Rear Axel: JD traction Bars (might build my own)

Engine upgrades:

200A alternator to keep up with various power demands.
nice deep exhaust system

Up in the air mods......

Rear headache rack for Ham and CB Radios.

Mount icom IC-208H radio. (in progress)

Finish my front cross member/ tow hook mount / weld on front receiver tube. (all done and mounted except receiver)


I think it would look badass once ive got that stuff on it. might build what i can. spiff the ole girl up. more than likley i will add to the list. but fist i need to pay dad back the 3500 bux i owe then let the mods begin.




Don't knock me cause im 2wd......and want a locker. open diff aint that bad, i did the azusa ricon trail.......after the river crossing was fun. most fun useing my brain to date. (finding the good line)

 

You are going to have a hard time fitting Day Liters on the bumper. Go for slimlites instead. Otherwise nice list you got going.

 

havent researched the lighting much if any yet......lol some time.

 

Hella 500s are pretty slim too.
or you can get light tabs

but it looks like you have a nice list, and yes, it will grow :p

 

dude go for this lift if you want 33s

it is well worth it my friend and is probably cheaper than the 4" lift you were looking at. i have this same lift on my 92 and it is sweet.

 

nice, i was looking at it but i chose not too. my dad complains about getting into my small cab as it is. arthritis sp? so gotta keep it somewhat reasonable. dont wanna cary a stepladder for him to get in lol. plus i still like taking corners fast :D

 

Wow... first few things... if your going to do it, do it right.. Go 6" cause the 4" isn’t really that big... go 33x12.5x15 not 10.5 if you want to still have handling. Rule of thumb when you go UP go OUT with the tires...

Next you CAN fit daylighters on the bumper unlike what "91redranger" said obviously he has never owned a set of daylighers before. The mounting stud is all the way in the back of the light.

Now on a personal preference I think daylighters look goofy on the front but they will still fit...

Next those mirrors are REPRODUCTION JAP mirrors of Ford Factory mirrors i had to buy one after one of my Ford one's got hit.. They SUCK ***.. The adjustability of them is about 1/2 what real ford one's are, and in a few months the mirrors get lose and vibrate like mad.. In other words find REAL Ford mirrors...

 

i don't wanna go big. just very mild/light.

everything is still up in the air on the lights and tires. firm on the lift. im so broke right now lol it will be at least 2 years before i do anything to the truck.

 

might as well get a rought contry lift if you are poor... its only $450 for a 4" lift

 

yea but it is alot better kit as in extended radius arms etc. and 4" will not be enough for your truck to fit 33 i dont think you ll have to most likly run glass.

 

I said he would have a hard time because I did. They look goofy and dont have much adjustability. I have the Hella 500s.
