Re: A Little Information
Nice truck!! Is there a body lift on the truck? What brand of headers are those? There are many, including myself wondering about headers that will tuck up inside the frame rails? If you do have it body lifted, maybe that's why the headers fit so nicely.
Anyway, again nice truck!!

Re: A Little Information
No there isnt a body lift on it, springs were retorqued with a few added, i will include many more pictures these pictures are about a month old,i have polished the entire exhaust systems including the headers! it looks fantastic, i believe they are JBA headers we had them setting in the shop, ill have to check the numbers and see which box they came out of.

Re: A Little Information
I'm only missing one screw on the entire truck, im missing the screw that holds the headlight in the bracket, oh and can anyone help me find original headlights for one of these trucks? I know you can find them at every parts store but the alignment "holes" (those little indentions that are in the steel plate behind the headlight) do not line up correctly with the headlight ones, therefore making the headlight crooked, requiring you to level the headlight and just screwing it in tight without lining up the holes.
Thanks for the compliments! |
