since i have a blown rear shock, didnt really want to go fast so i did some "flexing" in the truck






















[/QUOTE]

 

Sweet.

 

Lookin' good Eric. You're one of the few people to blow a 5100, so good job, haha.

 

looks great

 

nice pics

 

lookin good, we need to take our trucks out somewhere.

 

Looks great!

 

The truck looks amazing! Get a pre-runner front bumper and paint the flared fenders and it would be golden. How much did the blitz mid travel kit cost? Did you install it or have a shop do it?

 

Nice where is that at?

 

trent, ha ya i guess i can say i beat on my truck, because all the oil from the 5100 is in my driveway now haha.

sanityaside, lets do it, i should be puttin on a procomp shock that my buddy has from his silverado this weekend.


0rangeredge2, i am building the bumper tomorrow at a shop called shrockworks that does mostly rock crawlers so the bumper will be done tomorrow, fenders will stay white until i get bedsides and a new hood then the whole truck will get repainted.


andy, that is down the bayou right by Christian Brothers Auto by Kroger in those retention ponds.

and thanks guys, the pics where all taken by my brother with a cannon digi cam.

 

nice truck.. always wanted to go the LT route, but im just too far away from anything fun to use it on.

i plan to move south in a few years, so im sure i'll build a 2wd ranger

 

Truck looks good! Out of all of the things that need to be done t o the truck the LP on the grill would drive me nuts the most.

 

cool pics

 

ha that was a quick fix when i left the shop in california... and i was too lazy to re mount it.
it will be on the skid plate tuesday though, got the bumper built today

 

is it done yet?

i wanna see the pic of the bumper!
how'd you blow the shock?

 

nice pics!

 

60-70mph.. got off the normal line i take on the service road, hit a wash out and the back end bucked up about 4ft and landed on the back left tire hard(rubbed the inside part of the wheel well towards the inside of the bed)

pics will be up in a few

 

That sounds WAY too familiar, haha. Link it and solve that problem! I will hate leaves the rest of my life, :) .

 

give me your links then! haha i am soooo broke right now, i can barley afford a happy meal at McDonalds ha. and i owe about 1300 on the credit card still haha.

heres pictures of the bumper, and ill post them in my "project log" thread also













we started at about 930am, and finished it at about 530pm with a little break for lunch

ill get the completed picture of it tomorrow, and then some more once i box in the frame some more and add another tube between the frame rails

 

i like how you ripped off the bumper gives it a mean looks anyone else with me?
whats your suspenson mod .pretty good travel on those front wheels

 

13" travel up front. Blitz Mid Travel kit

ha i put the stock bumper on one day and it looked like a fat chick wearing a tight shirt.. ha fenders stuck out 6" wider than the bumper ha.
with this bumper ill have more protection for my radiator

 

ya i wanna rip my bumper off and through some liight off but i dont wont to do the whole metal cage i just want to make a skid plate do you think that would look good on my truck

 

its all personal preference. i know people who think my truck looks like **** or its gay, but im still going to drive it and build it b/c i like it

 

ya i hear that i get mixed looks and opions

 

That's one kick a$$ truck. how much did the mid travel kit run you, and where did you get it. The truck will look perfect when you get the bedsides, and paint everything
