new guy outa California

Postby braptor52 » Mon Mar 04, 2013 11:18 am

hey all, names Riley. from sonoma county, CA. recently picked up my first cummins in September of 2012. a 91.5 single cab short bed 5spd 4x4 truck. its a w350, started its life off as a single cab long bed cab an chassis. frame has been shortened in front of the rear springs an a gas short bed put on.

trucks currently on a 6" skyjacker lift, 35" BFG mud terrains, an 17" method race wheels (was on 37" BFG Baja t/a"s). she sits about 2" higher in the front so im plannin on gettin a set of 4" leafs for the front to level it with the rear. also has a sky jacker duel steering stabalizer, 4" straight exhaust from the downpipe, pump has been modified, converted fuseabile links to fuses, BD cool guy valve covers, K&N cold air intake, custom grill, bumpers, KDP fix, Kenwood stereo/ JL audio 6x9 door speakers/ Kenwood 4x10 rear speakers/ MTX 10" sub an amp, mag hytecs all around, an a pair of Hella fog lights with a factory fog light switch panel.

truck has came a long way since ive owned it. previous owner hacked a few things but luckily the harness was nearly untouched. had to replace almost the entire interior, different bench, dash, inst cluster, headliner, trim, air ducts, etc.

almost finished with this truck but still have a few more things id like to do.
Redo the frame shortnening job
gauges (pyro,boost,tach)
maybe twin stick the 205
lower front end
cross over steering?
add sway bars
lockers
re do paint an body an do all the door an window seals an carpet

Welcome! The paint looks really good the way it sits now. California trucks tend to look really nice.

thanks guys, paint definitely isnt bad. few bubbles here an there that will need to be taken care of eventually. thinking bout doing a two tone factory dodge gun metal grey on top an possibly black bedliner on the lower body line down. or black top silver bottom.
