Winch - $300

You know he started out as a prerunner...

Guess that means you've got a lot of work in front of you

 

I don't even want to know..

 

And that's doing the work yourself.......with labor added in ohhh my!

Thanks Doug! Now that I have a house.....I'm mean a garage the rear mt set up will be ditched hopefully in less then a year.

rolled his truck

gently down the road

 

Hey BlackDog. I didn't know you went through a cab replacement. When I bought my truck, it had been rolled over onto the roof. It's driveable, but the doors don't close right, and the windshield is perma broken do to the fact the frame around it is bent.

I've been working on finding a new cab for it, but the biggest problem I've run into is finding a cab that has a title. Scrap yards don't commonly have street legal titles for their trucks. How did you get around this? Did you just get lucky and find someone parting one out?

 

I think the 98-00 front ends are hideous.

I can live with mine for a little while now that it's all painted and dyed but I want to eventually go to a 95-97 because I think they're the most badass looking.

It's a purely aesthetic thing for me.

 

Less than I spend on 1 semester of college. I better drop out and mod the truck.

I'm assuming you made your own sliders for $130?

 

Then if some douche canoe hits your truck and you take it to the body shop, they will switch the front end back to 98.

 

I'm so sorry but I can't. I'd be lying to myself, lying to you... and the whole TW community that I've come to love and trust.

I.... I.... I'm so sorry


I do really like what you did to yours with the satoshi (or whatever it's called).
