the list will be shorter if i tell you what you WON"T need:

chassis tub
battery box
rear bulkhead
rear arm mounts
rear hub carriers
trans
trans brace

that's about it. do yourself a favor and just buy one.

Don't know what your money situation is but they have been showing up lately on ebay in the $125 range...haven't been selling either. The owners all seem to think the buyers market for these are really high since they don't wanna do any lowering of price either :? .

I'm afraid I'd have to agree with scr8p on this one.

By the time you buy all the stuff that makes it different, you will have more in it than what you could buy one for.

I'm bored at work right now so here goes. You will need:
F/R A-arms
F/R shock towers
F/R body mounts
F/R shocks
F/R swaybars
F bumper
F chassis plate
F bulkhead
R hubs
R dogbones & axles
Shorter turnbuckles
Wheels & tires
Body

Of course, if you simply want the challenge of converting your truck to DS, then it's not impossible. Just won't be cheap. Parts are still out there, just gotta dig a little.
