The '97 DD

[modular]

Picked the truck up about a month ago from the original owner for $1400. It has 81K on it. Just a basic truck for daily driver service. I have completed the following since getting it:

2/3 drop
rims/tires
intake tube & snorkel mod
Dynomax Catback
Pioneer radio and speakers
clear corners
2000 tails
chrome grille
center console mod


Next to finish things up are rear air shocks and standard fronts. Anyhoo, on to the pics...

This is what I started with...

This is how it sits now...

wow, for $1400 thats a steal, i kinda like the blurple! Itd really look nice with a painted to match front bumper.

Oh, it's "Sapphire Blue" alright.....blue my a**, thats purple. I went the chrome route to break up (i.e....draw your attention away from) the purple a bit. I think it compliments to color a little more.

can you explain why you did the intake tube & snorkel mod?
i understand why a person would do it on a x4 for whater crossing but i'm confused on why someone would do it on a lowered truck?
thanks,,grey ghost

Ah, let me explain further...there is a small diameter snorkel attached to the end of the air filter housing that goes into the fender. This is removed but the airbox is still attached to the foam seal on the fender...i.e. still pulling in cold air from outside the engine compartment. The intake tube also has a resonator (looks kinda like a glass pack muffler inside) between the filter box and intake inlet for sound deadening. I removed this piece and replaced it with a section of grey PVC pipe. Sorry for the confusion.
