I am wanting somthing with the removable top. I have had several Jeep Wranglers and really like the open top ride for summer. I m lloking to go full size for the extra room.. I had a sweet 74 scout II but it was to gard to find parts for it so I sold it. How hard is it to get parts for the 74 to 80 RC's? The only other truck I am considering is the Jimmy or Blazer, and hell you can just about go anywhere and get parts for them. But I really like the look of the RC's. Im really trying to find out all I can so I dont have another parts shortage like the scout. Also what sould I stay away from option wise? Is there a certain transmission ot t case I should look out for. What about lift kits are they as common as the older leaf sprung GM trucks?


Thanks

 

depends on your location if you live in TX you can find plenty (right next to Mexico), somewhere else, they'll prob. be a little more scarse.K-5 or Jimmy is defietly more common. Parts are pretty simple to interchange with any other RC or dodge truck of the same generation or similar. Lift kits on a 4x4 model are just spings and blocks, pretty easy. I'd get a newer Aerican version with a Magnum engine, easier to work with than the LA's. If it's off road only, take a trip to Mexico and there every where.
