it looks a lil rough for 3g's in my opinion, Is the bed twisted or is that the frame. i would do a lil more research. you will have more problems than fun.

I found a 86 chevy 454 5 spd K30 last year that was a old fire truck, paid 1500 for it sold 1 week later for 3000 and it was twice as nice as that but not on 44s. I don't like the driveline angles at ALL.

Dual T's are nice, but that set-up looks a little haggard.... never heard the term "swinging case" before Does it move under load? Truck looks good, but not for 3K....let the search continue...

Well I asked him if it would be ok for a daily driver or what and this was his reply

definately not. this truck was built for the mud. with the dual cases and the 456 gears in the axles the truck will top out around 20 when the cases are engaged andi only have it set up where 1 case can be engaged and disengaged. the swinging 205 case is always engaged and i dont have linkage between the two. if you no anyone that wants something for the woods or the mud this truck is the way to go.

If you're really looking for a mud truck or something look on chuckstrucks.net. A lot more stuff like that on there.
