New to YT heres my '90 22RE pickup

chrishf12 · 02-08-2007, 07:55 PM

This is my DD Ive been completing small mods every now and then when I scrape up the money! As of now...

Currently
32x11.5 Mudstars
15x10 Mickey Thompson Classic II wheels
Slight Torsion Bar adjustment for clearance (otherwise stock suspension)
Custom Twister Exhaust
K&N Intake
Pioneer 6700 CD deck
Pioneer 6x9s
Rockford Fosgate 10 inch subs
Bugflector II/ventshades

Hopefully Coming Soon
DOA c270 cam
Header
lockrite or some kind of locker for the rear
New Tires (21k miles on current set)

If anyone knows any easy/affordable installs help me out! I want to improve the off-road performance while keeping the highway performance the same. (college this fall and this will be my ride!)

Any Help is Appreciated

Perhaps a set of BJ spacers for more clearance and then relaxing the torsion bars. Should give you more droop while still being able to maintain clearance. An IFS Truss (Sonoran steel) ought to keep your front end aligned and in workng order for a while longer.

If you're blowing budget, go for a selectable rear locker. It'll get you places you never want to be in your truck.

I built a custom box to fit behind the seat. 2 subs on either end and 6x9s chambered in the middle. The only room i had left for the amp was under the passenger side seat. Ill try to get a few pics on here tomorrow.

Thanks! I want to try the Swaybar disconnets also but havent had time lately. Where could I find the spacers and about how much do they run?

Seat all the way back or did you have to sacrifice some leg room?

If 5' 10" is a midget then i guess i am! lol

Its worth the sacrifice for the sound quality! almost like having a dj set up behind the seat!

fthertime666 · 02-09-2007, 10:05 PM

Damn, I am 5' 10" and I cant see that box fitting in my 94. But I really like leg room...anyways, sweet truck, ditch the crank and throw some bj spacers on!
