The day I got it (August 20, 2013) http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/yzujudy4.jpg Had a sagging headliner so that's the first thing I took care of http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/dygyryte.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/ry3abugu.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/tesy7e3u.jpg Next up was to upgrade the dangerously dim head lights. put in a Putco wiring harness and some Autopal e-codes with Hella 100/130 lights. Just the wiring harness and stock sealed beams (my dads truck lights on the left for comparison) http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/zyqymypu.jpg Autopal with 55/60 vs sealed beam... insane difference http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/y7ajumyg.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/tu8ynepu.jpg 55/60 vs 100/130 http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/u2yje7ym.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/yne4a3ez.jpg Cleaned throttle body http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/6u8y4aze.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/vyte7yge.jpg Doors off! http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/uvytuteg.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/ura6uje7.jpg Needed more light. Hella 700ffs with Hella 100 lights http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/uhubetaz.jpg Hella 100s vs 55s http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/yve2u2u3.jpg Speakers in the kick panels http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/9asy4y2u.jpg All interior lights to leds http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/7e5ymegu.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/7epuje7u.jpg Installed Pa/Cb http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/e9yha9a2.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/yjumy2aj.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/qu7upega.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/yreba6at.jpg Front skid plate http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/uqygyqu3.jpg 6.5" speakers in the hatch http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/08/05/ege2a5yb.jpg 703 injectors (upgrades stock 1 port injectors to 4) That brings everything up to date.

Put on the 31s! I can't believe what a difference they make.

Got it good and stuck today. Lucky we were able just to rock it out. Took 5 guys to get it out haha

Ordered a welder! Got a Hobart 140. Got a few projects in mind to help me learn before I do anything serious. First will be a cart for the welder.

Headliner
What type of adhesive did you use for the headliner? how has it held up so far

It's been a year and held up great so far. When you do the edges don't pull tight, just lay it on or they will start to fall within a week. I had to take mine out and redo them. |
Brown Santa came today!

Got some new doors! They need some work, but they are way better than the ones I got now http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...50d43dd8cc.jpg

Stripped the bedliner from my bumper and ordered some mounts for it. Next is to make a new light bar for it and finally install it
|
My mounting brackets came in today which motivated me to do some work on the bumper. Cut the bar off and got it ready for paint. Just waiting on my steering box spacer now.

That's exactly what I did. Except I got the Eastwood 135. My first project also being a weld cart which still isn't done a year later...lol. I've done many projects around it though. noob weld cart build over in Fabrication. I'm pretty sure I'm subscribed to that. I'll have to check it out and see if I can get motivated to do mine |
