Next up.

I got a flat bed from a coworker. It was for a s10 but whats a little time and mig wire. I figured this would get the bed off the truck(so you can stop telling me to take it off now) temporarily until I can build a nicer one.

Oh, and a shot of the custom body work by mini van.

wife built the light bar

Mud flaps are street use. They take less than a minute to remove.

 

[kb3gun]

Nice! Looks like it was made for it.

 

[Wayneraintree]

I like it! Sweet score for the right price : )

 

[Straydog]

Kinda unbeatable for $50. The tire carrier ended up a little high, but if I decided to run 40's, they'ed fit. Its also a little bent. Probably from the roll over. It was on the 4runner

 

[Mike at Rausch Creek]

looking good.

 

[Straydog]

did a little more today. I ran the axle breathers up. rear to the tire carrier. front to the top of the air cleaner. Made a diamond plate mount to hold the gas filler. Diamond plate cover for the rear lights. Ordered the bearing/setup kit for the rear axle from marlin. Hopefully will have enough for the front axle rebuild kit and spacer next week.
Got a detroit for the rear, but I'm going to leave the front unlocked until I can afford longs and a selectable.

 

[zucruisers]

looks decent for $50;p

did you get a full detroit for the rear? i think an open front diff isnt always a bad thing, makes things more fun...spend the $$ on a high steer kit and an ifs box, not having to worry about the steering is a big plus

 

[Straydog]

The steering is next on the list.

Its a lockrite. I thought that was full? Not a detroit though

 

[zucruisers]

here's your new bumper

its not perfect, but i hope you like it

 

[Straydog]

Oh baby. I've got some trees and a mini van to seek revenge on

Looks good, now lets get it on the proper truck.

 

[zucruisers]

i only bolted it onto jeff's truck to make it look better, a picture of a bumper laying on the floor doesnt look as good;p

 

[zucruisers]

did you get the bumper put on yet??

 

[Straydog]

Yeah. I'll get the pics up as soon as I get a chance.

 

[zucruisers]

Yeah. I'll get the pics up as soon as I get a chance.

waiting.....;p...go outside and get those pics!

 

[Straydog]

Its dark when I go to work, and dark when I get home. So I'll have to take the camera to work.

 

[Straydog]

I added 2 leafs to the front packs and tried to get pictures of the bumper, but it got too dark to fast, so I'll take the camera to work and try again.

did you redrill the perches to move the axle forward?

 

[Straydog]

No. Not yet. I need to address steering and driveshaft issuses before I do that.

 

[Straydog]

And without fauther ado......
THE BUMPER
