stronghammer's driveway king, now on 35s and 4.88s now sold..

Been doing well. Have an entire afternoon of power washing the porch and drive when I get home. Fun lol.

Yeah I'm going the opposite way sort of. Doing Minor cosmetics on the truck, saving a nickel every now and then for the real stuff!!!

Have a great day bud

 

I hear you, I want my custom bumpers so badly but I have to wait on the suspension to support it. I keep doing little things because I have no self control.

You have a great day too!

 

We gotta do more to our trucks so that our threads aren't just saying hey to each other over and over haha!!

 

Everytime I get some cash stowed away I have to dump it into the house.

Keeping my fingers crossed that I won't need anyore repairs for atleast a year. I need to get lifted!!!

 

What's your lift plan?

 

Super mega budget at the time. But it will be so that I can add on things like nice KINGS and a full replacement leaf pack down the line....

Maxtac 4" spindles
And 2 inch blocks I got from a member for frizzle...

Also need extended brake lines front and rear and longer u bolts.

I want a flip kit for the u bolts so I can upgrade bumps, but like I said...Super duper low to no budget for the time being

 

That's kinda how I've been going/started. Low budget spacer lift to begin, now have the leaf pack. Gotta install brake lines and ubolt flip kit. Patiently waiting to see if we get a Kings GB. May I ask you what the spindles do for you? Haven't thought about needing/getting those..

 

Its a 2 wheel drive thing....and I think you are 4X4 - basically just lifts the front end 4 inches while keeping the geometry of the front suspension in spec.

You can get spindle gussets for your stockers, though they wont provide lift, they will be sturdy af

 

Ah, that's why I've never heard/thought about it hahaha. I'm still learning as I go here..

 

Same here man, everytime I think I know what i want to do....I read this or that about it and THE WORLD CHANGES BEFORE MY EYES!!!

Never had a lifted truck (or any truck for that matter) so this is all new to me lol

 

The trucks I had were lifted before I got them (89 Toyota Pickup and 85 4Runner). So I never learned to do it myself. I'm wanting to do it all right though.

 

Sweet truck. North Alabama FTW!

 

Thanks man I appreciate that! I see you're in Gadsden, I was just there for the Barbarian Challenge! You should keep an eye on our Alabama thread and come to a meet or ride day when we plan another one.

 

Hey, love all the mods on your truck! Do you know if the welder has a flat top option on the sliders? And, were they bolt on or did you have ro drill/weld? He's the closest welder I've seen who does these and would be interested. If you don't mind, how much were they?

 

Hey, thank you so much! Do you mean flat top option as in just using square tubing or do you mean round with a flat top? The ones he made for me were weld on, but he could do a bolt on option for you I'm sure. He told me anyone who asks he can do some sliders for approximately ~$400. Give or take depending on options and size and whatnot. He does great work and will be doing my bumpers once I get my King's suspension. Feel free to call or text him 256-738-7886.

 

GETTING A CAMPER SHELL IN THE MORNING!!! WOOHOOOOOOOO!

 

Got my ARE Camper Shell today and mounted it and also got my Hi-Lift mounted with @Shmellmopwho's mounts and also slider adapter.

 

Did a little wheeling with a buddy from Birmingham @TheTacoma but didn't really get any in action shots. There were a few good mud holes and small hills that made for a good short wheeling trip today. Pretty cool graffiti walls for some scenery too, and a great view overlooking Birmingham.
