I have been working on both trucks. The red 99 I picked up some different wheels and tires 31x10.50 bfg at's...looks alot better than those little car tires. I also changed out the ps pump because it was making noise. Changed the RCM and cured the abs light, managed to get the front driveshaft back together and then found out the y pipe was in the way so I had a muffler shop relocate it. Not much left mechanically on the red truck. I still need to install the front driveshaft and charge the a/c. Its going in the garage tommorrow, I am going to respray the red because the paints too thin. Probably be up for sale after all is done. Took some time and drove the red truck and painted the front of the black one...long over due! I wish the black truck got as good mpg as the red one...$@#% Anyway here's a few pics.

Man that black truck looks soooo good. The red truck looks much better with the new tires. Maybe you should make the red one the DD then turn the black one into the offroad truck. Or do it the other way around and make the run truck get worse MPG so it makes you feel better about the black truck lol.

 

Man I wish I could paint cars like that. Looks great!

 

Well the paints not purfect but I figure I'll buff it later. Why go thru all the work then take it off road...lol

 

sweet man trucks look great...wish i could get that frame so i could get mine looking good

 

nice trucks

 

Thanks! I have put alot of work into both of them...They both started out as 2wd trucks!!!

Crazy Amazing!

Wish I had the skills to do that!

 

Haha John looks good man if u ever need a hand let me know man u have my number...and i know a thing or 2 about turnin a wrench.

 

I might take you up on that sometime. Thanks for the offer. Remember I live with 3 females.

 

Haha ouch man....haha yeah that sucks man...But yeah its no big thing i live about maybe what 30 mins away from your house. OO yeah when i did the other side of my trucks spark plugs they were done in 30 mins...how about that...i was like wtf

 

Glad you got em done, sounds like you had a battle!

 

both trucks are looking better and i like the new tires and rims on the red truck

 

Thanks! Yeah I like those wheels too, I was actually thinking of switching them before I sell it but I also have a set of the edge wheels that will probably end up on the black truck eventually.

 

Both truck look darn good! Ever thought of painting the grill on the black on to match the truck?

 

It didn't want it to be all black but maybe I should have went darker though...

 

It looks kinda like my faded grill, but it stands out more on a black truck imo.

 

I painted it with silver spray paint.

 

Looks good! (Silver grill and all)

 

Thanks, The next step is newer tails and seats. I am trying to come up with something to update the dash...they all look the same and I don't like the painted look...lol
