Pelle047 budget build

[pelle047]

i dont have a whole lot to really post on here but i figured it would be easier to start now than attempt to organize it later. So here we go...

Suspension/tires/exterior:
2.5" front spacer
Fj coils all 4 corners
Spidertrax on front
285/70R17 Bfg Rugged A/T

Engine:
4.7L V8
Volant CAI
Taylor TBS
Single exit Flowmaster 40
(gained a solid 1hp...maybe)

Audio:
Pioneer FH-X700BT head unit
Pioneer GM-3100T amp
Kicker C10 4ohm sub

Misc:

Tint 15% all around 30% Windshield
Complete LED interior swap
Black Tails
Some bomb ass stickers that netted me about 10hp each
Rolla roof rack
Projector Halo headlights



Current:

The day i got her (october 2012)

she was a one owner and garage kept 05 SR5 V8. Love at first sight.




I will never own a car that isnt tinted, second day i had her...

15% all around and 30% on the windshield



I hated the chrome, A LOT!!

I discovered plasti dip

Starting to pick up the blacked out theme i continued on with the fog lights and some left over film.

Soon christmas came and i had mom and dads wallet. so i asked for some new toys

(its a horrible picture but it was christmas night at 1am)

about a month went by and i hated the lack of sound it was producing so i insatlled a flowmaster 40 series muffler (no picture) and that settled all issues for me.

I had a fellow forum memeber, he is very innactive, GIVE me FJ springs so i gladly installed them immediately. I also purchased a 2.5" spacer.

before

after

after a solid 2 months of telling myself i could handle it i did the BHLM mod. Results couldnt have been better

My most recent "mod" to date is the free set of AT's, no great pictures of those but they are 255/75 r17 goodyear wranglers.


(As she sits today)

light bar

After ordering some lights from Gaterose (hanma lights) im saving up for a defiant light bar then mounting them up.


Also, you will hear me mention people on here a lot. i believe credit should be given where it is due.

 

[pelle047]

proof that i actually use it

nor sure how to post a video, sorry for the link

 

[pelle047]

New deck

Ordered a new double din deck from pioneer.


After some searching and help from a few members here i figured out how take my dash apart to install it (easier than you think)

wired up the new harness while at work, the jewelry business is extremely slow this time of year.


and with some moral support from one of my friends i install it. extremely happy with its capabilities and performance it gives to my stock speakers. next up is tackling my sub install.

sub install

Had a free night after work and class was cancelled so i installed my sub. Pioneer 300x2 amp bridged at 4ohms. Kicker c10 at 4ohms. nothing really loud but gives a nice clean sound.

New tail lights

Big thanks to wolverine for the taillights. One step closer to all black. pretty happy with how they look.

[pelle047]

Found a nice looking 1st gen hiding in the parking lot at school today. Got a few awkward stares taking the picture but other people dont understand the brotherhood here.



happen to be a memeber?????

 

[pelle047]

Well I moved to Dallas a few weeks ago and have really started to get my bearings for the area.


Bought some spider trax the other day

Drove up to the top of the garage a d got to work. They are pretty strait forward.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is hub centric

Nice build man!

 

[pelle047]

Nice build man!

i appreciate that very much. i have a set of 285/70/17 bfg rugged terrain in the back of my car. waiting for a payday :banana:

 

[pelle047]

I had a slightly used set of 285/70r17 bfg rugged terrains. I would like to thank everyone who helped me get everything prepped to fit these things. Couldn't be happier.

Found a shop open until midnight in Dallas.

They go old school but they had them mounted and balanced in 15mins!

Took some pictures right after

Cleaned up and fixed the plasti dip

Waiting on the rear lift to be shipped to my place (forgot it in the move) then it'll sit level.

Once that saggy rear gets fixed the rig will look great! Now you are making want to start my own build thread, but it will take FOREVER to bring it up to speed. Maybe weekend project. Nice looking truck though

The birthday presents started rolling in today, gotta love my girl!

After about 10 mins and one possibly shattered knuckle I got the bull bar mounted

 

[4rkram]

Hey man, nice build. I dig the bull bar...have you got a source for that model?

Thanks!
