Topic: 87 SAS build up- new rig

[87hillbillyoter]

hey yall i thought id start one thread of my whole truck instead of starting new ones everytime i did something to it lol. Its gonna be slow, hinging on money as always. the plans for it are sas, 5.29s with ARBs f/r, 35s maybe 37s, it will be a DD so well just have to see. anyways- here she is.
 
about a week after i bought it, i painted the rims black. oh and this was also with a newer door and fender because the PO flopped it about 3 weeks before i bought it.
 these pics were taken about a month after i got it.


interiors real clean

low miles

 

 
had a huge exhaust leak and barely any muffler so i took it to a shop and they threw a flowmaster 40 on.

then i decided i didnt like the look of the black on black, so i painted it red and black.







then i painted this stupid thing on the back which lasted for about a week lol

[87hillbillyoter [OP]]

so i drove it like that for a while. then my brother said he had some 33s he was giving away. only 2 matched, but i was like hell yea! i really didnt like the look of a 4 inch lift with 31s. so i bought some procomp rockcrawler rims and slapped em on.

then i got a thorley header and some toys. i hooked a PA system up to my cb and i also got one of these



compressor and tank in temporary location:

Nice truck. I'm diggin that longbed

[mikeaguirre922]

you need a new bed and your yota will look good!

[91 ex-cab]

I say bob it or leave it and run the  out of it. I just like the way bobbed beds look,especially on single cabs. But some people like the longbed for putting all your stuff in.

[ninja turtle]

haha yea i know its kind of got some weird dents, i dont know though. maybe the bed landed on a rock or something and was keepin the other parts of the truck from hitting or somethin. and no i dont rodeo i wish i did, just dont have the time. my buddies put that sticiker on there haha and i said whatever ill keep it on there haha

[punchyyoter85]

[87hillbillyoter [OP]]
