Medics’ Hold My Beer it’s a Prerunner Build

Welcome to my build page. Grab a beer and sit back.

2008 DCSB OR

Bought it back in 2010 with low miles, previous owner hardly drove it and it was garage kept (NOVA).
Didn’t really have any mod plans but recently I’ve switched gears to build a better rig. The kids are getting to the age where they want to go camping more so I needed a setup that would fit the bill.
As she sits today:



Suspension
Bilstein 5100 w/OME 885
Bilstein 5125
Wheelers 3 Leaf AAL Pack

Exterior
ARE Cap
ProComp 7089
AllPro knock off bumper

Interior
Quick Fist MagLight mount mod
LED overhead lights
ScanGauge

and more to come!

 

1st HA haha

 

Well that's a nice start to the build thread. NEED MORE PICS

 

First “mod” wasn’t really much, swapped out the old worn headlights, debadged and scored the cap shortly after that.

Headlights Before


Headlights After



Badge Be-Gone



Capped

 

Slowly adding them!

 

That means I owe you a beer, right?

 

Paint Matching

 

I will gladly accept that

 

Much nicer than the chrome one

 

If you ever want to get vested in a vehicle, have major engine work done to it.
I should probably add new intake manifold gaskets, head gaskets, two knock sensors and multiple engine flushes to the mods list.
While the truck was in the shop I scored the ProComp 7089’s. They threw them on for free.
I also got to drive a 2021 for over a week as a loaner.





Finally Mine Again

Took a day trip with the little wife out to Rapidan Wildlife Management Area

Nice little drive. We did the Lower Tract trail, which it turns out is a 4WD trail.
Honey, hold my beer while I throw this into 2WD.
Got a little bit of flexing in and only had to use my rear locker once.

Another day trip! This time we took the upper tract of the RWMA.
Way easier drive but with better views than the lower tract.

 

Nice pics we need to head up there sometime

 

@ChadsPride Super White prerunner

 

It was a gorgeous drive. There are a lot more camping spots on the Upper Tract.

 

What size tires? Are they a SL or E Load?

 

Oh I need to find that

 

265/70/16 I have to check in the morning if they’re E or not

 

Diff Breather Relocate
My oldest daughter did a lot of the work which was really cool.
