[Luke95]

This is how she started her life with me. Terrible rust and needing a tune up.

Junk of what was holding a rear bumper

I was able to pull it off with my hand.


jerk at work

Fixing my Door




I changed my lower control arms to Rusty's that came with the heep




bedlinered the sides



Cleaning up my rims

So my current plans are as follows
8.25 or a Ford 9 inch

I just bought a set of used rancho 9000s in great shape!
I pulled the trigger on a set of RE 3.5 Coils

Nice work! You're hitting the build head on, and are smart for doing things on a budget... You won't be disappointed in the build and putting in all the wrench time now will pay off big in the end.

[Luke95]

THANK YOU SIR I thought no one was even looking But I am going to cut the back up some more because this guy has no school! BTW that door dent is from my head.

Actually he's got that 8.8 with 3.55 gears that and those 33s would make this quite the stout little rig.

[Dirtyjeep92]

Nice those swapers have plenty of life left being a hard compound tire.

[Luke95]

I am hoping I get this job!
I want the 8.8 but my bank account is fading...

Brown Santa showed up

[Grandzjtsi]

What's below the ubolts? Blocks maybe? Any plans for your rear suspension? I'd recommend greaseable shackles and get the best spring pack you can fit into your budget!

[Luke95]

not blocks centering pins for the S10 packs I have coming!

[Luke95]

rear leafs are done
Front coils going in tomorrow

Oh and I bought a supercharger
Eaton m90

[Grandzjtsi]

Oh and I bought a supercharger
