momo.75's '03 Sport 4.7L V8 Build

Before i switched my suspension i could tell my front springs were sagging pretty bad as well. What size tire re you going to?



That's cool. It helps me know where mine is in relation to others. What size tires are you running? Do you have any BL?

I have a 1.25 body lift and 305/70/R16's
 
I keep forgetting to update this thread.

I added a pair of the Black Anodized Aluminum Ricochet LCA Skid plates. I don't really need them, but since my truck is 2WD the LCA Skids help take up some of the dead space down there.

Before


After
 
My driver's side seat has been rocking for a few years now. I had taken my truck to the dealership for them to fix and after getting the run-around they told me my seat frame was broken. They said it would be around $850 for a new frame and around $350 for labor. I just decided to live with it. A couple of other guys had recently posted about the same issue and that they were able to weld the bar back together. Last weekend i pulled my seat out and found the broken cross piece. Luckily a buddy of mine has a welder and we were able to fix it. No more rocking seat. I don't have a pic after it was welded but here is the broken bar.

 
Installed my Light Racing UCA's today. Separating the ball joint on the passenger side was a MF! The driver side might have taken 15 minutes. Thanks to guys that posted tips. I was able to do my driver's side without having to do anything to the battery. From the little bit i have driven since finishing them i think i can tell a difference in the right quality, for the better.

 
looks like you were lucky to not tear the side flaps. Mine tore and i just never replaced them. Looks good!
 
Love the truck. Exactly they same as mine. Toyota really nailed it with the black and silver. Just like my 79 Formula Firebird.

Both of them on the passenger side are ripped. I might replace them with factory flaps or i might make some out of something.

I love my truck.
 
im at 35" in the front 37" in the rear. Granted my tires are fairly run down, i am on 17s and 265/70 tires with Daystar.

I originally noticed when someone just posted new daystar pics and looks a lot higher than me. I guess my springs are sagging that bad.

I just installed my day star 2.5/1.5 and I now measure at 37.5 front, 39 rear. On half worn out 265-70-17....04 sport edition
 
LOL.....that is cool. I have thought about getting momo on my tag, but i am not a personalized tag person.
 
That will be cool. Now that i think about it, it might be cool to have momo on the Barbers Motorsports Tag

I'm glad I ran across this. Tomorrow I'll be installing my 1/2" BL that I ordered from another member. I'm going to take before and after measurements and pictures to see where I'm at. It's nice have some comparisions. Right now I'm running 265/70-17's.
 
I finally sold my 265/65 18 BFG Rugged Terrain's and went with the 285/65 18 BFG A/T KO's. The Rugged Terrain's are really good tires but I just wanted a tire with a little more meat on it, but not an M/T. The KO's are great. They are a little heavier but with the V8 it is a non issue. The are much more quiet than I had anticipated as well. I did have to remove the front flaps, but other than that I haven't had any rubbing. On to some pics...













 
sits real high now! Looks great!

Thanks man. It is odd. The tires are barely taller than my others but it does look much taller now. I guess the width of the tires, as well as the aggressive tread, make it look taller. I really like the look now. Now if I could get this pinched nerve issue taken care of I could give it a proper detailing...

It's a monster goin down the highway, a shiny, momo Method-Rollin monster!

Morris, that last black and white looks like profile pic material to me.

I was working on my new avatar but my back was killing me, so I got in bed. You coming back tomorrow? Give me a shout when you do
 
Finally had a little time to do some little mods.

First one was upgrading my reverse lights. I had seen a couple of people talking about switching to an LED bulb for the reverse and didn't really think it would make a big difference.....I was very wrong. I contacted Whitebeauty and he hooked me up with some 9.5w led's. They have a direct beam shooting directly back, as well as led's on the sides to throw light into the reflectors. I could not be happier with the results. If you need some more light in reverse, contact Whitebeauty. Thanks man!

Quality bulbs!
