cntryboy_88 Posted May 18, 2016 Author Share Posted May 18, 2016 Well the Betsy build is coming to the end and she will soon see the junkyard...however a new r50 that has yet to be named will take her place...swapping my lift and all my parts to the new truck and will hopefully be able to hit some trails by the summer time!

mjotrainbrain Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 It's too bad you had to give up on Betsy after so many months working on this major update, but it'll be nice to have a clean slate to work off of! The new truck looks real clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cntryboy_88 Posted May 21, 2016 Author Share Posted May 21, 2016 Well a little update here...haven't decided what I want to name the new one yet so yall should throw some names out one might stick...got my roof rack transfered over tonight...gonna do the manual locking hubs tomorrow...and probably the cv and axles...I'll be removing parts from Betsy as I get time but hopefully not to long...I am swapping gears the new one has the 4.3 gears and Betsy has 4.6 so I'm taking the better ones Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjotrainbrain Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I'm not good with names, so don't count on any ideas from me! Gear swap will be quite the job. You should post pics of the transformation, even if it's 'just' swapping parts over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Just wait on a name and one will happen. Mine was named Squatchy while deer hunting last year while my buddy and i were joking about sasquatch hunting in it. The name will come Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
