    Billies on all four corners with daystar spacer lift. Bought it like this. Replacing done with toytec ultimate 3" lift
    So... taking the truck to the shop in the morning. It's still misfiring and I/we can't figure out why. Hopefully it's something small that we are overlooking and cant find. This dang thing is costing money!!! I am thinking of a 3.4 swap with a 5spd behind it!!!! What do y'all think????

    Yeah I did, I thought I messaged you back. Not sure if they will fit a first gen. Might have to look around on that.

    (Paul please post the FAAAAAAWWWWWWKKKKK pic of the troll guy for me as in quote and edit this for me..)

    There are times I wish I didn't invest so much money into my current truck.. I almost feel like the mods and money i've invested i might as well keep going and just finish it off.. But i could leave it the way it is and turn it in to a curb stomper / mall crawler and get something like that!

    Hmmmmmm...

    Hah, yeah... I'm kinda in the same boat. Wheeling your DD is cool until you think, "Man... I'd wheel so much harder if I didn't have to drive it to work on Monday." Then you get into stuff like that. I'd love to get rid of my DCSB and get something like that, then get a honda or something to drive every day. Trick is it'd need to be street legal, otherwise you're in for a tow rig as a DD.

    $233 and some change to rebuild the coilovers James. So I will have them next week im guessing. put them on. change my ball joints. replace the axle seal because its leaking again :( get alignment and save for tires.

    and thus, the dilemma of loving offroading. How awesome would it be to be so rich you don't mind having a ton of vehicles, but then at that point, why get the fuel efficient daily driver.

    My plan is to hop into something like a hyundai elantra, and find something in decent shape as a trail rig that can make it a few hours on the highway.

    Taa DAA!!! That's it! Now.. SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!

    We are kind of in the same boat my friend.. My guess is for me though I didn't get my seal all the way in..

    Thanks buddy!

    That sounds like a pretty good plan! What kind of decent off road rig are you looking to get in to!?
