The "under destruction builds" supersize75k5 's driveway of despair and repair

[4xcrazy]

I am kinda thinkin this too,,,,but actually what i was thinkin, is use the stock bumper, just as the "filler" build a tube pre-runner style, if you will, looking tube bumpers on the outside of the stocker.

From the looks of it, there is just too much of the underbody, spotwelded, glued areas to cover up, not like the older styles, where you take the bumper off, and there's nothing but frame rails.


put a stock bumper on it, build a tube setup around that.

bling time...i liked em so I picked a set up. just 17's its a work truck so no need to go crazy... kind of like them cause they look similar to am h2 rim. now I can take off these ugly weld rims and 33's

Even though they are super blingy, I like'em!

na...these are not too bling, I was actually considering buying my friends 24's off his hummer, he just up graded to 26's i wanted to do it just to see the looks I would get pulling into a job site to do work but they wouold get my truck stolen..ive already had two stolen...not trying to go for three!

Say...I was reading TRUCKIN today...Kelderman Air Ride has a sas conversion for those HDs now. Set up to run a 60 and all


You know you want to

just picked up a 6 inch rcd lift today, so no solid axel swap just yet, kit comes wth the bilstin shocks..also i might go order a set of bfg muds to but i want to choose a tire that will last a year at least

thye bfg all terrain is a great tire, but its so boring when compared to a mud terrain, seems my wrk truck is turning into cash hog..the girl friend was with me since I took the day of today and she could not believe I would not spend more than 60 bucks on shoes but an hour later dropped some serious cash on my truck lol

we went to a nice dinner..that should hush her up

 

[pauly383]

The new is gone , no more nice just drive it truck !!

Got the 6 inch rcd lift on, posted some pics of it prerunner style too lol. I also ended up just ordering another set of new 17's these ones will be in monday and ill have them mounted. I decided not to use the chrome ones do to needing a small wheel spacer, but I dont want the extra track width, and I dont want to give my ball joints more stress than needed.

ill post up the pics..
