Some R&D aye! The last rig I bought for R&D turned into quite a monster. You can certainly have a lot of fun playing around with these rigs. My one turned into my best rig yet. Good luck and have fun with it. Some spec's at bottom in signature.
1600 Escudo / Kick, beam front, coils all round, 37 MTR's, 97" wheelbase, locked fr & rr,twin stick, front stock ratio, Calmini 5.14 t box rear, Warn XD9000i winch, blah blah!

2.0 V6 auto, Calmini 3" kit, 33" jandles, LT struts, blah blah

2.5 V6 man GV, Calmini 2.5" kit, 235/85x16 jandle

Were are you at, and how much for wheels and tires? and what size ring and pinion?
All things must start and end, the key is to not let them start and end in the same place.

Other rigs, 84 Sub 305 High output dana 44 front dana 60 rear turbo 350 tranny, 205 gear drive transfer, 10" lift 38.5 swampers

The steering is scaring me, But the other looks reasonable.  CV's laying on the A-arms?

Could be cleaned up with a little effort.

Looks like he had a good $30 - $50 or less in the whole 4" lift.

I'd finish beating  it into the ground before parting it out.

     How much for the 5.12s? I'd want them shipped in diff,though. Have no way to re-set gear-lash.Shipped to Ky 42120?
