| Engine: |
Rebuilt 351M with Edelbrock 600 4 barrel carb and intake. |
| Drivetrain: |
Drivetrain is stock for now, eventually going with Detroit locked 1-ton axles and driveshafts. |
| Notes: |
I used a 6.5" Skyjacker/Superlift combo with a 3" inch body lift. Tires are 38.5x14.5x15 Swamper Sx on primer coated 15x10 American Racing Outlaw I wheels. I gray primed the whole truck, I like the look, I call the color "Rebel Gray".
I bought this truck in my home state of California completely stock about 10 years ago as my first vehicle while in high school, and I've done all the work myself in my driveway with basic hand tools. |

I think North Dakota should have been branded "Big Sky Country", the sky up here on the prairie is as big and wide as I've ever seen.

Made the bumper myself (added the guard/"catcher"), according to how I think a truck bumper should look and function. Should stop a moose in its' tracks!
