Tacokid09's Build

Well shit, news to me. You're the man!

Wish they made the double standard in a 17 with 4.50 backspace.

 

no problem man.

 

Have you seen what a guy on TTORA did to the rear bedsides, used some ABS to make an extension/flare to cover the tire, didn't look too bad. Don't think there is 6" Flare bedsides.

I see...could probably get 16-18 out of the front with an engine cage & no fender wells so 20-24 would balance nicely in the rear.

Might need more power then

 

its not that im worried about covering the tires its just when it gets to full compression, i dont want it to slam up into the bedsides.

but yes your exactly right as far as up front numbers with 10's and an engine cage.

might need an even higher regear.. possibly 6.0s after all the link BS and what not.

 

Oh, just simple cutting an you shouldn't have to worry about it. It's fiberglass so it'd look clean if you take your time doing it.

5:13 or something would probably be sufficient...or just get the URD S/C kit

 

or keep the 4.88s and just do a 4.0 xrunner swap i wish




but who knows, might start thinking about getting headers to help with the low end side of things.

 

Now we're talking...give that TC Reg Cab a run for it's money ...Wouldn't be overally difficult

Yeah, you could do some little things to gain some low end and overall power (15-20hp maybe)...Your a 5Spd though correct?

 

i sure will. just give me time


but yes, im a 5speed. you thinking that the trans wont bolt up ? i heard just specifically the xrunner motors will drop in with the 5speed. thats something i need to look further into but not right now

 

All in due time...I've got a million plans for my truck, just hard with downtime etc during school, and finding the time to the work itself.


Best guy to contact about that would be Torspd, I think they do bolt up but I'm not a 100% on that.
