I presently own a D1. I use it mostly onroad, but alot of offroad. I live in Alberta. There is a couple of old series LDs for sale. The question that I have, is it easy to modify these things. I currently have cheap access to a Chev 305 and a Chev 350 engine. Also I can get Dana 44s for cheap. I would like to lift one and cut the fenders alot. I want to get at least a 35 bogger on there, if at all possibe. Along with some lockers. My buddy has a TJ lifted 6 inches with lockers and boggers, spring mud is coming and I need to beat him. Especially with a LAND ROVER, with he thinks is not possible. And feedback or help would be great. Thanks Sean | ||

Sean: The Series trucks are incredibly easy to do just what you have suggested. Terri Ann Wakeman has a small block Ford in her truck. Mike Slade has a small block Chevy in his Series one and in his 130 Ice Cream Truck. Timm Cooper has a small block Chevy in his series one. If you are a competent welder/fabricator, you can do anything with a Series truck. I'm currently building one that may have a '94 3.9 in it. Oh yeah, Adam Way has a Dana axle beneath his Range Rover. Peace, Paul |
