1990 3/4t 4x4 Getrag REVIVAL!

So i bought the truck for $2500 canadian. Brought it home last sunday. It has the usual wear and tear and has 650,000km on the odo, but im not worried about that. Needs seals everywhere and new cab, box and transfer case rebuild because itwill not shift into 4H and the linkage is really sloppy all over. Tranny shifts fine except for 3rd synchro but im used to it after only driving it for a few hours around the house. Frame is really solid. I'm only 16 so this is a big project for me. And it wont be driven till october so this will stretch on for a while. Got some pics of when i got the truck and from last night:

The bumper was a major PITA because one of the previous owners welded the aftermarket hitch to the bumper mounts and over the holes in the frame to reach the box bolts so we yanked the bumper off with the bobcat and a chain after a couple times of draggin the truck backwards we got er off. and as it sits now with box and bumper removed:

beleive me, another box won't be going on for a few months. it will get all new plumbing and a good pump to keep the fuel up there. im doing this once and im doing it right.

so i bought 2 more parts trucks. both gas 2wd auto's. so the cab floors will need reworking for my tranny and transfercase. both seem to have good cabs. 4 good doors. one good box. and one has the elusive ram head and one has a good drivetrain for a second truck to put together which my ex wants pics from last nights work will follow
