Here is my 1988 Extra Cab 4x4. Picked up in Feb with 238K miles on the motor, and it was rebuild at 207K miles. It is essentially stock with just Downey leaves in the rear. Here are my plans for the truck this year. I am also going to let my roommate practice painting on it so that will be my repaint.

My Spring Break project is to sand and primer all the surface rust spots. My roommate wants to paint it in April or May. So this will be a prep job till then. Im also going to paint the bottom half and the front bumper black with Rust-Oleum matted finish.

Well found out that all most of the steering is all messed up. So I will be replaceing all 4 Tie-Rods, the pit man arm, idler arm and all 4 ball joints. I will also be putting on a 1.5" BJ Spacer lift and removing the sway-bar to get some more flex out of it. I will be putting 33x10.50 BFG MT KM2's and after that will come Yukon 5.29 Gears and an Aussie Locker
