I hear you on the money thing though, I may just take the focus out to backwoods since I need new rear tires on the truck.

Speaking of which I was at my friends house talking to his dad for a bit and we were talking about his 32 ford hes got and the new wheels he just picked up for it. I asked what hes doing with the old wheels and hes like you want them you can have em, sure enough same bolt pattern and spacing, fit PERFECT. So now I have a set of centerlines, 14s in the front 15s out back, cant wait to get the new rear tires since the front tires are brand new. Also I finally painted the hood on the truck, looks real good, but I miss the confused faces I got with the rust Also decided Imma be dragging a little tree on the truck as well to show some FocalJet love (focus forum) Ontop of that I came up with a solution to protecting my down pipe since I just had it remade, and Im not looking to drag through it again. Put an exhaust clamp on where it dragged andnow its protected! Ill get some pics of the painted hood tomorrow before work if I remember

[goatwrangler]

looks good man i just got my 89 dime today....its lowered 5/6 already but i plan on baggin it later on in the future...just wanted to subscribe to ur thread....

[nolowis2low]

what are u draggin? Where did u mount em? this front crossmember will only last me so long. LOL

[Built2NV]

hahaha yea I hear ya, I mounted them where the bed and cab meet I think, worked good as you can see lol

[nolowis2low]

yea just with my set up, ive got that chance of burning through a bag putting them there.

[Built2NV]

truu never thought bout that with a two link, whatever though just drag that shit!

[nolowis2low]

well iam dragging the front as much as possible. but i know that frame only has so much to it, but ive got some brackets in the making, should ahve em done in the next week.

[Built2NV]

Another update for this finally and a ton of pictures! Swapped my crappy faded chromegrill and black bumper for mint chrome ones with some guy I met at Checkers (food place), Resprayed the truck Navy Blue and got a window banner aswell. Also relocated my tank to the bed as it dragged pretty bad and I dont want it to rip a hole in it, not the prettiest but a temp fix till I can get the fuel cel and bed setup properly. Also got some new taillights which I traded for my old ones covered in overspray. Looking to get some new pics soon.

Oh yea Im officially going to Backwoods now so Ill see you guys there!!!

First pics are some I took with my boy on Memorial Day like a week after we lowered his truck and the last 5 are some random cell phone pics.

[dagreenmonster]

[nolowis2low]

green was much better. but blue looks good. what are u painting with?

[s10dollar]

looks like u need a blue air freshner for you plate like before lol

[Built2NV]

haha yea, I was iffy on the blue but it grew on me real quick once I got all the chrome. Im not actually staying at backwoods Im leaving at like 6am friday night and staying all day sat staying for a few hotel parties hopefully then going home, my boy needs to be home for Sunday.

EDIT: Im painting it with the cheapo walmart paint, has been holdig up really well surprsingly

[Built2NV]

Got some updated pic for you guys with my boy Joeys truck with the 17s back on the front, looks 100x better. Also got some real nice shots of our trucks too in this random area we found a few towns over. Updates on my truck are relocated gas tank and finally did my coolant overflow tank. Next up is my new wiring harness for the headlights with relays from LMC and installing my diamond headlights and 12000k HID kit cant wait!

i just checked the weather and it's supposed to to be pretty nice.
judd and rob are meetin me at dunkin by the DMV around 8 then goin up to best buy around 9.

[Built2NV]

damn thats wayy late bro, place usually fills up round 8 you know that haha. I dont know when Im going but Im definetely going. Yea Im going to backwoods but only for saturday got my sisters graduation sunday.

[V8Blaze]

truck looks great, what was the reason for moving the tank. Any plans on a more permanent solution

also, your bumper lights are on the wrong sides lol

[Built2NV]

Moved the tank because I almost dragged through the damn thing. I just got a fuel cell the other day needa see if I can use my sending unit from the stock tank in it, but I think Im just going to use the one in it (0-90) and get an external fuel pump. I didnt even notice the bumper lights, how you know there are on the wrong sides, Im sure its obvious haha

[V8Blaze]

B/c the light goes to the outsides of the bumper, it helps with it clearing the body mount, i dont even think i could get mine on with the light towards the inside. And its not really obvious, i just put some clear lights in my bumper and it bothers me the bulbs aren't centered in the housings stock, and it occured to me it was to help clear the front core support mount so changing the bulb isnt a huge bitch

[Built2NV]

OK cool thanks for the info man, never really had an issue changing the bulbs but whatever Ill swap it out next time I got the bumper off.

[Woody22]

truck looks awesome man.
Thanks for the sweet deal on those drop leafs for my blazer...lookin forward to puttin em on. lol

[Matt96Dime]

dont put 20s on it..i say keep it just like that..its baddass!!!

[Built2NV]

Everyone keeps tellin me, especially the old school guys, to leave it as is just fix the body up and repaint it. I personally like the look of the 20s, when I tell people Im doing 20s or 22s the reactions are priceless. Im still torn between 20s or 22s. I dont think Ill ever body drop the truck so 22s wont be a problem

[dagreenmonster]

u going to the show at sears in hicksville tomorrow?

[Built2NV]

I may come by later on Im going to bimmerfest in NJ I think with my boy but well be back by like 2 so Imma shoot over there and chill for a bit

[Built2NV]

Today my compressor just took a shit on me... Really sucks because I dont have all the parts to do my EDC yet so the truck is down now

[wirrrey21]

both of them took a shit???? i have an extra 450 if you need a compressor to get you around.

[Built2NV]

Only one did, really sucks. It was burning up relays out of no where went through like 5 then it finally took a shit.

[Built2NV]

Even with one compressor down I still got it out to go dragging. Got some new brackets made and bolted up some balls. It was too nice of a night to pass up, especially after the nasty humid days we just had. Heres some pics and 2 videos. Should have 2 more once my boy uploads them off his iPhone.

HIDs I got off ebay from the seller hid4u like 55 and change shipped. The corners are from ebay as well. For the HIDs though you will need tog et the composite lights which take an H4 bulb, got them for 25 off ebay as well haha.

Yea I can wait to freakin do this man, I can finally use my other cab and that one will be wayy less rust to repair, which is even better!

The air freshener is classic haha Im lookin to get the "new car scent" one for shits n giggles haha

[Built2NV]

Went out with Joey (Lost Reality on here) and his brother (53 Chevy) and got some pics on Monday. Driving offroad in a bagged truck at full lift is not fun, talk about a slow bumpy ride hahaha

[curt_minke]
