What if?

[cdhicks99]

What would you do to your truck if you had $1000 to spend on her?

[87pathy]

high steer knuckles, full belly skid plate, Hydraulic stearing or upgrade to a 94 steering box

[k9sar]

suspension lift and a set of black panthers

[Pezzy]

hmmm... would prob pay for like half the air locker I want...

or maybe, if all hell breaks loose @ Nissan today, I'd put it towards today's bill.

[k9sar]

how much are shock mounts?

[Pezzy]

meh, mine are fine... the bandaid is holding up quite well!

[cdhicks99]

OK here is my plan please critique as necessary:

$400 BP skids

$100 WARN hubs

$30 Idler brace

$115 3"BL

$645

 

I'm still working on the rest!

[Pezzy]

hmmm... are you lifted already? have you upgraded your CL?

[cdhicks99]

Nope she's all natural :oops:

[Pezzy]

Tires???

[cdhicks99]

32x10.5 are on their way

[Trainman]

Tires???

Tires for sure.

 

There goes the $1,000. Have to do it before snow flies next week anyway..

[cdhicks99]

Amendment #1:

-$30 Idler arm brace

+$400 L&P steering kit

$1015

[The Drift]

Lift and bushings. Any left over would go towards misc. suspension stuff.

[dagwoodzz]

$40 in gas. $960 in Beer!

 

All serious, Rough Country UCA's and TB crank, Shocks all the way around. 2" BL and pay someone to do all the labor it for me!

[Slick]

i'd get my susp lift and the L & P steering upgrade :bow:

It's easier than ice!

[5523Pathfinder]

O man, were do you start with a question like that. Probably the most needed is fabed sliders, front and rear bumpers! Or headers and exhaust? Or fix some body oopses? The list could be endless.....

[Filthy Luker]

t-case gears.

[congochris]

Sadly enough.. that'd be 1K off what I owe.... MY desire is to not mod it until after it's paid off. got bit in the rear-end on a layoff when I got a Harley I'd modded repoed. never doing that again.. 2K wasted on parts I didn't get to enjoy for very long.

[cdhicks99]

Suspension Bushings ($160)

I'm noyt sure that would be so high in my priorities.

Tires ($430)

This $1k does not count the 32x10.5 TSL's that will be ordered Mon.

E-Fan installation crap ($70)

Once again I can think of better things.

And put the other $340 towards fixing my emissions crap.

Here in TN we don't need no stinkin' emissions!

(5) 32x11.50x15" Goodyear MT/Rs ($780)

Why not Interco?

(4) new wheels (one is still new) ($150)

Those will be ordered with the tires.

ARB Rear Locker ($699)

ARB Compact Compressor ($159)

That will be in phase 2

Front LSD ($450)

Maybe phase 2

Rear Tire Carrier ($400)

Not a priority for me but that will be included in new rear bumper.

BP Front Bumper ($800 (>?< Pricing unknown at this time)

I already have plans drawn for a custom I plan to build this fall.

T-Max 10K winch from summit ($459)

Will come with bumper

New suspension links/arms ($~1200)

Now were talking! Godd money spent.

New springs ($300)

Phase 2

JWT Cams ($550)

Phase 3 will be engine build.

(2) Optima Yellow Top Batteries ($300)

Dual Battery kit ($100)

Not enough power draw yet maybe when the winch goes in.

Limb Risers ($15)

I gotta get my cargo rack first, phase ???

Replace my strobe lights ($300)

PA/Siren ($300)

Locomotive Horns w/compressor ($350)

ARB Large Freezer/Fridge ($680)

WTF? Is this a truck or a childs toy?

Cargo Organizer ($80 worth of wood)

Cool idea, I am actually planning to build a new console someday

[cdhicks99]

t-case gears.

Nice idea but remember this thing is factory now, I have to get it to that point first.

[max_stryker]

WTF? Is this a truck or a childs toy? 

 

The latter...
