Re: Rear Lockers...

I've had lockers installed before. The current B190 build I am doing involved a whole axle swap from an F350 that had Ford's original locking unit in it. The donor truck had a ton of miles on it, so I am replacing it with a Trutrac unit. Lots of reviews out there supporting the drivewability and fun...

Re: Another U Joint from today May 2021

You can still order all the parts from U-joint so you get their engineering, their springs, their steering, etc. You could technically do it yourself, but I ended up hiring a know 4x4 fabrication shop to install it all, knowing they have lots of experience with this kind of custom work.

Re: 1995 B190 that ended up being a total restoration and a 4x4 build

So an update with costs for those wondering (I have been asked this a few times and do not mind sharing)- Axles are done and back home. HEAVY even after I stripped off everything I could. I went with a Dana 60 from an 03 F250 in the front with an E-locker and 4.56 gears and a 2006 F250 Sterling 10.5...

1995 B190 that ended up being a total restoration and a 4x4 build

FB_IMG_1630251171409.jpg I bought a 1995 B190 from a wonderful lady in Alabama. It has something like 175K on it. Unfortunately, it needed work and she let it sit for something like 4 years. The skylight and the windows leaked during that time, ruining the headliner, mattress, and rotting some wood...

New B190, but an experienced Airstreamer

Hello, Buying a 1995 B190 out of Alabama that isn't running. I have had an Airstream trailer for years and had a bunch of adventures with it. I am trying to find a trailer big enough to winch it on and haul it back to me in Charlotte, but nobody rents one that big. Hopefully I can figure that out an...
