that was good fishman,
t4life look up spintech mufflers, i just ordered some last week--they are sweet but pricey

and yes im considered a mawl crawler---cause i only wheel in the sand and dont have much time or money to load up the wife and 3 kids!!!!

but it is built right and for that purpose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i would wheel the chit outta that suzu if it was free. I wouldn't buy it though, as for the asian chick not my thing, plus shes really not that good lookin.

yea, I think I fall into the weekend warrrior class.... I wheel between 3-4 times a month at any of the local off-road parks and use her for some ranch work.

btw this thread is hilarious...

If your truck looks like this when you are done wheeling... it's a mall crawler lol

and yes.... thats my truck, and NO it doesn't look like that anymore.

Give me a second to try to justify this monstrosity. My dad was in Iraq for 2 years, and having a red and silver truck I thought it would be cool to dress up this truck I had just bought red,white, and blue and send him pictures of my son with the truck.

My dad had never seen my son or my truck at that time, because i got both after he was gone.
Anyways he liked the pictures and all of the other guys around him like the truck also.

So I left it like that til the welcome home ceremony, and about a month after that I ripped of all the stickers and repainted the truck the way I wanted. It looks like this now. Not a real offfroad rig or anything, but it does what I need it to do.

Thanks... I got the projector headlights because my stock ones weren't bright enough, then I decided I still needed more light.
I had seen those grills in a magazine for like $500 bucks, I grabbed a saw and two cheapo lights from the tractor supply store and did mine for $30.

First time i loaded my truck with rock after i threw the 33's on there i decided i needed to lift it a little. Mine wasn't as cheap but i did an add a leaf in the back and cranked the torsion bars in the front. Got a couple inches outta it for like $75

Actually that picture above is the bed loaded with a little over a ton of rock, getting ready to dump it next to the house there.
