Tillamook, OR
