Finally forced myself to work on it last night so that I could get it off the trailer tonight.

Threw together a quick crossmember and rear mount also to support it. Don’t mind some of the welds. My buddies welder doesn’t get along with me sometimes.

It’ll move under its own power now so that’s a bonus. Just on to fixing all the other little shit now and finding wheels and tires.

Drive it around the yard for the first time. You’ll never guess what. It rides like a pulling truck in the rear haha

Well, you could always start that hobby, Corbin. Ya know, if you really want to spend cubic yards of money....;)

Spent a few hours on it yesterday. Pulled the rear block, installed a shackle so it actually has reR suspension now. Pulled the 1” block out of the front and two leaf springs to match the 2” the rear dropped. Much happier with its height now that It’s not such a monster truck. Installed front shocks and drove it around the yard some.

Before

After, hoping the front settles some
