The reason is no one wants to finish the steering conversion since it requires fabbing. I removed the ram assist steering to convert to integral box and never finished it. Like an idiot I threw away the o.e. steering box so the truck has no steering whatsoever. It is a runner with a 360, NP435, disc brake low pinion Dana 60 front, Dana 60 rear, divorced transfer case. Truck is virtually rust free. I had it on Craigslist for $2500 and no one could come up with the cash. Several people said, "As soon as I sell my XXXXXX, I'll be there." You know how that goes. I haven't listed it in a while (since probably March) and am leaning more towards keeping it now (I'll probably sell one of my Bronco's instead since wife says SOMETHING has to go). Since I listed it last, I've installed a straight rust free bed and obtained an O.E. steering box so at least I can move the thing around. I'll add some more pics to my gallery.

So the wife says something has to go? Is she on the list of options to go?

Just chop some hot dogs up in it one night, then add hot sauce the next night - you know to change it up a bit

Suzy knows better than to even hint at getting rid of one of the "kids"

1 hour north of Frisco on 101. Just north of Santa Rosa. As far as the M & C, I add Cheddarwurst and about 2 cups of Tillamook sharp cheddar.

She would be at my house if she told me one of my trucks must go.

And to keep it on topic, the crew is nearing primer.
