I had originally started another thread for this truck, with maybe one post in it. For all the updates I decided that it deserved a new one and slowly I thought the title became more and more appropriate.
The day I drove it off the lot of a dealer in Mt. Pleasant, ON.
First up came the back rack and tool box. Found on Kijiji (our Canadian version of Craigslist) together for $150. Hence why the back rack is technically a little too tall, but it gets used for work and a little extra clearance away from the cab never hurt anybody.
Put a Super 10 muffler on after but unfortunately no pictures of that...
Then came tires and 2" rear spacers....Tires are 32x11.5x15 BFG TA KO2 and spacers were another great Kijiji find
Then back to school and money became tough to come by for truck parts. Rather than going to class and doing work I spent most of my time scouring Kijiji for parts. Managed to find a K&N CAI for cheap, (yes I know this is a widely debated mod on this forum, but the filter was in good shape, it was relatively cheap, and has helped my fuel economy a bit so im pleased), and someone who was willing to buy me a new set of tails of my choice in exchange for my clear ones. Chase if you're on here....Thanks again.
Out with the old...
In with the new-ish...
Like the shiny stock look so went with those, found for 50 bucks on ebay.
FINALLY got the 4" RCX lift on....
More Kijiji finds...picked up a bush bar for 80 bucks, along with 4 KC lights that some guy was going to put on his Jeep then ended up selling the Jeep. Picked up all 4 for $125. Still have some work to do to make the push bar fit perfectly, but I still think it looks pretty good.
In front of a house we just built for work, probably my favorite picture to date.
Of course still lots of work to do, 2 whips that need to go on, lots of exhaust work, new wheels, and the last two KCs on the back rack among many other things.
More updates to come!
