35" meats would be awesome on this thing ! Also, just found a D44 front 14 bolt rear for sale on CL for $700... with 5:13's already in em....

Yes, staying the weekend most definitly. I'll bring a quad if i can, we'll see. The '77 needs some work before she can hit the trails again. I'll take some pics of it when i go to the ranch next weekend.
Zuk is lookin awesome.

Zuki is goin, not much progress tho. Full tune up, all new fluids, new motor mounts. Made the flat bed. Bought some Yota axles, going sat. to pick em up. They probably wont be in by the trip, but i will try. Thats about it for now, hopefuly getting started on the SPOA soon.
Next, working on the cage. New seat is in the mail. shocks are on back-order.
Got the 31" tires sitting next to it.

the flat bed and some sort of cage will be done. Ya, rolling on 31's. I will have the spring over axle swap done. Already have the crazy dual shackle set-up done. Should have about 26"-30" of wheel travel. Thing is already getting flexy. Anything else will b if I hve time, and money to complete the install.
oh, and new steering

You don't have to beat on your rig. You could always drive up and ride with one of the other rigs.
I agree with Josiah tho, I wouldn't risk breaking with that long of a drive home. Although, with this trip we should have a ton of tools.
On another note, here is the front end Yota axles I got for the Zuki.
More pics later.
