Buying A Complete 3rd?
« on: Nov 29, 2005, 04:05:08 PM »
Hey guys,
Im planing a comlete over haul of my truck for next summer, so I figure I will start the research now. I was wondering if anyone here has used a comlete third member, from say Marlin. Here is an example. http://marlincrawler.com/3rd_pickup.html . I am not overly proficient with the gears and whatnot,so I figure if I can save some time and effort by getting a third all ready set up with the detroit and 5.29's. Has anyone here used these, and if so, how did they work out? I plan on buying the 5.29's for the back and welding the carrier, or having it welded and paying close attention. The third I would buy would be for the front. Thanks in advance,

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I would only be buying one for the front. I would get the 5.29's with the detroit, but my mind is open to other suggestions. The rear I have and could just weld up and put the 5.29's in. I am in Massachusetts, ZIP 01913. Thanks.
