Gen 1 "Build"

[86FSB]

Not really much of a build so far but I thought I'd post some of what I've been doing to my truck.

I bought this truck over a year ago from a stealership and I've been piling the miles on it.



Day I bought it. Knew it needed some new shocks, and the dealer put those garbage tires on it.





SVC was having a sale on the fox 3.0s so I bought some and installed them. Easy.

Bought an SVC smurf bumper and installed it.





Built a rear bumper and dove tailed it.

At some point the truck got Icon 3.0s in the rear and some maintenance items (balljoints, UCAs, plugs/wires/coils/pellets etc.) as well as tinted front windows. I fabricated a GPS mount for the truck but haven't gotten around to ordering an HDS for it yet.



Just ordered Method 304s and 37" Toyo MTs for it. When I get back home for the holiday I'll go pick those up and smash the pinch welds.

Future plans are to build a 9 inch for the rear and link it as well as fabricating a mid travel set up (+3) with another bypass shock. I'd like to do a 7.3 in it but that's a ways out.

Fixed the stupid door ajar wiring issue.



Beat the pinch welds back. Picking up my new wheels and tires in the morning. Ill get under there with a blow torch and make the plastic bend lmao

Maybe its just me, but i have a set of +2 fenders and bedsides that i've been avoiding installing. Are you installing them yourself or getting done by a shop? Would love to see a solid write up on getting the fitment down on them, especially as to the bedsides as theres little to no info on how to get them on well.
