This is the time line for my truck:

Bought it in 2002, 4" superlift, 2" body lift, 488's, Jasper engines 3zv V6 w/ downey headers, K/N cold air, magnaflow exhaust, 35" toyo MT's (13.5 wide). About a month after the engine swap it got stollen.

Gone for a year and it was painted primer gray, the rest is what has happened since then. New motor warrantied by Jasper since the old one blew about a week after I had it back, new front axles, rear leafs upgraded from 4" blocks to 4" lifted springs. New rattle can olive drab paint, roll bar was donated by theives. Gears were trashed, upgraded to 529's, 488's were to sluggish. New warn hubs (old ones were locked up .

It has been a long journey, now all I need is to replace the stock torsion bars (worn out), possibly bj spacers, locker in the rear (lockright) and maybe the front. Also going to put in cromoly axles when I do the locker.

This was my chance to show those *&^%*^%'s who stole my truck that they couldn't hold me down by trashin' my truck!!!

Before theft, after initial mods

 

Sorry, I haven't yet figured out how to put my pictures on the thread properly, I'll update as soon as I figure it out.
