Ryan04's Build Thread

[Jabberjaw]

ya its complete bolt on that goes on the existing bolts. i also had to cut off the lower crossmember below the radiator. the one that has the tow hooks attached to. here are some of [MENTION=84322]Happysmiley[/MENTION]s pics when he built it

Awesome bumper concept.

This thread gives me <s>wood</s> positive thoughts for what I can do with my 2WD.

If there isn't one already, we should start a 2WD Club thread.

Yes! It needs to be done

Awesome bumper concept.

It really is! The attention to detail is pristine

So, I did a Google search and there was a 2WD SoCal thread that died back in 2010. I've resurrected it. :biggrin2: LINK

We could also do a 2WD thread with pics and build info for just 2WD's.

Not a bad idea I'm in... :rapture:

[MENTION=102068]Ryan04[/MENTION] - did you completely remove your fender liners?

I just installed the OME kit in my 2WD V8 2004 Sport and have some very slight rubbing at full-lock and I fear that there will be some more when compressed. I want to do the more common "relocation" of the liners, but they don't appear to look like what anyone else's liner and doesn't really relocate well. I was gonna trim up a bit but then I was thinking that these are a bit unnecessary here in AZ (or at a minimum, I can trim up the bottom 1/3 of the front portion and "snip the tip" of the bumper.

Agreed! I actually made a thread about his bumper to find who had made the original.

 

[YetiX]

Third on that. No way I want to run a heavy ass bumper on my 2WD, but yours is perfect for a Pre-Runner. I definitely want one.

 

[NuclearN8]

4th in line

 

[Troymclure]

I can make a bumper like that. If anyone is interested, shoot me a PM.

Amazing truck! Definitely looking to do something similar with my 2WD. 4WheelParts is having a sale on the same Procomps that you have. Before I pull the trigger, just wanted to see how you like them. Do you have wheel spacers, or is the wheel offset/bs responsible for that great stance?

Haha thanks! the wheels have been great so far. No complaints. The wheels have a little to do with the stance but up front my spindles push the wheels out about 1" per side. The procomp model that I'm running is 7032-7983

Thanks man! Wasn't my first choice, but I couldn't pass up the deal when I saw how good they looked and how much cheaper they were than Methods.
