This is no joke:

I really love the fact that your plate is held on by zip-ties.

 

Haha, yeah the last thing I need is the police giving me grief about not having my front plate mounted. It'll be properly mounted once I get the fairlead installed with the winch and I can see my area to work with. But until then...... Zipties!!!!

 

I haven't had a front plate on my truck in years, don't know what happened to it, just disappeared.

 

Hey,

I'm pretty late to the party, but those Sliders look great. I've been contemplating doing my own sliders for more then a year now. I was thinking about Rectangular or Square Tubing as well, and I was wondering how it functions as a step for getting in and out? Some people claim the sliders just get in the way more then anything. Would you say yours are more beneficial or a hindrance in that sense? Also, have you tried jacking up on to 2 wheels with your Hi Lift?

Keep up the good work.

Wow, I'm late to my own thread.......... Sorry, I havent been on much lately.
The sliders definately get in the way for short/fat chicks, but my buddies and I can get in and out no problem. You can build them closer to the frame as well, but thats not what I was going for. I stand on them to wash the top of the truck all day. Not tried jacking it yet from the sliders, but I don't forsee that being a problem.

 

Also, If the weather is nice this weekend, new upgrades and photos to follow.

 

so you know i did read threw the other pages but it never said where you got the new seat covers to replace the WO's

 

and where the hell are these ^

 

Shit dude, I'm sorry. I forgot to post them after I took them a few weekends ago. I'll post them when I'm on my computer at home.

 

Ok, so these photos are a long time coming, but here goes.

After I installed the All-Pro Bumper, I modified the existing skidplate to fit because I think some protection is better than none.


Then, I added some security nuts to the Lightforce lights and re-installed the nuts.


Time to upgrade the entire suspension with Old Man Emu 886 coils and shocks front and rear to accomodate the added weight. Trim packer also to Taco lean.



And finally, the winch. Its a WARN M8000, and I mounted the control box up high and close to the cab for remote access.



Final product of how my truck currently sits. Couldn't be happier.

 

Nice job, where you been hovering, haven't seen you around in a while

 

I've been busy. REAL BUSY. So I'm gonna need someone to email me when there's gonna be another meet. Sorry I'm outta the loop guys. Can we still be friends?

 

nice looking taco how do you like your clazzio seat covers?

 

Are those Light force 170s??

Nice truck man!

 

Truck looks sick!

What tires do you have?

 

240's Sorry for such a delayed response

 

Sweet build ghost, what model brush guard did you have? I like how that ones' push bars curve inward compared to the Westin models
