Re: Good enough for Tellico?

What exactly are you asking?

Good enough to wheel there?

What are the drive train specs? Lift/tire/gear ratio...etc.

Liking the pics eitherway.

Re: Good enough for Tellico?

Hey South, the truck came out really nice. Looks like it's trail ready to me! Go try it out and send back pics.

I think the color looks great, don't see to many in tan, almost looks like it served in Desert Storm-Shock and Awl

More of a statement I guess, cause if it's not ready by now it won't be ready.
For drivetrain it has:
350/465/205
14b/detroit
60/lockright
4.56's
56" rear springs
37 ssrs.

Sounds good, now go test it out.

I agree with the others, that color looks great on a jimmy.
