1981 w150 club cab fun truck
Hear is my 81 cheap build fun truck. The wife and I both have several other rigs projects.
The truck belonged to my father in law he was a very avid hunter and outdoors man. The truck just got parked 3 yearsyears due to the clutch not working. He got sick shortly after and passed a year ago. We recently moved back to Montana and my wife and I both felt he would want it back in the woods. So hear is what we got.
1981 w150 club cab 360 435 208 44 front 9.25 rear 3.21 gears and limited slips front and rear.
What its gotten so far. Started with your standard trucks been sitting tune up oil change fuel pump. That got it running good for a 42 year old truck. The clutch fix was easy the clip for the rod had broken turns out I had one in my tool box.
Next is a 4" lift to replace the trashed leaf springs. 37" pitbull rockers Red Head box cross over steering and arg ram assist. And some better seats. All im currently wating on is the rest of the lift to show up.
All things he wanted to do just never could. Lpp

Not a dodge but I managed to burry my gmc denali in the snow. Best part is my winch stopped working so I had to wait 6 hours for rescue

Today's project was to swap steering boxes.
So out with the old crusty and in with the new used ported box
I got the box used from a buddy in TX that I also got the wheels and tires passenger knuckle and cross over. Alot of old parts of his Ramcharger as he's going 1tons and 44s full hydro.
