    It’s likely that I’ll be making a quick round trip from SW Minnesota to just east of Colorado Springs next week (October 16-18, or so).

    I’ll be in a one-ton pickup with a (full on the return) car hauler trailer behind.

    Anybody need stuff picked up or delivered? Lemme know!

    I like my truck as-is. At one point I would’ve considered really building it up, but the Comanches are getting fewer every day. Mine is very solid and I’d hate to cut the stock control arm mounts to fit a long arm setup.

    A bunch of this stuff sat in my “some day wheeler” pile but I don’t need another vehicle in my fleet.

    There’s a ‘parts’ CJ5 out there with what appears to be a decent tub. I need one for my project.

    There are some other goodies that are just gravy if I buy it.

    @neohic,

    That’s a nice setup but I don’t know of anyone in need of it.

    Update 20 October:

    The trip is back on! JB


    Well, I’m not going. The donor vehicle is worse than I expected. Darn.
