Taco Terror's ‘96 Old Truck Build

Lovin' it. Go 1996's
Defiantly gonna sub this.

 

subb'd
great looking taco man! love me the early first gens!

 

Wow, you've got a good looking truck. How did you find one with such low mileage?

 

Thanks man! love that 96 you have.

thanks dude. as for the early trucks, I think they look the meanest. Sick looking 97 by the way.

 

Thanks, and as I said in the first post it was my Grandfathers since 1996. He didn't put a lot of miles on her, I got it at around 74,000. Only reason it had that many is because it got better mpg than his V8 Lincoln Town Car.

 

Well this thread needs to be updated, got it muddy but the rain washed most of that off:

 

Was going to plastidip the bumper but decided not to because it was too cold (I removed it for a a better reason):


When I was testing my early Christmas present:


I remove the bumper to install these:

 

Trucks looking nice!

 

Rigid's at night

Picture isn't that good, but the tree line hundreds of feet in the distance was lit up:

 

Changed the oil with the best oil filter:

 

I decided to get a different exhaust system. So instead of the flowmaster 50 dual exit, I got a Magnaflow 18" single exit. Sounds deeper yet is also quieter.

 

Got a new toolbox also!

 

OK, so I decided to go ahead and pull the trigger on some stuff, here's some teasers:

 

Now I am waiting for the rear AAL to come in so I can install everything

 

Noice! I have all my lift stuff, just need to install it with friends help if I can, but they're always busy! Hopefully this summer. But nice truck! I need to get some new wheels/tires soon

Oh yeah and I was born when the truck was made, so I have to sub

 

Haha thanks man, I got everything installed I just haven't updated this thread yet.

Nice truck btw, I love the lights on it.

 

Why am I not sub'd?! Nice truck and great tastes! Specs on the new tires?

 

Oh thanks man, the tires are 33x10.5 r15
If that is what you were wanting to know.

 

I have been lazy here lately so I haven't been doing much on the forum, here is the lift on the 31s I had though.


It made those tires look small haha

 

And while I would prefer wider tires, these were the widest I could go without new rims. They'll do just fine.
