At the shop. Getting some 285/70-17 all terrains. I can't remember the brand, I'll update soon though.

[dodge dude94]

That is the perfect stance!

 

[PCA4208]

Yea. It's sweet! Rides awesome too. Better than my 2003.

 

[dodge dude94]

Nice! Those springs are like soft rides, aren't they?

Hows it track down the road so far? And the most important question: When are you gonna put it to the test?

 

[PCA4208]

Yea rides real nice. It goes pretty straight down the road, I do need to pull the steering when and re-center it though.
I hope I can mess around with it soon. It's all dirt around here though, and I'd really like to not blow a new tire haha.

 

[dodge dude94]

More updates?

 

[PCA4208]

Nothing really. I think I'm going to make a big c channel bumper for it soon. But other than that I've just been driving it around. And taking stuff to the dump.

 

[dodge dude94]

Well, at least you've been driving it. That's something.

UPDATE

Found some "new" step tubes to put on the truck. They are some chrome Westin tubes that I got off my friends F-250. They'll need some fab work to attach, but I have a friend who has a nice big shop we can weld in. I'll ask him about making a cool front bumper while I'm there.

Over the weekend I pulled off the cowl cover and cleaned out all the leaves and stuff from the wiper arm area. The stuff that came out was pretty much mulch, if a seed were to get in there I could have grown grass in the truck. I also glued some screen to the bottom of the cover to keep out any other things. Wiper arm bushings were also replaced. Sadly no pictures of this, I was just trying to get it done.

Today I was getting irritated by the crappy sounding speakers so I had to inspect them. Turns out the aftermarket Jensen speakers my dad installed when he was my age did not age well. I'll get a picture of it up soon.

Been a while since I posted in this thread. But this weekend I had to fix the brakes. I guess stock rubber hoses and the cold don't mix to well. Driver side front blew, and passenger wasn't far behind. Got them replaced then in my hastiness to finish I stripped out a fitting on the hard line. Got a new line and bent it up to look like the original. Everything is back together, and now I just have to bleed the **** out of it. No picture because of 1. Dirty hands and new phone and 2. I was tired and wanted to just finish.

 

[dodge dude94]

Ya know, you never did get pictures of the ancient Jensen speakers in the truck.

Get off my back Will. I'm a mechanic, not a photographer. Haha
Those things are long gone anyways.

I try to be when I can. I think soon were getting a receiver hitch because towing a trailer on a lifted truck with only the bumper mounted ball really sucks. I think we're getting a stage 3 hitch from curt.
