Looks good and clean. Fender flares are not my cup o tea. Any plans for this beast? Specs/mods to list?
@Wh1t3: Looks like a lot of fun! Of course a solid axle would land up front. My '95 has the 60 up front, so I would probably use that to start with, because I have it. I would really like something better though (non cad, high pinion, hell kingpins while I'm dreaming...) . I really like the idea of an NV4500 in a durango though 
just need a place to do this stuff, and a bit of money for fab tools/supplies. I have found 5.9 durangos on craigslist with good bodies for $1200 and even less sometimes. The size of a durango would be much better for the tight mountain trails I like to wheel. I would use minimal offset wheels to keep width reasonable under the smaller suv.

well if thats the case
d70 is too much work to make fit. center section is longer, so i would have to bring the d-shaft to a driveline shop. besides, id rather have matching axles. i dont need that strong of an axle anyways.
also, its too damn cold, and i dont have a garage to work in. it barely cracked 30 today, and its supposed to get to single digits, maybe even below zero tonight.

Agree.. I use my phone for 90% of my picture taking.. It takes just as good of pictures as my digital camera does... The camera used to stay in the truck for the occasional picture or video of something cool that was happening.

So here are some towing pics... Not the heaviest load, but these bales WERE pretty heavy... So this is considered a "small" load of bales...
Here's the trailer being loaded:
Trailer loaded and strapped:
Not only does the trailer get loaded, but the longbox as well (note also the bash in the door, that's where the deer hit it several years ago):
Like I said this is a light and small load of bales... Gotta love that long trailer, longbox and crew cab! Oh, and that was with the old tires... Now it has 10-plies...

When the twine pops on a bale it gets set to the side to be thrown into the truck bed (usually). Can't have any kittywompus or twine snapped bales on the trailer otherwise it isn't secure enough to load high. While that load is 5 high, our loads are now 7 high and much tighter.
