Solid video for people interested. I think the biggest thing people need to know, which you addressed, is that parts are getting harder to find, and that you need to be mechanically inclined to save yourself some cost. I ended up outsourcing most of my maintenance as time is more important to me then money, so I've spent quite a bit rebuilding and repairing everything that was needed.
Time is way more important to me than money. I’m the same way. If it’s something I can fix on my own in a reasonable amount of time. Then I’ll do it. But if it’s going to take more time. I’ll take it the shop I trust
Thanks for the tips! Looking at a 95. I know it doesn't have the center, f and r lockers. Only has 169k on the odometer, and the guy only wants 8500 for it. Looks clean. We'll see.
Own two for almost 20 years. For parts, I use whatever I can find. OEM sometime are way too expensive with a small warranty or no warranty at all. Example; alternators. I use Autozone and since they have lifetime warranty, I do not worry at all.
Great real world 80-series advice!
Thanks bro

Well it will have the center locker. But no button. Once you shift to 4lo it will automatically lock the center.
@@CruisinMiles good to know. Thanks!

@@jvazquez53 I use autozone alternators as well. First one lasted me 7 years and I was fine with it.
Parts hoarding? I thought I was a prepper? LOL
