UPDATE! October 25th, 2019
Clifford has been doing great! I'm going on a drive tomorrow so we'll see how that goes. I just found out that 2wd Z71 trucks EXIST!! So, I'm going to upgrade my shocks and add a skid plate and turn my truck into a Z71. Now, I know back in the 90's, only 4WD trucks had Z71, so this is only temporary. Next Spring, HOPEFULLY, I'm planning on installing 4WD with the help of some friends.
My main concern right now is that winter is coming, and I don't think the truck has spent any time outside when it's cold for the past 24 years, so I'm wanting to find something to protect the rockers with. Any suggestions? I don't have a garage to park it in.
