The Frankenstein Build! LT/Expo/Trail rig..and BS

Yep what he said

33x12.5R15 BFG KM2s on a 15x8 Wheelers Type B rim.

 

Surprised those even made it on your truck....cough cough sliders cough rack.....

 

shaatup!

lol

stay tuned as well..

 

Started my sliders tonight!

Didn't get started to 9 so only worked for a few hours. Got the sliders all taced up tho and will be on tomorrow for sure tho!

Bed rack will start tomorrow as well

here are some pics! Also took some pic of my exhaust as i have had some ppl ask how my piping was routed. Figured it was a good time since it was on the bad ass car lift in the shop i get to use










Had to mod the front plates as they conflicted with the cross member for the tranny..not sure if this is a usual thing..

 

I think you need new shoes

 

had em for years lol mowed a crap ton of lawns in them. Yea they are falling apart haha perfect shop shoes tho.

 

Whose garage is that?

That's masturbation-worthy right there

 

X2 that garage is awesome! I wish I had a place like that to work on my truck. The garage I work in is very cramped and my truck is too long to close the doors

Have you ever thought about chopping your exhaust?

 

The garage I work in is incredibly spacious.

It's called my driveway

 

Thanks guys! Its mt very good friends place. Its huge. He is a car nut so he has a huge shop haha along with Damn near every tool. That's only the back half..

And I did have the exhaust chopped till I got a new muffler. I really like it as is but I think it will conflict with the new rear bumper so it'll prolly get chopped again

 

If that smile doesn't mean the rack is done I'm going to slap you.

 

i think it means he finally came out of the closet

 

No not done but started. Sliders are done tho

 

Alright, sliders are painted and on!

and how we left it sitting tonight.







I think its gonna be awesome when its done! SUPER stoked!!

 

yep HW time for me..

 

sorry man!

and thanks

 

I really like what you have done to your truck, do you think those LightForces provide plenty of light for offroad use? are they HID converted? I noticed you put that you would like to put the hellas on the roof rack--are these going to be angled out?

Sorry for all the questions, and can't wait to see the roof rack! good luck with school too

 

the LF240s are AMAZING lights! However they a more of a spot light and do a damn good job at it! VERY long range. And they are just Halogens. I thought about HIDing them..but i like how they just turn on instantly when i need them and are super bright as it is. Plus it would be a bit tricky to put HIDs in them. The Hellas i have are much more of a flood light so they will help fill the gaps a bit and yes, they will be angled outward to cast a wide spread. They are HIDed and are also, very very bright.

And thanks for the questions! happy to answer anything ya want.

i am STOKED for the roof rack Go the bed rack basically done today and will start on the roof part in the next couple days.

Pics are coming
