A rockwell only on one end?

I can't imagine the gearing matching up to enable 4wd... :confused:


Cool looking rig Hodgie...

gears

Well it's final... 4.88's, install kits, knuckle rebuild kit, and a lock rite should be here the end of the week... Got a great deal... A guy on IH8MUD got a group buy together from http://www.justdifferentials.com/ and i got all those parts to my door for less than a grand...;) saving me about 400 bones...

Nothing better than a big box of parts to keep the motivation up....

Good to see a 60 in these parts, few and far between.
As a founding member of Rice you must have known Paul E. Whatever became of him, I lost track of the Rice gang several years ago.

they have all pretty much gone about different pathes...
I have not seen any of them in a long time too.. If you know Luke Bogner, I talk to him pretty often. Luke is the only member i have kept in touch with lately other than the chance sighting of some one when out around town.

Have we met? Just curious, seems there are not to many cruiser lovers around anymore that go wheeling these days...

I cant decide what I want to do. My mind changes every day but hopefully in the near future, I will either build a 62 or a Xj.
