Poor College Boy's 92 Truck

Hello, this is my thread for my truck. It is a black extracab 1992 pickup with lund camper shell. It is a 3.0 5 speed V6. I have installed a 3" performance acc. body lift. I have 15x10 Dick Cepek wheels wrapped around a set of 33x12.5 definity dakotas. I have northwest offroad high flow headers, cat, and muffler. I have also installed a K&N filtercharger system and a heavy duty clutch. I bought this truck from my dad a couple of years ago. He installed all the "motor" mods himself and I have have done all the lifts, tires, etc.

I would love to make this thing way bigger with a def SAS, but i am in college and making this truck any larger would be completely impractical. It is my daily driver. BUT when its all said and done and college is over and i have a real job lol this thing will be a beast.

I am planning on doing a few more minor things to my ride, like a heavy duty bumper and a roof rack. If anyone has any info on roof racks on a camper shell, please feel free to post. Any posts or comments are completely welcome! Enjoy!

I see a huge problem with it. Needs to be fixed immediately. It has a Georgia plate on the front.

hey guys, thanks for all the comments on my truck. to 88wildrunner i am a mild offroader, just enough to have fun without completely tearing up my stuff. it is my daily driver so i dont give it too much abuse lol. mostly hunting trails, ruts, and some mud. (but not the deep stuff lol) before this truck i had 91 on 33's that i ran off in a mudhole WAY deeper than i thought and it was up to the doors. but i made it out with no troubles.
pic of old rig...


to gte718p SICKEM DOGS!!!

I've always loved the look of the 15x10 rims with just a bit of lift...just a great stance to the vehicle. Makes me want to sandblast and paint my 15x10 steelies instead of selling em. Great lookin truck man

Nice truck, sometimes I wish mine was black, sometimes I'm glad it isn't,

What's with the front corner lights? did you just paint the reflectors with tint or something? It looks like you used the spray tint on the tails, but I can't tell up front?
