Talking one year anniversary

well it's been a year that i've had my runner. june 28 was the actual day, but close enought. i'm so happy to have this truck. it was then and still is my dream ride. and the mods are only beginning, i still have so much i want to do. anyway, just thought i'd share some "then" and "now" pics.

THEN:

haha yep, but you knew that dude. but hey, what can i say, it was a mighty fine idea and it looks gooooood.




and OicnaiC, yeah it probably is pretty hard on the truck, especially with stock front suspension. that's probably why i only did it once and don't plan on it again for a while...

Nice rig.

My rig turned 8 last month... as a bday present, I bought it a TJM T15 and will be taking it out for a trail run next weekend.

I've had mine for a year also . I think I got it at the very end of June last year. I've got to update my avitar pic because it looks nothing like that anymore. TJM T-15 changed everything.

Nice truck Calrockx. Black looks so good when it's clean.

I know what you mean by the whole obsession thing. I sometimes have nightmares that something bad is going to happen to my truck and then I wake up and realize it's just a bad dream.
I think I'm going to go stare at my truck for a while.

My dad bought my truck new in 1989 and he then sold it to me in february of 2001. I've had it for 2.5 years now. It's been through a lot. lift, tires, new engine (that was fun ), and all that good stuff. I'm planning on keeping that through college, then buying a nice car or truck and keep mine as a dedicated trail rig.
