Trigo's V8 Long Travel Caged Prerunner

Andrew (Trac) is still around but is usually busy so getting him on the phone isn't the easiest, @jeffz0rz is only a few miles away from Trac and does good work. He's the one doing the rebuild on my truck.

 

I'm going to contact @jeffzorz. Were you happy with how things worked out when you put your truck on the frame rack or would you do things a different way?

 

Subbed. Should be killer when done.

You know...after you 4 link the rear too...

 

Couple of little updates

dash bar


Engine cage is starting to take shape


Shock mounts

 

That won't be for a while lol bypasses and differnt leafs definitely but I don't see myself NEEDING links for a while. Depends how the truck performs with the new front end really

As of now 3, hopeing to add a Miata to the mix once I can stop throwing money at the prerunner

I need your money tree apparently.

 

Moar pics of the prerunner







Dropped off the kit at powder coating yesterday

 

Work full time without many bills or expenses. Go to school part time at night, well I was I took the semester off and I plan on going back next semester but normally I don't have much free time to waste money so it all goes towards my toys lol

 

I know your pain bro. 12 hour shifts for the last month straight with 2 days off...the money tree is flowering, except I haz bills and a family and a house with a wife that wants furniture. And a locker and a full regear

 

I have a few friends that work 12's and none of them like it but they only work 3 and a half says a week and make more than I do lol once I finish college hopefully I can get into a decent paying career and I'm gonna be working as much as I can. Everyone tells me to enjoy being single and kid free for as long as I can so that's the plan lol I'm hoping to pick up some weekend work depending on my school schedule next month

 

Before and after of getting the wheels polished. First one came out clean

 

Hey there hope all is well with your truck. Question what fenders did you have on the truck before
you purchased the Mcneill 6"?

 

Wow... Had no clue this thread was here. Also had no idea how much has gone into this truck and the stuff its been through. Have yet to see it which is also sad but dam man. We need to take the 3rd gen and Steven and get some photo shoots going on haha. Any kinda ETA on when this will be complete?I say complete but I mean temporarily drivable
