Hey everyone, I'm obviously new to the site. I recently purchased a 1981 Sr5 4x4 long bed and it so far there been no end of problems with it; blown clutch, bad starter, cracked radiator, blown head gasket, and probably more to come. Luckily I picked her up for $700 with all her parts and am slowly working on bringing her back up to road worthiness. My plans for her are just a mild 4x4 machine as I will be daily driving it to work. So far I have just been collecting parts such as the Chevy 63" springs and Weber 32/36. If anyone is selling a header I'm looking for one as my exhaust manifold has a 4" crack in it.

I'm in the Milwaukie/Clackamas area of Portland. Thanks for the warm welcome from everyone. The truck is coming along well, as I have been able to drive it around the block a couple of times without it blowing up.

Here's some pics of it when I first picked it up.

  from Eugene. If you need any gear work (tranny,transfer,diffs ect) your in luck. There is a guy right there in the clack that does great work on the side at very reasonable prices.
