Phil's build tread

Bought this truck few months back, truck had 97k miles on it, paid 1800 for it (got one hell of a deal), I just wanted a truck so I could drive everyday and haul my **** around, then I started finding stuff for it so the build begins

So far all I have done to it is Autolite Single Platinum plugs, Accel Wires, Accell Super Coil, soon I hope to have a set of headers, Banks performance intake/exhaust setup, maybe a mild cam, front/rear shocks then wheels/tires

Thanks man, it really needs a set of wheels and tires, maybe a leveling kit or maybe a Lil lift

Was on my way home today from picking up the kids from daycare and the breaks besided they wanted to break lol, so now I have two loud grinding brakes that I need to put up with.. Soon to be changed, the pads are in stock but I had order the rotors, truck is turning into a money pit, but sooner or later it will be problem free for awhile I hope
