Well just bored so I thought I'd post up some pics of my truck in its different stages. I bought it nearly stock with just a 3" BL and 31" toyo a/t. Since then I've taken parts off and added some on. Nothing major yet. I've had 29" swampers on to play around. Then had 33" mudders on at the end.
It sits now in front of the house because the oil pump went out and I slung a rod in it. Plans are this summer to drop in a "302" but I have been contemplating throwing in a 351w now. But behind that will be a world class T-5 followed by an explorer 8.8" with 4.56s and a spool.
After that I plan to fab up some new bumpers and a tire mount. Haven't decided on the suspension yet. Plans were to build it into a long travel prerunner but me and friend of mine are contemplating going in together and building one from a TIB front. So if that works out then just a Fabtech 5.5" lift and 35s will be going on.
The day I bought him..
With some 29" swampers..
Found some trail while camping that went 12 miles up the mountain and lead to this...
Yep, welding some spider gears..
Threw on some 33s..
I actually wasn't stuck for a 2wd believe it or not..
Some of the group..
I never thought I'd see the day...
That might be a problem..
Here's some videos I thought everyone might like to watch...
