Lee (AKA HotDawg) is still at Luke. The grill guard is of a 2000 chevy suburban and I made it into a full replacement. Looks better on a 1st gen than on the chevy. Only has a 3" body lift to clear the Allison.

I'll take the stacks when you dump them. I've always wanted them but the 3 kids I have stop that pretty quick. I haven't talked to Lee (HOTDAWG) since I left for Korea.

To Korea. How is your truck with the body lift? I heard that it is harder to keep the engine cool.

I think thats were he is going but not sure. It works fine and never had a fan shroud and hardly gets past thermostat temp with new rad. I think it will look funny with some 33's or so for the pulls in DeLion but the 38's don't help for the pulls. did you see the chevy he put a 4B in? This counts as a 1st gen right? Its got a VE pump. I also put a 6B air it water P-pump in a Jeep M-715 and a 4B air to water in a Jeep TJ.

Thanks. The Line-X is really the best part of it. You can drive through brush without concerns of scratching a costly painjob or worry about peoples car doors leaving dings in the body.

Thats the first time I've seen it with a 4B. I think it had a small block last time I saw it. I think I might do the body lift on mine.

Yeah, you should make him pay for it. Maybe then he'll be broke and wont be able to buy whiskey and ziggenbock and cause so much trouble.

It was less than $100 from Energy Suspension. Shows to be for gas only but it don't matter becous it dosn't come with drop down brackets for the rad any way so you just adjust the i/c tubes and rad houses and your in good shape. I would have to trim the finders just a little if I realy want to run the 38x15.50's with out rubbing but its stock other than that. If they were not so wide they wouldn't rub at all.

How well does that 4B push that full size? I have always been interested in that motor for a smaller application.

Here is my 92 W350 that I sold last year cause I didn't think I needed it anymore. Stupid!! Wish I had it back now and I am now looking for one to replace it.




And here is my super clean all original unmolested 93 D250 that I bought from the old man who bought it new and kept in the garage and never put a trailer hitch on it.
