PNGO121 OFFROAD BUILD

Yeah the Method caps are terrible looking, they stick out way too far. My caps are from FN wheels with vinyl lettering I had a friend make for me.

 

Sweet. I was measuring mine the other day when I had one off to get some deer hair out of the bead (yup... lol), and I was wondering if I could find another cap that would work instead of a boring generic one. I'll check out the FN caps. Thanks man!

 

Rats! Did you return the brakes or did you go with a different sent of wheels?

-B

 

Yup np. Post on the wheels and tires page that your looking for some. A lot of those guys with the wheels run them without caps. I think I bought mine for $30 shipped off a guy.

 

I'm looking into other wheels right now but if you like the wheels you can just run some spacers.

 

Nice man, quick question. Im working on trimming in the rear of the front fenderwheel and trying to figure out the best way to go about it. I noticed you cut some of the plastic in the fenderwell. What about the metal below the pinch weld that was under the plastic? I couldnt tell from pics

 

If I have time I'll get you a pic but I removed the wheels, took a 10lb sledge hammer and pounded it in so it sits flat now. Some people cut the pinch weld but end up getting leaks so I wouldn't recommend it. Be ready for a work out though, shit wasn't easy.

 

Ok mahalo man. What about the metal that is perpendicular to the pinch weld below it. Its where the black fender attaches to at the bottom

 

Chop that shit. Cut the entire corner including bottom bolt. It won't affect anything.

 

Right on. Don't know why I gotta see what other ppl chop before I chop mine haha I hate this new truck shit I always baby it

 

its a natural feeling. no one likes cutting up a brand new truck. but as we all know, mods typically come with problems and headaches.

 

@pngo121 any negatives of exhaust chop ? smell in cab etc ? I'm not a fan of factory exhaust outlet

 

Never had any issues. Plenty of guys do it. I've done it on all my trucks. Looks a lot cleaner out back.

 

Finally got a chance to work on my truck a bit. Added some goods.
StopTech BBK Kit w/Spidertrax 1.25" spacers



Total Chaos bed stiffeners

 

I had Wilwoods on my car most people don't realize the stopping power of a good brake kit .

 

Definitely a nice upgrade.

 

Also added this.
Hypertech Speedo Calibrator

 

How'd it turn out?

 

Install was quite simple. Will do a test run on my way to work shortly. Will test speed against my GPS to see how accurate it is.

 

Sounds good!
