Money wise it's cheaper than FI,but you have the tank's to deal with.If I didnt already have FI I'd be runnin propane.
i guess its just you and me on here steveno comments??changes ect??now is the time..speak up if u see something that needs to be changed
Needs more pink.
What are you going to use as a recovery point on the back?.....Gotta have something to tow you out with.
Looking good Steve.....How about some picts of the whole truck, so we can get a better perspective.
not sure about that yet..i was just thinking about that earlier...ill be able to figure it out better once i get it back in my possesion
Maybe a hook on each side of the frame rail? Hey Steve, how strong is that cross member at the very back?

I'll get some pics of the whole thing Mon,but it's kinda gay lookin with the little mismatched tires and all the tube.Both X members are 2X4 square tubin.It's plenty strong enuf for you to pull him out by.
He can probably weld some d rings on under the tube or on the bottom edge of the rear crossmember.

My propane gets a little less the my gas but its a stock motor and not built for it. I think propane is really closer to 110 octane rating. I would build a propane over a FI too less moving parts and less complicated. My only issue with propane is the location of the tanks no place in a burb or I would have it done.

Another place that sells propane kits is,
gotpropane .com
gotpropane .com
Thats really something to think about......it gets to be 100-125.oo dollars everytime we go out, i need atleast 105 octane for it to run perfect and thats with the timing turned down.. I think propane would pay for it self in a lil while...
they have good stuff but you can get kits ALOT cheaper...if u browse ebay and know what your buying you can get setup for 2 to 3 hundred buck
its a real good idea....i gota find a cheap kit....
this showed up today...bad ass cover

looking good. once you get the tires on you might have to get a running start to get in it with those boatsides
Keep the pics comin'!
since you're cutting pristeen sheet metal why not keep the whole rocker panel in tact and sell it to the less fortunate guys in the rust belt
