project daily/wheeler b3000

[Endoverend47]

ive been doing alot lately so i figured i may as well make up a build thread.
i picked this truck up in early october after i sold my 2wd ranger, and my samurai project.
anyway we all love pictures so.....on to the pics

when i picked her up

immediately started the build process
steel for my sliders

action shot with sliders

then i found explorer leather seats, center console and over head console for $70! and added a set of gauges so i know my actual oil pres, water temp, and voltage.

up next came the rear bumper

then i found myself a lift for dirt cheap, i know the radius arm drop brackets suck but i cant afford extended ones yet so these will do for now

the 2 car garage where everything is built

under the knife

first drive on the lift was over to my friends huge shop, had to take some pictures under the light

yes i know i have a bit of a camber issue that im working on fixing

up next is how i decided to lay out the bed. built the highlift mounts and the mounts for the pick/axe and shovel are called quickfist clamps.

the high lift mounts

the bed

and for some reason my truck came with no passanger side oh shit handle, so after a few girls started complaining i added one.

and at the moment i am in the process of building a plate style winch bumper for up front, but in the mean time i threw some hella 500s i had laying around on the factory bumper.

i will keep updating as i build, next will be the front bumper

Lookin good man, are those the 4 inch or 6 inch coils??

they are the 6, the 4inch coils only gave 3inches of lift. and with my drop brackets in the 4inch holes my tires were like this /---\. so i put the 6inch ones in and i love it.

 

[jhammel85]

Very nice. It's gotta great stance.

 

[RacinNdrummin]

Bummer dude, sorry those 4 inchers didnt work out for ya, they measured out right, maybe it was a drop bracket thing?? I dont know, glad you got it figured out, and the truck looks great.

small update

got some 33x12.5r15s on rims.

then went wheelin
sway bar still hooked up

played on some rocks, open diffs suck and i didnt want to break anything

oh and landed on the sliders for the first time with the lift

so monday i believe i got bad gas, my friends jeep and my truck both have been gutless since monday. i have been going through everything to try and figure it out and i believe that my injectors are clogged, whats the best way to clean them out?

 

[89PBR96]

Try that lucas fuel injector Cleaner or Sea Foam local parts store will have this.

 

[RacinNdrummin]

Where is that at??

Also looks like your gonna need an FA600 pitman arm in the near future

The best, only sure way to un-clog injectors, is to head to Dr. Injector, get new o-rings, filters, and pintle caps and go through your injectors... Any bottle of "injector cleaner" is just snake oil... and Sea-Foam is WAY overrated... I think people just like to make a bunch of smoke...

the pictures are from tahuya

wanna do it for me? i really dont want to mess with the injectors lol

 

[RacinNdrummin]

Is there snow in tahuya right now???

 

[Endoverend47]
