|
Awesome man, sounds like some good plans. Any plans on doing anything to the outside like wheels?
|
Nice! Welcome to the ORC!
|
nice truck! welcome to orc!
|
na im just gonna keep the stockers, i like the way they look and they'll balance 35's well. the running boards and bug deflector are definatly gone tho.
|
35s on 17s look good, that's what my setup is. Good to see another sclb 2nd gen
|
i've only owned regular cabs, i dont like short beds and a long bed with anything else is too long.
|
I used to have a pretty customized short bed 3rd gen up until mid january. I had owned it since i was 15 and put ALOT into it. I like short beds on 2wd street trucks but a 4x4 definitely needs to be longer
|
agreed, it just looks out of porportion with a short bed up high. i've had my hands on a couple street trucks but i like the mud too much. that and power can be made in anything with decent cubes.
|
That's true. Here's a couple pics of my old truck.

Welcome
|
welcome to the site, good luck with your truck, do you plan to lower it or lift it any?
|
glad you made it over here!!
|
Hey man, sorry I am just now getting in here. Take care of that truck. I can guarantee that selling it will be a regrettable moment later. Sounds like you've got some great plans for it though!
|
its gonna get 3" progressive rate coil springs up front and mini paks in the back to get rid of the lift blocks. gonna git some resivioured shocks. full roll cage in the bed under the camper shell and gonna brace the front end too.. im just goin for a street legal pre runner (baja truck)
|
Welcome to ORC! I haven't seen too many V-10s. Definitely something worth hanging on to.
|
Hell yeah dude. I love prerunners
|
yeah the 8.0's are a semi rare engine, it only had a 10 year run and without it the viper might not of been. the way i see it the muscle truck craze is gonna take off in the next 20 years or so and it will appriciate in value. that and a 10 cylender symphany sounds O so badass
