x2! and by chance did you get this off ebay from a fellow named Eric Doudrick (sp?) I bought an lt95 overdrive from him and never received some parts.
My stage 1 project should be finally complete within this month...

This Stage 1 is alive and well in So. Cal. (As Firemanshort already knows...)

It's had a lot of small mechanical things tended to, a winch has been added, a second spare tire, a roof rack, 1 ton shackles for a slightly higher lift, a new exhaust system and a slew of other small items. It was a nice truck when I got it and after a year or so, it has several trips to Arizona and Baja under it's belt. Using it as a DD, so there's always a little list going of things to improve. Very well sorted and lots of fun.

Forgot to mention the lights... They make a big difference in Baja at night.
