    Forgot to ask - did that come with the 232 or the 258 I6? If its the one I think I remember, its the 232?

    Yes I just bought it, and yes its the 232. Witch by the way was a pain in the *** to try and find a steering pump bracket for the 232.

    Posimoto, how does your d30 like those krawlers? I always ran krawlers on my rigs but a little worried with the 30.

    I'm easy on the skinny pedal and I have Alloy USA axleshafts with the D44 size u-joints, so no worries with the D30. If I had a V8 it might be a little sketchy though.

    I keep debating on wether or not to step up to 35's. I know the D27 probably would not last too long and I would need to go D30 at least or maybe even a D44. Decisions, decisions......

    Yes! Would love to know more! Can you post or PM me a link to your build? Especially interested in what you are doing to the frame to reinforce.

    I just seen your reply... I guess I better move my thread to this forum. The other forum wasn't as good as this one anyway...
