Guy has some mad skills and I give him credit for all his work. But no way in hades I would ever invest that much money into a D2. I do like see others creativity also.

Well, I must be crazy then because I have at least that much cash invested in my D1 over the last 20 years.

Getting ready to go 2 inches higher/tires to 37"s and have decided to go electric instead of Warner 4.6 as the engine is over 400k now....

That will be another 6K to 8K but of course, this has been my daily driver for 20 years and it has been paid off since the day I bought it.

I consider it chump change to most of the people I know that do perpetual leases...

This guy is in a whole nother class than I ever dreamed about on modifications......the reason it's posted is that there are a lot of YouTube videos pertaining to smaller projects in the thread that I think other members would find helpful.

Yeah, Mike (tinker) is here in Michigan. Been on my short list to someday go wheeling with him. Great build.

I had only seen the interior pics when looking at camper setups. I had no clue so much other work was going into that Disco. Amazing!

The transfer case pin removal is part worth reading the whole thing for, but that is wild build
