    GL ads are back

    you can beat around the bush but do not say where it's where abouts are, what site it is from, or show any pictures that may or may not lead to where it is... I've had three bid items posted on here in the last month or so that weren't being bidded on until someone posts something about them...

    4.10 or 3.73 ?

    My 2cents 4.10, I've been very happy running 4.10 in my trucks. And if you ever go bigger tires 3.73 are going to kill you.

    need cost estimates for 1028 and 715...

    I'd say buy them both! Honestly, they are both great looking trucks, very easily restorable and easy fixes on them.... Then again I guess just depends on how much they are asking and what the pocket book says... But great trucks! where are they exactly ;-)
