I had a F150 with 375,000k on it and never once wen to a mechanic. I have access to welders, torches, and other metal fab equipment. Couple generic questions:
1. I'd like to swap the axles to 8 lug and the consensus is go with axles out of CUCV. What type of modifications are needed to accomplish this?
2. 24v vs 12v what is the better way to go?
3: Power steering, my girl is a jeep girl and would love to drive this. How difficult to fit it with power steering?
Sorry for the questions that you've probably answered many times.
Thanks again
