Managed to steal my girlfriends phone to take pictures, then send them to my email, then download them and upload them Anyone have a old camera they dont want?
Anyways so Ive built my bumper, got some 33x12.5 Swampers from YoungGuy and some wheels for cheap, installed a drop draglink today, got a couple dents, blew my first tire off the bead to!
Dont mind the blue wheels, they will be black tomorrow! I still need to make my shock hoops to ut my longer shocks on, to let the front droop like cray cray.

Dude! this truck looks alot, almost identical to my first highs chool truck. only difference is i had an 86 IFS(boooo). Sweet deal. for $500 i think you got one hell of a deal. even for the body as good as shape as it was in you got a smokin deal. i see some people pay that just for the body lol.

 

Double post

 

Yeah I wish i wouldve kept it in that shape. It was an old ladys truck, and it had been stolen like 3 times and returned everytime. Its crazy. Everything was perfect. Maybe I should have sold it for some good money. But now, Im a high school teenager. Its getting beat up!

 

Well rebuilt my hubs, got new rotors, calipers, brake pads, and seals! And my buddy gave me some brand new brake shoes for the rear. I should be stopping on a dime! And I painted the blue wheels red. Just for fun

 

Nice!

 

Hmmm, cant decide if I wanna flatbed, or bob my bed. I want a flat bed so I dont have to worry about beating it up and for roll protection, but I want a bed because I still use mine. Anyways, I should get the 1.75'' die from my buddy soon, then I will finish my rock sliders.

 

I find the use of an actual truck bed much more useful vs a flat bed. But like I said on my thread I really don't like the look of flatbeds too much either.

 

Yeah I dont like the look of much. But some can look nice. I think I'll just bob my bed!

 

Bobbed beds don't look to bad. They still look normal. Lol

 

About to change my rear brake shoes. Wish me luck

 

Oh god I've still never done shoes on any vehicle before. Lol very intimidated by all the components they take lol. Good luck

 

Finished them yesterday! The first side was a pain in the arse! Lots of cussing, walking over to the other wheel to look where the springs go, and more cussing. The 2nd side wasnt bad at all.
Anyways my e brake works now!
Got rid of the 6.5'' shackles in the front. They were just to long. I just added some leafs up front to account for going back to stock shackles.

 

awesome. I usually take before pictures so i can reference to later when i am not entirely sure where things go back.

 

I usually do that to! Forgot this time. Anyways Im making 5 inch shackles out of the braced 6.5 inch ones I had. Because with the stock shackle, it his the frame. I wish i had longer shackle bolts, so I can make widebody ones with spacers on the bottom.

 

Finished my sliders. Just basically added another tube to the outside and angled it up. Young Guy helped! My dad got a tranny and transfer case for free awhile ago, so I should keep the transfer case for dual cases in the future

 

Found an Inclinometer out of a Izuzu Trooper last week at PicknPull. I stashed it somewhere so nobody would take it. Picknpull wants so much for it! Itd be handy because it has voltage and oil pressure, which I dont have in my stock cluster.

 

No pix? Aww hell you tease! Jk

 

Extended my factory front shock mounts today. Dont think it will be strong enough but its worth a try. Now I have some 11 inch travel shocks in the front. I will get a ton of pictures posted tomorrow night since Im going wheeling tomorrow!!

 

Sweet dude. Good work csnt wait to see some flex shots.
