Nice setup mech! More pics of both the plow and wrecker setup would be awesome! Every now and then I see an IDI wrecker for sale, would love to get one in time, but so far the funds have never been there when they've came available.
Was your truck a cab and chassis, so it has the narrower frame and rear end, or was it a factory box on it?

my interior trim has REAL wood and is going to be very annoying to fix up as it was original to the truck in 88', the tv has long since been removed and the original boomerang tv antenna broken off so i am putting a shell on(non working to save money since i dont plan to put a tv in the back).
