+20 18x9.75 rear +33 18x8.75 front. 10.5s going to put it really close to the axle bracket. And I had to stretch my rear fender out to make it flush.

i never took the cat out but when i put the lce header in the truck seemed almost quieter but definitely a different tone than it did before. power really wasn't noticeable at all though. felt a lot more out of the intake

Hmmmm that's interesting.

sounds about right. i was thinking i had to go with atleast a +30 all around offset cause i don't want to roll my fenders but i want them flush. i guess i'm gonna wait till i lower it then go try some rims out. thanks for the info.

 

[Phil Dammit]

All have to remove the upper fender bracing in the rear. Bolts will eat up tires

 

[Phil Dammit]

New grille and lights, she's getting there

 

[Torspd]

Damn. Looking gooding Phil! Fuggin' low!

Lol thanks tor, need to get the bumper and then paint plus all dents removed. Thinking about defined engineering shackles in the rear for another 1/2" and will adjust the front for another 1/4 up front when the adjustables finally hit the market. Btw, the trans xmember is much lower

That's cool as hell are you gonna swap in a 1gr with the 6spd?

I can't make my mind up, so at the moment going to drive the 2tr till it finally grenades and then by that time I'll have my mind figured out. If I turbo or super now ill keep weight down, if I 1gr ill have potential for gobs of power but mo weighy. That's the dilemma

 

[Phil Dammit]

New bumper, cor support, and redid the wiring of my HID's. Probably going to order some morimoto H4's, and before it starts, no I will not retro fit.

So yesterday my new coworker decided to back into whitney and today I got LSD!

 

[Torspd]

One plus and one minus.

 

[Phil Dammit]

Yeah, taking her in Monday for full paint job.

 

[05xrunnerx]

Will you be going with a custom paint job or just new bsp?

 

[Phil Dammit]

BSP, but I'm getting the front bumper and rear bumper painted as well.

 

[Phil Dammit]

Dropped her off at the body shop

 

[Torspd]

Going to be looking like a new truck, is all I can say. :top:

 

[Phil Dammit]

Had to go grab a hood last night. Existing hood is too ****ed to repair from all the flopping around it did on my last cross country trip from the hood latch reinforcement breaking. 125 bucks on craigslist aint bad for a local one.

 

[Phil Dammit]

updates, preping for prime and paint.

 

[Torspd]

Oh damn dude. Didnt know you were doing the whole truck?!

Have some scratches and just want to get it done? Or what?

Scratches, dents, orange peel, clear coat peel, roof peel from the amonia. Just overall bad paint job by the previous owner when he rebuilt it after the crash.
