[Logant]

I started this awhile ago been doin little stuff here and there just started with a total chaos kit with upper control arms and some 2.5 king coilovers I’ve been workin on doing the full long travel rear with the Deavers under the axle 12 inch shackles and some 16’’ foa shocks I think it’ll work out pretty good had to build my own bed cage been learning how to rebuild shocks and stuff like that. Later in as I go

Awesome - don’t see too many 1st Gen’s being built from stock these days. Here’s a bunch of stuff I compiled on 1st gens over the past 6 years from setting up suspension to around 30 build threads if you’re interested.

Been lacking on the threads but a lot has been happening I changed the tire combo went to a little slimmer tire to lose some weight and went to a OG ar23s to give it a more 90s look also needed some much needed love on the rear shocks

Also I went ahead and built off of my bed cage making a spare tire carrier mainly to put some weight in the rear behind the axle

KOH was huge the truck was running better than it has in a long time absolutely hammered down on this thing had a sick time
RIP my motor mounts but it was worth it

 

[Logant]

Have some big plans for this thing
Have a long travel kit for the front in the works
Just bought some pretty standard 2.5x8 coilovers for a sweet deal just need a little TLC this things gonna rip whole new front end redo coming up

Yeah, hes talking about the frame-side mounts - the ones welded to the frame. Solid offroad [in the link he posted] makes a fabricated frame-side mount too (in case yours are wasted).

Oh yeah those are sweet. Thankyou I haven’t seen those that might be a much needed upgrade
