all this talk about D44 vs D60 made me go and check to make sure it had a D60 still under it sure enough it does... door tag for axle is 37 which means 3.54 gear ratio D60.just to be on safe side i decided to check the axle tag on pumpkin same under there- 9/16th bolts and tag read 3.54 and axle code was- 610023-2... How big of tires can a d60 handle comfortably?

Depend's what you are doing with the truck.... in somethings you may kill it with 38's in some you may run 54" bogger's with no issue's... all depends on if/how much it is built, how it is drove, and what kinda terrain

it will be spending most of its time at pipeline near Crivitz WI, and a few mud racing events.

it started out as being revived from sitting for 8 yrs




this was after replacing the grille and some paint. the bumper on front is from the previous owner he had a hitch of some sort on front which he used to pull/push hay wagons.
this is after i removed the rusted shackles and hangers
when i first got it the hanger was rusted out so previous owner had a chain to hold it in place

The flatbed had to be removed to gain access to working on the leafs and boards were rotted.
