Red 81 CJ5, 35's, 4.10 and detroit, 4 to 1 dana 300, tbi efi, flat belly, cage, chromos and auzzie in front... sometimes runs. body damage to come
plan C- see big nasty thread for results
He who dies with the most **** wins, after seeing your collection you are in the lead no doubt!
plan D- remove all form of sheetmetal and build an f-toy style chassis
Plan F- Fawk it, trash everything but the drivetrain, put it in something smaller, (Early Scout) Rock out with your **** out.
Boats and hoes
Stumble in to the liquor store
With a dollar-fifty for a bottle of wine,
I know just what I'm lookin for
Thunderbird will do just fine.
For all those that keep saying the stock hanger flip won't be any good, get F-250/F-350 ones. The truck in question is a F-350, which I assume uses F-350 parts.
I think you should deffinitly do the f-toy thing, sink 5k+ into it, many long nights wrenching and never see a trail. Then sell the axles to me when you give up on it for pennies on the dollar.
or just wheel the piss out of it. and fawking lose the AC you girl.
The cab is already fooked, boatside it and wheel the piss out of it. If you put a new cab on it, you will end up not wanting to scratch it and that is no fun at all.![]()
I say go with a combination of b and c
you could narrow the front like i did the big nasty tyler to make it easier to get your tires up on stuff. It was a really easy mod and took about a 2-3 days of mild working on to do the most time consuming part was cutting the hood in three pieces and rewelding it, but you could jsut screw it together if you were lazy. Leave it full body you will get to enjoy the sound of crunching sheet metal.

Boatside the **** out of it and build some STOUT sliders. That is one of the best bang-for-the-buck mods I've done to Pigpen and it has really helped me squeeze down some tight trails I had no business being on.
On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"
i think you should strip it down to the frame and chassis, then narrow a bronco body and put on it. shouldnt take long at all.
i got to take a look at pig pen to get an idea of how high to go. im worried if i go too high, like to the top of the fenderwell, the floor board would be too squeezed to accomedate(sp) the clutch assembly, my feet in general, etc. but want to go high enough to make it worth while.
i need to look in big nasty as well. though about narrowing the front.
or if i had a full blown shop and unlimited funds. i could do a drive train swap. but since im building it, im going to try to improve on what i have to work with.
Build roll cage
boatside it with some good rockers
build a good flatbed to haul tools/ extra people
edit: some sort of BW1456?/NP 205 doubler
narrow the front so that you can see
wheel the piss out of it
Later:
buy longfield shafts for the front
buy 40s or 42s
roll it
scrap body/frame and put axles and tires on a EFI ford ranger body
