But, then you'd have this too heavy Japanese running gear, and it
would sink just like all the other land crushers.

Bill, do you really think the running gear in a toyota pickup and a 4
cyl toyota engine is heavier than those in the M38? I guess you guys
are purists here. I was young like that once myself :o). I guess you
don't like engine swaps either?? The very best off road vehicle I ever
had (yes, better than all the jeeps) was a short landcruiser with a 350
Chev. and a Muncie 4 speed. I pulled a lot of pickups & jeeps out of
the FL swamps with it over the years. That, from a long time jeep
lover :o).
