Welcome to Grace :!: We have several full size wheelers here...some of them have full size rigs as well :wink:

[Gordon]

Welcome aboard, brother. Glad you're here with us.

[Bluegill]

Welcome to Grace! :grin: Guess I'm one of those with a full sized rig. :wink:

[Hokie_YJ]

I think that'd make me a full size wheeler, with a not quite full size rig. :lol:

Welcome to Grace!

[BroncoMike]

look for a build up coming this winter :twisted: (and i am taking advice) :wink:

[BillM]

Looking forward to it. As for the advice.......



















trade it for a Chevy...... Sorry I am just kidding. Little thing between the Chevy and Ford boys around here.

[hulk]

i guess i should let the cat out of the bag. i'm a chevy man my daily is a 01 silverado. as far as a trail truck it's the best my budget could do :oops:

[Bluegill]

:shock: Man, if that Ford was a shortbed half ton........it would look just like the first truck I ever drove unassisted (12yrs old at the time) :oops: It was a '73 and I tore up my grandfather's field with it. :lol: :lol: :roll:

I certainly feel you on the tight budget part, that's why I chose a full sized Jeep for my rig. I've got less than 2k total in it. :wink:

Looking forward to seeing the build up, and wheeling with ya! :grin:

[Hokie_YJ]

My dad used to have a '73 shortbed half-ton that same color.

[BillM]

I was just messin Hulk....I own a Ford myself. Have owned 2 others too. It's all good though. I like it.

[hulk]

i'm look foward to wheeling with u guys. it nice to find a group of people who love God and wheeling. i guess i should warn u guys i'm new to this wheeling thing :shock:

[BroncoMike]

Nice truck hulk!

[Alex_J's_TJ]

Welcome Aboard!!

[SamuraiGuyTN]

drives a chevy and wheels a ford, sounds just like BroncoMike. :lol:

[BillM]

Mike needs to make sure he can get home.... :lol:

[BroncoMike]

I like my Chevy but I still bleed oval blue. :wink:

[BillM]

You need to see a doctor about that then. :shock:

[R.E.C.O.N.45]

Its ok, he is part smurf. They have blue blood too. :P Good Luck with the build. Long beds are a little tricky on the trails. Long body and light in the rear, makes you have to use some skills offroad I am a fullsize Blazer runner and I do not care ford, chevy, toyota, whatever. I wish VW had a good offroad vehicle thats affordable. I would trade both my cars for this: :grin:

[hulk]

yea the long bed is going to make it fun :grin: one day i would like to shorten it and do a flat bed. but first i need some welding skills :shock:

WELCOME TO GRACE

[Want2Wheel]

Here you don't need skill, you just need friends with skill. You found the friends. What do you want to do?

[hulk]

well i would like to shorten the wheel base to a reasonable length. flat bed, custom bumpers front and rear, rock sliders,roll cage, fuel cell(thought about propane but it's a smog motor with no compression anyway)6 inch lift(superduty front springs and i have herd that u can use chevy rear springs)36s or 38s, beads locks,detroit locker rear, open front (maybe the d44 will live :lol: ) 4.56 gear (still have to drive it to the trail head) and twin stick transfer case. i know what happen to the budget. i'm looking to get this done over time not tomorrow :grin: i will start on it in november i think :twisted: and it will never be finished

WELCOME TO GRACE NICE TRUCK :!:
