First 2 weeks in Jun I have mandatory vacation. I'm going camping! Anyone who wants to come feel free to join. Gonna go out past bowman lake to my favorite spot at a little lake called sawmill lake. I'll have lots of beer and enough food to survive. I'll have some dirt bikes and maybe quads to rip around on too. Not sure on dates yet.

Wes you better come out!

I've got a small block ZF 5 speed for sale if anyone's looking. All it needs is a shifter. It works fine but it's starting to grind when you shift fast to second gear.
$500
I have a good used synchro ring for it also.

That would be a good trade as long as the sploder is in the same condition

Eh it's a little rough but my truck isn't perfect by any means. The thing is it has a lot of the stuff I wanna do. It will save me a ton of money and I could always swap the running gear into a ranger later.

So I've got a line on a Early Bronco...
Toying with the idea of scrapping the ranger and putting all my goodies in the EB. Opinions?
