ok so as a few of you know im pretty much going ballz to the wallz right now on the truck! haha i want this thing in good running and driving condition for the summer!
so far this year(and the end of last year) i have put a cab visor on it, cab lights, grill guard lights, reinstalled the sound system, bed toolbox, ive got a ford 8.8" axle im building for it right now. it is going to be getting 3.55 gears (same as before) but its a posi axle(trac lock for those of you who hate me using a GM term
) the axle has all new brakes(literally everything from springs, drums, backing plates, adjusters, shoes, axle seals, wheel cylinders and so on). ive got new brake lines on it as well and a new brake hose for it too. im painting the diff cover as well. the axle is also getting new carrier clutches for the posi and new carrier and pinion bearings and gears...(just waiting for chris to shp them!!!!
) ive got new cab replacement body panels which are going on in 2 weeks to get rid of the rot on the cab. ive already rebuilt the motor 2 years ago and have a cam for it which im going to be installing hopefully in the summer sometime. i also have a new drivers door which is going on when the body work is done.
and i just found a transmission for the truck too! $100! haha it will be a week until he can get it pulled from the vehicle. oh and the brakes in the front have all been done as well as lines and all 6 shocks. i am planning on getting lift springs for the front to level it off and possibly new stock rear springs as well this summer....omfg i love my truck WAY to much!
just to give you guys, girls, and pigs a view of what ive done visually since ive bought it
here is what the truck looked like when i bought it(a few months after but nothing changed)
oh those are the 33"/10.5"/15" BFG's that came with it. the yellow light is my light i put on top when i bought it.(i thought i made it look like a construction vehicle and i avoided the cops with it haha) the only thing i did to it was ad the rear light covers in this picture.
here it is now
with 33"/12.5"/15" BFG's
