here she is as she sits today, minus a few(hundred) trail pinstripe additions This picture is up Hoosier Pass

These pictures are on a trail off Boreas Pass

 

few more pictures from up around Hoosier Pass and Boreas pass

 

Nice truck and some sweet plans for her! Love seeing these builds from people in CO.

 

yea, and its damn time for a lift ha, some of these old mining trails have some rather large rocks that get hung up with factory suspension ha.
Install is going on this friday, giving it until sunday to settle a bit and then booking it to the closest firestone for an alignment.

 

Sweet man, what tires and wheels are you going with? keep an eye on the upcoming Colorado events thread.

 

just going to run factory rims/tires for a bit, then may go the 255/75?? route or 285/75 route. i want to re gear when i do the tires so i need a nice chunk of change for all that

 

Quick question... rear bump stops, the AllPro u bolt flip kit i got did not have the pre drilled holes in the top plates so i am going to need to weld the factory ones on... for those that welded bump stops on, how big of a weld is needed to keep these secure?

 

I now have all my suspension parts in hand and ready to install this friday
OME suspension, 886 coils, dakars, BR UCAs, All pro flip kit, all pro stainless steel lines front and rear.

will be investing in BR UCA mount gusset towers and BR Air bump mounts towards the end of the year. as well as making a bumper and installing a winch in december if everything works out how it should.

 

more pictures from this morning...

 

got hung up on the gas tank the first try... 2nd try made it up then started sliding towards the trees

 

Lift installed, when we started it was 33 degrees out side, when we finished, it was a nice 65 degrees with clear/sunny skies.

no vibes and rides great (886 coils with no armor is not as bad as everyone makes it out to be... bunch of sissies haha)

pictures will be put up shortly.
edit.. pictures will be up when photobucket starts working again

 

Hell yeah!

 

Lift Install
