Do it! it's like $34 paint job.haha.. if you want it to really look legit buy a harbor freight spray gun and go to town. eventually that's the plan for this.. I just wanted it to look half way decent.

i would have left it multi colored.

No, it's levitating. c'mon AJ, are you too old and blind to see the chain on each side of it attached to the door?

To the garage door though right? What happens when you roll down the garage door??

The light just gently swings down out of the way, without it you can't see shit in the bed area of the truck.

What about the power cord? I'm only asking these questions because I will run into the same type of problems in my garage...

The electrical at the house is as hack as humanly possible, so that's hack too. Just an extension-cord, and the cord coming off the light gets thrown over the garage-door track and plugged in, when not in use it gets wrapped around the light. Not really a great way of doing it, but it works. You should see some of the wiring going on in the garage, it's pretty epic.

Bummer, those things are sweet, way better than the normal Daystar bumps. Got mine today, thanks man, you've got a GFO shirt headed your way once we et the next order printed up. Gotta give you a call next week, need parts again.

Steal one of elliot's mikey, he's got 2 anyways.

Engine Cage This was on it when i bought it.

Poker-run this weekend is going to be rad, the truck is no longer that much of a cop magnet, sounds bad ass, and with 2 spares it settled perfectly. 100% break, roll, die, or win, 200% catch on fire.

On a slightly related note, if you have an 06 f150 with clogged cats and a single-chamber muffler, and you replace the cats with straight pipes, it's going to sound like a top fuel car that's running on 5 cylinders, don't do it.

just an fyi... that is an exact copy of my original engine cage i made with a flux core welder in 2004. i predict it will kick ass for 1 year then self destruct through your hood. haha. looks much better than when you got it. DW

Went to a poker run in Barstow.
Max and I Dominated the pack First 4 wheel finisher we only got beat by 8 dirt bikes...and then we did another lap

This truck is so much fun.


I think I was saying OHHH SHIT

truck looks good..how did the back to in comparison do the front?

Trucks are way more fun when they are cheap and simple. Cool toy, I'm jealous.

Looks awesome!

Got any photos of how you did the rear shocks?

dam i really like them fenders..no name inside the fenders?..

shock angle of fail. wtf

There is only so much you can do with 9 inch stroke Tampon Pro Comps.

Those are going to be on there for a bit until I save up some more cabbage for shocks/metal etc for the bed cage.

they look like glassworks... or they look like mine... and mine are glassworks

and the truck looks badass, just a plain and simple little beater. youve gotten more done to yours in a month than i have to mine in 2 1/2 years.

The front rides a lot better than the back. I cant wait to get shocks and bed cage. The back rides wayyyy better then when I got it.

A month haha you mean less than 2 weeks... that's what having bad ass friends are for.

Two white rockets per wheel FTW. This truck is totally awesome LOL.

oh and I am scoring some 33x10.5.15 bfg ats next week.. just in time of ocotillo

the thing looks rad, toyotally awesome sums it up

what size tires are you running right now? i want to get fiberglass fenders before i go LT, but i dont want it to look goofy with 29" hahah. medium tires on stock susp.=rubbing like crazy!

They are some haggard 32x 11.5 x15 Bfg M/T.

Personally I would save your $ for the LT and then get glass.
Keep the smaller tires for now you will get better mileage.

E

thats what i was thinking, but i dont want them rubbing on the stock fenders. also, have you heard of anybody with batch racing LT? id go TC but the batch setup is only 1300$

haha i believe batch racing is DNFnate on here. seems like a cool guy online but be careful. he recently turned up in the shady fabricators thread.
