I picked up what is left of an "84", but it looks more like another 81 from the narrow tracks and shock towers and other 81 type features... definitely pre-82... also stopped and saw some Jeep friends and got a few goodies for the build... so that was Saturday and yesterday I put stuff away, cleaned up, and swept the floor multiple times
for as paper thin as that bed is, they just took angle iron and welded it in places to make it rigid, then welded it to the muffler hanger as well as cross braces... it really is a maze of just trying to get something fixed to pass inspection.
The driveshaft is by far the most pitted of any one I have seen so far.
