thanks for the input, i was just thinking getting rid of the stock seats all together and putting like a racing seat type in there with the stock belt or a better harness, but im not sure, ill keep it stock until money and a 2nd car comes along.

For example, I want to build a tool box where the the stock spare-tire is,.
Under the trunk. My current tires donīt fit there, so I wnat to use the space there.

Itīs just another idea.

I was thinking about that but I want to put the zr2 gastank there or like someone else did, i forget who, they put 2 batteries on a rack and covered it and they used it for their lights/etc. but im still not sure.

Anyway took out my rear seats and cleaned it


Also went offroading...now heres the thing, the last major offroad i did i got stuck, but it was wet from two days rain and all mud, but anyhow, i did this last night with no 4hi, all 2wd, i dont have posi, and if your curious 3.42 rear end, i wish i had posi though...sorry that was a rant, but here are the pictures....it was so funnnnn








And that vitamin water bottle, has been their for over a week, and it was still there this morning.



Thanks for looking

Nice looking rig man. What size back spacing are your wheels. And you sig says 2inch lift. Do you just have the torsion bars cranked and shackles with the body lift. I cranked mine up a little but you seem to have a lot more lift up front? Are the maxed out?

Yeah, I have the Tbars cranked all the way and 2in shackles, i'm planning a SAS though. *edit* and yes i have a 2in body lift too



Anyway, got the quadbeam mod done, super easy. For a 98, its just both yellow wires on each low beam light (no stripes on either wire, its just a yellow one) than strip it and bolt it to the core support. Now i just need blue and yellow hids or green and blue hids

Its scary on how close to mine your truck looks. I had a blue one which had been in an accident so I built up my red one I have now. Im looking to crank down my tbars to about an inch or so and put a body lift on to stop the rubbing of the top of my fender but heres a pic of mine. Also just a little tip. I saw the pics of your subs, Turn them around so they are facing the back hatch and it will be a lot louder!

omg you even have a black hood!! are you stalking my truck jk lol

and thanks for the sub tip, is that just bc the sound waves would bounce off the hatch, and not travel until they hit a wall/seat, like they are currently in my truck? *bc when i have the seats up vs down, they are a lot louder.
