i saw the tires and figured you were from somplace where there is no snow.lol those would be bannana peels around here. illegal in mi, they stick out past the fenders. if the cop wants to be a jerk.

here the law is 3 inches....but i love my stickie outties....gives the truck that wide off-road look and we do get snow arround here....

its hard as hell keeping this thing clean with these wheels on it because the tires sit out so far and water off the road when it rains just blows up the side and it looks filthy all the time from road dirt and grime....

I love your truck dude, clear corners make anything look 100x better, they clean the front end of a vehicle up so good. I reckon your truck would also look way better if you took off the bed rails and maybe put your stock taillights back in, but if you like them then rock em. Awesome truck dude:cool:

i like the bed rails...def not taking those off.....but i am thinking about putting the stock red tail lights back in but they are scratched up pretty bad i think if i pull them out and hit them with the buffer with compound it will make them look alot better....i want to get me a bull bar for it and some big *** fogs...i think thats next on the list....

i had bought a remote start for the truck but in order to have it put on it was gonna cost me an extra 200 bucks that i didnt have so im like f- it and took it back because it wont doin nothin but sittin in my bed room not bein used at all...i really didnt want the remote start for it b ecause id rarely use it i just wanted the remote door locks because my truck either: A....Didnt come with remote locks...or B the person who had the truck before us lost them or didnt hand them over

we bought my truck from a dealership in 2000 i think....not sure but the dealership had bought the truck off an auction block the truck and before the truck went to auction it was a company vehicle...ive done a complete carfax history report on it and shes clean.....no wrecks, nothing....

here is a pic of the truck a day or 2 after we got it

no actually the headlights arnt rice...i like them they are bright as hell and help out visiblity....

pipes i was gonna run straights but after saturday i dont have a job anymore :-( im thinkin about just gettin under the truck and completely choppin the muffler off and havin straights that dont come all the way back to the back of the truck....here in va its leagle to have straights as long as you have cats and its gotta dump behind the cap....im thinkin maybe cut the exhaust out and put some turn down tips on it so it will be hitting the ground???

if ur going to run straights run them all the way out the back...if urs has the 5.7 its going to be really loud under the cab if u drop em right there..we did it to my friends with the 5.7 and we had chery bombers on there and it was just to loud so he got them ran all the way out the back..now this is what i cruise most the time 1987 f250/350 xlt 4x4 6.9 diesel and its got straight pipe no cats no nothin nice and loud :D

if you offroad it dump the exhaust infront of teh axle. i have a 92 GMC 4x4 with 33's ext. cab SB, very similar to your truck. i had a flow 40 on it with dual tail pipes straigh out the rear but off road i bent one into the ground. ditched that setup for a Delta flow 40 dumped in front of teh rear axle. sounds great other than lots on interior resonance.

As far the the tires sticking out past the fenders, mine stick out some but not much, it gives the truck a more aggressive look, fills the fenderwells much better.

i washed her up today...then detailed it....a fresh coat of wax really makes the truck look damn good...that maroon is just a bad *** color...i think if i have to get another truck it def will be maroon...

ill get pics of her all cleaned up tomorrow


oh yea underpowerd....is your door bushings shot on your truck too...i kno that chevrolet trucks are famous for the door bushings going out...and my door bushings are shot...

see the thing bout me running straights completely out the back is i dont have the money right now to get the extra pipe bent up and so on....so i was just gonna cut the pipe off right before it gets in to the muffler then put a turn down on it so its hitting the ground it wont really be dumping out under the cab, it will be dumping at the ground right infront of the axle under the bed....and yes i do have the 350 5.7

yeah, my door pin bushings a shot, typical chevy problem.

Dupming the exhaust is one of the best things i ahve done to my truck, gives it a differendt tone than rear exits. IMO it sounds better. my truck almost has a camaro like sound to it now.

i think im going to get the saws all out and hack the exhaust off right before it goes into the exhaust and get 2 turn down tips to go on it...cheaper then runnin straight lines all the way back...

TCracin440ex
01-07-2006, 03:13 PM
