Damn those 255s are tall. Truck looks great, but You already know that.

tigerfan00 · 09-12-2008, 06:54 PM

thanks guys...ive discovered tonite that the front tires do rub just a tad on the fender liner corners at the back of the fenderwells...its nothing major and nothing a good knife cant take care of

First things first, that is an awesome truck. Second, I'd like to ask for your impression of the ARB bumper. I've been going back and forth on whether to spend the chunk of change to get one--I don't where you found one for so cheap, but I can't find one for less than $750 before tax--or build a tube-bumper myself in the interest of an improved approach angle. Have you ever found yourself dragging that Aussie unit?

Tight.

tigerfan00 · 09-23-2008, 05:57 PM

So coincidently i was on the phone with my fab guy today asking about some stickers (because i love stickers) and he's already got a plan for my truck and wants it in his shop the day it gets paid off

Tons, H1 beadlocks, 40s, 4linked, dovetailed, full cage, stak transfer case

he's going to rape my credit card and i dont mind at all

05TacoTRD · 09-23-2008, 07:24 PM

So, how long till you pay that sucker off? Hahaha. I love your truck man. It's kinda funny to see it stock in your first post lol

thanks man...me and the old man were talking about it the other day and how when i bought it i swore i was going to baby it and keep it looking nice and not do anything to it etc etc...and look how much its changed in 3 years

i think i have about a year and a half left on the payments unless i can start paying a little more on it

thats a mighty fine truck tiger, but i have to admit, like the look of hte black wheels better. just my opinion i guess. still looks great though!

Shadow-Warrior · 09-24-2008, 08:23 AM

Great Build, I love the custom sliders. Bud skids are the best and he's a hellov great guy too.

thanks guys...i like my sliders a whole bunch too...i wasnt really a fan of the typical assembly line sliders i was seeing...plus no one offered xcab protection without charging me an arm and a leg

these are designed and built by me and unbreakable fab in lenoir nc...he's already planning my trucks progress 2 years down the road

the welds look ugly but they hold up just fine...building them was a great learning process for me too!

tigerfan00 · 09-24-2008, 06:33 PM

I've found that when I dont have money to actually DO stuff to my truck...i plan stuff to do for when I have the spare cash to drop on parts etc

Aside from my fab guy's plans for cutting the truck up...i also plan to eventually run a dual battery setup and a winch...

I happened to be on the phone with my dad today discussing him fixing my old broke ass laptop and got to thinking that itd be pretty cool to put that in there with some sort of wireless internet card and a whole buncha maps and a gps antenna...mount it up front with a ram mount...i have a little garmin gps...but sometimes that just dont cut it for me and it has no idea where im at and gets confused if i leave the road...having downloaded sat images + gps antenna would be incredibly helpful in the event i get lost in the woods

i also happen to own a handy little device known as a trackstick. It mounts to a vehicle via a magnet and turns on with vibration and tracks your gps coordinates as you move and then you can download them to Google Earth and track where you've been

i could combo the 2 and find my way back out of the woods...best part is the majority of the expense is already in my possession (laptop and trackstick) plus i already have a ac power converter so I can run the laptop using my truck's battery (where a dual would be handy when im not winching) Id really only need to purchase the gps antenna/software and a ram mount. the wireless internet of course would be optional provided im able to download sat images of the area i'll be before actually setting out onto a trail
