If possible I would get something original and used. I personally don't like the idea of running off my steering pump. How likely is it to find an old pto on ebay or the junk yards? Would it be the Chelsea 442 or something else? I feel a pto is built for accessories and is more versatile...

Looking for information and leads on a PTO for the NP203. I want to get an older hydraulic winch. To me the hydraulic would be better than drive shaft and more versatile. Thanks.

I was going to get Bilsteins. Then I heard I void going off road. Do not need anything fancy. Mono or twin tube?

The Dodge, 78 W200, is what I drive. I doubt it has a sway bar. I should air down more often. I am pretty loaded right now, though I plan on getting new shocks. Do the springs get soft with age? I think coils do, I'd imagine the same principle applies to leafs. I'll look into spring bushings...

Does anyone else experience lots of side to side rocking when loaded and driving down trails? I am pretty sure my shocks are original. When I hit a bump with just one tire or say both fronts, there isn't much bouncing. The rocking is enough to make me stop and crawl, almost at idle, through the...

My truck is a buck board wagon empty. I bought a dodge. Not a chevy. :smile: :laughing:

Not sure how you would wreck a shock on a truck with all leaf springs.

My icon is my rig. A two tone Green Dodge 78 W200. It would great if we could have a few Gambler rigs join a trail run. :smile:

Won't be till January most likely. Give us time to prep the rigs. ;)

Okay, yeah. I've seen that. Too far for me. I'm thinking about organizing trail runs out here on the other side of Moapa Valley.

Will there be a rally point made? Not sure where this is.

That makes no sense. They run Bilsteins on Baja 1000 race trucks. Might have been a different model.

I am wanting to heavy duty Bilsteins for my 78 Dodge W200. I know they are cheaper and not high performance like Fox or King. I want something heavy-duty and dependable. My shocks do not get much use. I am still running oem and they haven't started leaking. It is preference. Just like the...

Is there a forum or something for the Mesquite NV to St. George UT region? Once I get the truck fixed, I want to explore the hills.

Either. Both locations are flat. If someone had experience with the dome one then they could explain the benefits. I think the dome one would be stronger. It also depends on looks. On a trunk deck flat w/ spring would look best while the dome would be best on the roof of the trailer.
