I will need to use your brains when I am ready.
I know they are a full frame but what do you use to strengthen and stiffen up the chassis?

you can put a cage in it pretty cheap. 200 or less if you do the welding. get you some good caltrac bars for making it bite a good set split mono leaf springs will help you alot to.

here is an 8 point for 170 bucks.

with what i mentioned above carl you could put just about any small block you wanted in that thing and make it stick anywhere. im talking high horse motors too. on a 10 or 10.5 slick without tubbing it.

Excellent!!!!!!

What about the rear window?
Lexan or glass with the cage?

well it depends on if you go out threw the window are just above it in the cab. ive seen both. ive also seen them come out about mid ways up in the cab and threw the front of the bed. that way you dont have a water leak when it rains..

Through the cab and bed would make the most sense.

Better get my trooper sold and start saving my pennies.
