    Hey LuckyShooter, welcome to the forum.

    Wow, good looking truck for the price. The fuel tank might prove a challenge, as it's fuel injected. But enginuity never stopped a lucky shooter!

    Same color as mine, I love that Sahara Gold. I bet the forum would like to see pics of the interior, too. It looks like it has the original clock in the dash.

    Thats the only interior pic i have right now. Clock was missing actually! But everything else is in tact and working! Interior is pretty clean, minir crack in the dash but not bad for a 26 year old truck with 236k miles!

    Mine came with the same yucky brown interior. Still, there's a lot you can do to spiff it up...and I'm sure you will!

    Lemme tell ya, bucket seats in these trucks makes such a world of difference: hope you come across some.

    BTW, mine has 236,000 also, runs great and reliable.

    Here's some interior ideas you might consider: http://www.mightyram50.net/vbulletin...hp?albumid=339

    Duuuude, bucket seats FTW! Looks clean man! Yea im going to have to tone down that brown! I work at a body shop so access to paint is no problem. Actually i thought about buying a bench seat for my RZR amd using the buckets out of it for the 50. Just recover them or something. FB_IMG_1441686385036.jpg

    Surprised yours doesn't have the v6. Thought 90 was the first year.

    Yea that was an option i believe... sure would be nice. This 2.4 just barely gets out of its own way. She fusses on cold morrnings but ill run it till it gives up then maybe bore it out and maybe add some boost!

    The '90 Dodge factory service manual shows both engines were available on the 4x4.

    Can anyone see one of those memes and not read it in Morgan Freeman's voice?

    BTW, nice truck.
