    Disco rear bumper upgrade

    Exactly, that was the intent. I don't add any "armor" until I damage something a few times and get tired of doing body work. Since this mod, all I've done as far as paint and body, is $.99 walmart flat black.. so nice.

    Disco rear bumper upgrade

    Yea, I will Sat. Seriously though, it's just a piece of channel plate slide between the frame rails with a winch sitting on it. I'll knock it out this evening and send it home with Lindsey.

    Don't go to any extra trouble brother, I'm currently lacking sufficient funds.

    http://www.gmfullsize.com/forum/showthread.php?t=128363&page=2 It's just a channel plate slide between the frame rails with the winch sitting in it. When you say winch block, do you mean the fairlead? I think the fairlead is an important part of being able to use the winch.

    New exhaust for the Disco

    I like it, probably because it's quieter than the junk it replaced, and it feels like it has a little more pep. Kinda sounds like a glass pack, only lots quieter and no "crackle" on decel.

    New exhaust for the Disco

    Sure thing. Well I have a welder, but I'm not a welder, if you get my drift. The y-pipe turned out pretty sweet. The bullet muffler went in the cat position, and the extra 2-1/4 bends in above pics were to modify the left side for d-shaft clearance. I painted the y with bbq paint also...

    Disco rear bumper upgrade

    Busted.:uhoh2: This was my favorite rendition of your truck, and pretty much my end goal. I think this will be an awsome compromise of DD, weekend warrior, crawler, mud pit king and yard tractor. In other words, jack of all trades, master of none. Kinda fits my persona. BTW, never did...

    New exhaust for the Disco

    The exhaust on my truck had been mangled, partially ripped off, modified multiple times, and in general, looked and sounded like ass. I ordered a straight stick of pipe, a Hooker Aerochamber, a y-pipe, and a bullet type muffler from Jegs. A friend gave me an old diesel exhaust (mandrel bends)...

    Disco rear bumper upgrade

    After damaging and repairing my lower rear bedsides so much the metal had fatigued enough to start tearing, I decided something else needed to be done. Old timers will notice I just stole someone else's idea. Lopped off the damaged area and removed rear bumper.. Sectioned factory mounts...

    LMC Truck are good folks

    I ordered a grill from them for my '98, it came in busted. I called and asked for return instructions because the box wasn't damaged, he said keep it they don't have any use for a busted grill. New one arrived in a couple days. I wound up repairing it and it's actually on the truck today, I seem...

    Wiregrass Wheelers & Pensacola 4x4 @ Boggs & Boulders

    Yea, when I still had IFS cranked, a 9.5 semi floater out of a van, and 10" rims, this thing had a pretty narrow track width. I always thought it could swallow a set of 12 wides. Well SAS added approx 3-4" of track width, then the 12's added another 4". What I ended up with was something a rich...

    Wiregrass Wheelers & Pensacola 4x4 @ Boggs & Boulders

    No, all my stuff is straight off the ORU shelf. Of course I paid to much, and had to deal with a smart ass, but I had 5 days to get it back on the street and didn't need any suprises. There Atlas and they are the soft ride or + 6" ones. I never measured them, but eventually thinking a new set...
