I own the Gov't Mule that was in the "Four Wheeler" magazine Top Truck Challenge back in 1999. It has been wheeling all this time and is a true Ford truck with a full frame still being used. Ford engine, transmission and two transfer cases however the axles are now rockwells.

Just wanted to post up and ask for fellow Ford enthusiasts to vote for us if you get the Four Wheeler magazine.

I would love to show them an old Ford big block and 4 speed can take on the newer fuel injected all aluminum engines with automatics.

currently getting the Rockwell axles installed:


what it looked like at Christmas before I pulled the axles out:

 

oh my god that's a beast!!! i love it, i would love to drive that thing around town here, people would get the hell outta my way!

 

Thats awesome man, should put up the link so people can vote ya in again.

 

Kick. ***. I need more pics! Do you have a page on the build of it?

EDIT: Found this googling..HOPE YOU DONT MIND! I think others might be interested in the beast.

Thanks for posting up the link Madula. This rebuild happening right now will make it unstoppable.

 

I remember this truck. Really cool.

 

Thanks.

Not many rigs last long once they become dedicated trail rigs. This one was built right and has been wheeling hard since it got its newer body in 99. Previously it was a 79 Bronco. If this one ever gets trashed who knows what Ford body could go on it next?

 

I remember this thing in TTC '99. I also got to see it in person at Rocktoberfest in Cass, AR in probably 01 or 02.
