Cool! Welcome!

As to the title, they generally type down whatever I say lol. I don't lose alot of sleep when I get a weird one as long as the VIN matches the dash.

Thanks guys .
Update , 4x4 works , I’m just a newbie loser to 4x4 , only goes , 4lo, N ,2 hi ,4 hi.......I hate this shifter still lol...
, did the calipers and pads on the front had to shave off the bump on the drivers side caliper idk if they kept giving me the wrong one or what , but lol their both on , I’ll post more pics as I do things to it.
Still no update on the rear light wiring ,
Adjusted the timing by ear after being given advice , sounds better and now downshifts and has more ass....
But am soon to put in new plugs wires, rotor button distributor cap and ignition coil. I’ll post those too but here a few pics of the caliper brand new. I’ll have to get rotors later , pretty sure at least one is warped but take not of the leaf springs and shocks... they look a little flat and rusty ,
should I replace straight away or should they last awhile?

Ok the pics won’t load , I’m in a holler lmfao , will have to upload when I’m on wifi

Welcome to the site. Be sure to check your breather tubes for the diffs if you plan on doing a lot of playing in the water.
only seen one

Welcome, from Eastern Montana.
Yeah for sure on those differential breather tubes, they get busted and even the humidity in the air will rust out those differential side bearings. Its a long story so I`ll now stop right there. :happy160::happy175::happy175::happy175:

Oh great I’ll keep a look out
