Chopped almost 7 feet off the frame just so I could fit this thing in my barn.

First thing will be to drop the rear end out and shorten the wheelbase by 67 inches which is one section of drive shaft.

Don't want to have another shaft modified if I can help it.

Here's a man after my own heart.

My wife and I run into that. She's in Georgia and I'm in Kansas. We'll do identical searches on either Google or Yahoo and sometimes not match a single first page hit.
