wildpeaks just to be different =)

 

fyi grabbers are amazing in snow and pretty much any other condition you can throw at them.. only downside is loud and wobbly after 20k klms

 

Well, called a shop i know on a indian reservation. great part is theres no taxes. :)

BFG's are 936
wildpeaks are 1000.

im feelin the wildpeaks. ill pull my BFG's so their easier to sell since their off the truck. they are checking on a time frame of availability.

 

That still sounds expensive doesn't it? I paid 860 tax in for my Duratracs in the same size.

 

tires have gon up alot. these falkens are 1400 tax in at any other dealer.

~So the falkens are ordered, they will go on next thursday at the earliest. 33x12.5R15's. and im hopefully selling my 33x10.5's for $600 to one of the guys in the ORC.

~supposed to be picking up the wider axle this weekend, gonna double check on that one.

~also, trading my stock bumper for a prerunner bumper. going to change it a bit, but its a good start and gets rid of my stock bumper as i wont be needing that. going to run support tubes, build a new skidplate, and gusset it. I just needed a bar that is pre-bent for the front curve as i dont have a bender and dont wanna pay $30 per bend from a shop.

 

That bumper looks good. I find those prerunner bumpers are hit and miss. They either look **** or like they need a ton of work to make em look good on the truck.

 

I don't like that bumper but to each there own.

What is this "wider axle" you are talking about? F150 8.8?

 

That bumper definitely needs a little work to match what's going on with your truck but it's a good starting point!

 

I have hankook dynapro atms in a stock size. found them on line in the 33x1250x15 for 186 each. i love these tires. have never let me down.

these guys have a good test and review of the hankooks bfgs and toyos

^ I agree. I loved those tires! Every 4x4 my family owns has them. The only problem I ever had was with extremely wet roads. Other than that the dynapros are a great tire! And not a bad price either.

 

some fun with the boys.









the wider axle is a 93+ ranger axle. my current axle is a narrower 8.8 from 92

 

Washed the truck for the first time in a month lol

 

A good wash does wonders.

 

why would you swap out the original axle in the truck for a pre 92 axle then swap back? did the original one blow up?

 

Bought it built for 300. Didnt wanna bother with movingthe gears over, and wasnt aware its not as wide till it was in the truck.

 

you have a cool truck.

 

Thank you! I really enjoy working on it and making it my own.




So i fixed my Blend door issue. Turns out the motor in the control box crapped out. $60 later, i have hot or cool air again!

 

Trucks lookin good. also question, when you are talking about money and prices for stuff is that in american dollars or those crazy canadian dollars?

 

canadian lol. but the exchange rate right now is .97, so its almost the same amount.

 

This is Canadian money.

 

Yup! I can walk into a toys-r-us and case the monopoly shelf. Walk out with a a cool half mil in a couple minutes.

 

Offroad fun.

Friends truck just finished the lift.

 

Nice pics... not sure if it's just the way they're flared out but those front fenders look a few shades darker than the rest of the truck!

 

they are about a shade off, combined with the different angles of light it makes them seen very off. in the sun they look great, only in the shade or cloudy do you really notice it. beats white though! especially if ya knew what i paid to get them painted

 

Makes sense... pictures always make the colour differences more obvious!
