NC15TRD's Build

Shocks, LR ball joints, Dakars, Wheeler's superbumps, and Dakar bushing kit arrived today! Extended brake lines tomorrow and gonna grab u-bolts at the local truck stop tomorrow. Come spring I'll start thinking shackle flip and U-bolt flip

 

This is where you and i are complete opposites. I need more bed space as it is lol

 

Mods on mods on mods

 

Good stuff Nick!

 

Haha I haul a fair amount of stuff but as I said, not enough to need the 6' bed

Piling them up! Can't wait for tonight and tomorrow to do all the installs!

 

I like where this build is going... Sub'd

 

Keep it coming!

 

Me too!

That's the plan!

 

what rear shocks did you go with? b110's?

how do you haul the quad? trailer?

 

Yep b110s. I use my dad's 18' tilt deck trailer to haul quads. Check my gallery. I know there's some in there or my Facebook. Gonna invest in a smaller trailer come spring. Maybe 6x12

 

thats a huge trailer for a quad! do you at least haul your friends quads too?

I have a 6x12 enclosed trailer i got for around $3500 brand new. it will fit 2 quads or a quad and a couple bikes. I don't get to use it though because my dad uses it for storing tool boxes that haven't sold yet. the plus side to that is I don't have to park it at my house.

and the original reason i asked is because you were discussing short/long bed.

If I didn't need to haul my dirt bike in my bed with the tailgate closed, and if I didn't like to bring a lot of stuff with me camping. i'd rather have the shorter wheel base.

 

My Grizzly would just barely fit between the wheel wells. The face of the wheels rubbed them. If I'm towing the trailer I usually have 2 more on it as well. Thr the trailer weighs 3k empty! Thinking aluminum for mine just to keep weight down and no rust

 

Went from an all steel with wood floor tractor supply 5x10 trailer to a Polaris (i hate that it actually polaris but don't worry i took the stickers off and burned them) aluminum with wood floor 5x10 trailer. The aluminum is 100000000000000000x worth it. I swear it feels like it weighs half as much as the steel one. At crusing highway speed its like I can't even feel it behind my truck (when its empty).

 

Sweet!

 

Looks mean and clean!

 

Nice!!!

 

Thanks guys! Did a little flexing today to help get things moving. Didn't push too hard because my bump stops need spaced a bit, but my God does it ride nice!

 

Lol you need my mud flaps, those rears look like they barely cover half of those 295s
