Install new third in the front and rest of lift for the time being. In the near future hopefully install duals and new 33's.

I have sone this. Best with dual battery. ..gm alternator..... otherwise just do it and enjoy it. Just set ur truck on a hill. If you have a stereo with an amp it will negatively effect the amp by contuionously draining the battery. There are some aolar options as well . .

I am building an inverter into my rear sleeping platform/drawer system. It is just a 450 watt but may get upgraded if I find I need more than 4 amps.

Rebuild 22r carb, install adapter for 22r carb on 20r manifold, remove weber and throw at rowdy hobo.

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!
