Just had a thought you may not want to tow it either lol. How would you stop it from hitting your truck if it has no brakes?

Don't try the swap... way to much work. I helped do that on a 96 and never again!

Insane isn't it? I did it on an '84 lol. I want no part what so ever in doing it again. Easier to switch bodies I think lol.

you know i've done about 10 4x4 swaps, and i dont see how you guys feel it is hard? maybe you dont have the correct tools? or know know how? it takes about a full day to do a swap. hell my red monster took 2 1/2 days to go from a rolling empty frame( we are talking about empty too. just 2 axles on a frame nothing else.) to driving out of the shop. and that was with 2 people.

i could get into more detail with the swap if needed.

The added MPG gained by the inability to apply brakes, does have a major drawback!

Sounds like you've passed your first Darwinian challenge & you're well on your way to reaching "17"!
