Details?

It's a 1997 1500 with a newer 360 swapped in. The plan is to cut off the frame behind the rear hangers and make the bed a little nicer. Shackle flip the rear and lift the front with Peter's shit from his Dodge. Probably run some 35s and weld the rear. And also some sliders and my winch.

The truck runs great, and has tons of power. I drove it home from Moneta about an hour and a half so it was a steal for $750.

Nice, are you going to take it home to build it or do it up here? Going to be ready for Harlan?

The plan is to build it here in time for Harlan. I'm at the dilemma of going 60s and running my iroks or just finding some 35s.

Nice, yeah that was a good deal I thought. You should groove them to get a little more out of them.

Yea this weekend the dodge will get plenty of cutting and lifting hopefully to put them on there. For the rear i'm going to do a shackle flip.

Matt I'm planning on grooving them pretty good, they aren't the best but they aren't bald atleast and weren't 4 hours away.

Nice yeah that was too good of a deal to pass up and even better to be here in bburg

Well after an all night wrench fest i've got atleast the front of the dodge lifted. Jake and I started pulling Peter's lift around 6 and got everything swapped and put in mine by a little after 3. I'm still waiting on the shackle flip for the rear and i'll need to figure out shocks. I also got new ujoints swapped in my front shafts this afternoon so it's definitely coming together for my goal of Harlan. Thanks Peter and Alec for letting me use your shit, it was way better than wrestling with it in the foxridge parking lot.
