Gee Earle, that sounds like a real bad deal. Whatever you do, don't buy it.
Now where was it located?

Yeah, I never heard of any part of any IH product referred to as "svelte" either. Hmm, maybe the fenders after it has been on the road a season. ;o)

Thomas Waldr> I was referring to Bill's description of the TJ frame.
Hell of a deal - buy that sucker.
Bill's just jealous that most of his flex comes from his frame instead of his suspension...
Yup, it's designed to flex, using rivets, and no welds to bolt together their frames:
It's a good thing too, since those leaf springs don't. It's like driving a forklift.
:-)
Commercial trucks have a 215" wheelbase and a trailer pressing down on their
70,000lb capacity rear axles and flex naturally .. Yours, with the 80" wheelbase and light weight, was rivetted together as that was the cheap and safe option.. Remember the Liberty ships with low grade WW2 steel and welds that were prone to cracking ? (btw I understand new trucks like Kenworths and Peterbilts use huck bolts now)Dave Milne, Scotland '99 TJ 4.0 Sahara
