Wheelin&dealin's 93 x-cab build up thread


Day i got it, super clean no rust

Started with my audio first off (im 16)

Got a new kenwood head unit first followed by 2 front 4'' kens and 2 6.5'' rear ken speakers
Followed by that i bought me a L5 10'' solo baric and made the custom seat box along with the custom cubby speaker holders

Bed linered all of it


I like it alot, it sounds really good
somtime between there i got my flowmaster super 44 installed, dual out


Then the body work started........

Ran threw the woods a little...tree got both sides of my bed



After alot of beatin and bondo it was ready for some fresh paint


got them smooth and primered


new paint, custom dodge color with copper pearl. Also installed bj spacers for my new tires


front view


set of used 285/75/16 nitto terra's on rock crawler steel wheels, all for 225...wheels are worth that, still gonna get better tires when i get some more money


got them on still have to put my longer shackles on for the rear, they fit fine without them. Wanted to go ahead and put them on for school ha

Then im gonna tighten the t bar a little to level out my a arms a little, then get aligned

Yeah it may just look higher since my tires fill my fender wells, so ur tires might just make it look like it sets up higher
