Stell4R's Blue Pearl Build (really its for maintenance)

[stell4r]

I like the TRD Taco wheels. If you ever want something different they look great painted graphite, that's what I've got now.

I'll have to check it out! I definitely want darker especially since I plan to paint my new bumpers black. Thanks!

New (to me) suspension

So I picked up some OME Shocks and coils both front and rear which should compliment the extra weight of the front and rear steel bumpers with a winch and tire swing out respectively.

Well I kept regretting taking the stock 5 spoke wheels off my truck so I was able to pick up a few sets for dirt cheap and decided to get them mounted with the tires.



Since I had an extra few I took the spare off and mounted it on one in prep for my tire swing out which will hopefully happen next month.



While I was doing it I figured I'd take off the hitch since I won't be using it and it'll need to come off anyway. Love the look without it.



Here it is as it sits now:

Well I got the lift installed last night and I am definitely loving the look of it. I'm heading to get an alignment later today which it needs but cant wait to take it out.

There parts were:

• OME 60028 Rear Shocks
• OME 891 Rear Coils
• OME 90004 Front Shocks
• OME 883 Front Coils

After (current):

New Endlinks and UCA's

Well a couple more updates. Picked up some endlinks from MStudt and some used Total Chaos UCA's from jakessti.

Going to be getting my bumpers and sliders welded up this weekend so these will probably wait til after then to get installed but heres a few pictures:

I am so glad I found this thread. My wife thinks I change wheels a lot so I can just show her this.

Haha yeah, ive gone through a pretty good amount. Most of it was to flip and fund other projects.

 

[stell4r]

Well ive had a few updates that I havent posted. I got my front, rear and sliders welded and installed. The rear still needs to be ground so it looks better but is fully functional.



I also installed the [MENTION=98153]MStudt[/MENTION] endlinks and Total Chaos UCA's and got it all aligned. Rides and steers great now. Just got back from a trip to Lake Chelan with the family.



Next up to prep for a Overland Bound trip at the beginning of august will be:

• Replace drivers side axle (boot ripped after lift)
• Flush brake fluid (hopefully help squishy brakes)
• Change Rear Diff Fluid
• Install winch (need to drill holes and wire to battery)

 

[stell4r]

Well should be installing the axle, changing rear diff fluid and hopefully getting the winch ready to go in. Having some fitment issues so I think im gonna move the solenoid plug to come through the top.

You should change front & rear diff, transfer case & trans fluid while your under there & have the pump out.
