If you want newer rims go thru 4WheelParts out of Charlotte. They give dicounts to the Military too. I got 17x9 Pro Comp Rock Crawlers in flat blk for less than what they advertise online. Where did the D44 come from? Do you want to rebuild your 5.8? Its a great engine with a better cam and right gears. ZF is a great choice, I think you will need a 208 or 205 from a 78-79 FSB or truck. Which trans do you have in there right now?
Flattened the b-ball. Slid it up inside the quarter panel and added air slowly. Pushed a good portion of the dent out.
The d44 came from a 78 bronco. We are talking about the 5.8 right now, I have a freshly built 331 sitting on a stand in the garage. debating a cam change and dropping it in instead of the 5.8. As for the transfer case, we have been talking about a possible divorced transfer case. We'l be doing some measuring over the next few weeks to see what we can do. There is still a lot of things being planned and a lot that is still being tossed around.
