Thanks Ron . . . Nope , I don't like prunes . I am going to restore it back to what it was

Yeah, I knew you couldn't do that. Should be easy to find a new cab since it is a og 2wd.

Hey Infernal, is there enough wheelbase on that frame to fit a Double Cab on there? You know, your boys aren't going to get any smaller...........

What cage are you running? And how did it hold up? Glad all are good!!

Looks a little short for a double cab but an extracab.....

That was one of my thoughts at first but I would have to definitely stretch the frame and don't want to do that . I love the idea of my boys being enclosed .

Yeah , but I haven't seen very many cheap Doubble Cabs . That's the only problem

. But that would be awesome ! ! !

Cheapest one I found was in SLC , Utah . Light front end damage but really clean otherwise , $5,800 and someone had left a deposit on it .

So at this point it looks like I may just be building it back exactly the way it was

Threres a guy on Fresno craigslist with a 2wd 3.4 single cab with some front end damage. He says he'll take $350 for the cab with interior. Sounds like the cab is all he has left. Here's his number. 559-284-2031.

I'd post a link but I'm on my phone.

Good lookin' out , thank you ! ! ! $Beer Chug\'n$ . I will definitely check it out . I appreciate that .

No problem man, he sounds like a grouchy old man and wasn't too clear on how bad the damage was. But I hope it works out for ya.
