Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
Shes got a 350 TBI, 700r4 trans and a 14 bolt open differential rear end. 249k miles on the odometer. I know I wont be able to sell it for what I've put in it, so I plan to drive it untill the wheels fall off, and then put them back on and keep going.

Engine/Drivetrain Modifications:
K&N filter. True dual straight pipe exhaust with glass packs and 45* tips. Chrome Sunpro tach, engine temp guage, and oil pressure guage.

Suspension Modifications:
None

Wheels/Tires Modifications:
245/75R16. Dynatrail Streets in the front, BFG Rugget Trail A/Ts in the back.

Interior/Exterior Modifications:
Currently referbishing all the sun damaged interior pannels. Very loud stereo. Chrome Brush guard w/ Baja fog lights, Chrome tool box, 2-102" staneless whips. Police siren/strobes. Air horn.

Future Modifications:
Bucket seats and more stereo stuff are known future interior modds.
For the engine, I plan on replacing the spark wires, rotar and cap, valve cover gaskets, new oil pan gasket and rear main seal.
I also plan on installing new Chrome Sunpro volt/amp guage, vagume guage, and mabey a fuel/air mix guage, havent decided yet.
Transmition is going to receve a trans temp guage in the near future and mabye a cooler in the future.
As far as suspention gose, just some new good quality shocks are all that is needed.
I also plan on installing a set of posi gears in the current 14 bolt open diff. rear end.
The rest is what it is and will happen when it happens. Read more ยป
