82 K5-Texas4x4rebels. Thinking about parting out the K5

Went out trail riding this morning went down a 5 diamond and almost nosed it over didn't get any pics we never really stopped long enough. The other trails were two 4 diamonds and three 3 diamonds. Had to take one bypass on a 4 but hit all the other trails. Heres the only pic I have from today after I tryed to squeeze through a wash out up a hill. It smashed the rear quarter all in and riped the tail light off.

Doesn't look like your photo skills are much better than your welding.

Ouch I can weld ok when I put the mounts on I did a bad job cause I was rushing.
Wish I could of gotten some pics while we were out but I was the slow one most the day being the only truck in our group with no front locker maybe somebody will post some pics on the local board.
Don't know if you can see the smash any better in these pics.

Ow. Think I have a couple tail lights out in the shop still, I'll take a look tomorrow. I'd offer to ride along and be the photo guy, but don't have any free weekends in the foreseeable future.
 
I did the same damage recently. I ordered replacements from Classic Parts for 20 bucks. My buddy paid 14 + gas $ so I think I got a better deal.
 
Heres a couple pics from the rti ramp and a rollover video from a buggie it had a yamaha motorcycle engine and trans mounted in the rear then a shaft running up to the front with a gear and chain the went into the front of a 4 speed manual trans, from there it had a short drive shaft that went into a two speed transfer case.
That trail was the only one I didn't attempt.

Neat vid of the buggy flippin. I need to put your thread on my ignore list, the awesomeness of your truck is killing me. Been spending time surfing craigslist for a good 73-80 beater to build, spray paint green, and add a soft top to. Stupid internet is going to beak me.
 
Damn you broke a tail light lens. I smashed mine into so many things. Kept breaking the bucket, but never once broke the lens.:waytogo:
 
It is the next thing I'm getting once mine is running again, I'm glad to see how well yours has held up.
