Shot this photo of it at the Wallington Bog & Grog in NY.
The 383 that was in the truck when he got it, ended up throwing a bearing. So in went a brand new 383 from blueprint. Here he is is fiddling with that.
Dead thread is dead. Perhaps i can revive it with some pictures of my mudder. 78 suburban 4" lift, 35"x10.50 super swampers, 500hp 350 with a turbo350 trans.
95 s10 4.3 5 speed manual .. 3" BL, 31" super swamper SSR's mounted on 15" craiger "street lock" steel wheels, nice sound system, cb, toolbox ... O and a custom made brush gaurd with daylighter spotlights (bright as F***)
The truck i dove to highschool, im in college now and have a 03 24v gti VR6 ... and i still play with this when i go back to my home town
Sorry about the fingers... I was trying to shield the sun.
Figuring out what I got myself into.
The guy who sold it to me said he bought it for his ex gf and they broke up so she came back and splattered red paint all over the drivers side.... I'm sure that was the case...:sly:
The bed was so rusted out. But luckily, it came with another bed that was not too bad actually, except it is blue. So we had to get the old one off. We are a tad *******, so we just used the tree and a come along... worked...
Future plans include another lift to get about 12 inches total. I would love to have it as high as the blue one posted by adriansaysstfu!! Maybe some better axles and a cheap paint job too.:thumbup:
