Looks like fun, nothing like that over here in the Uk

Congrats Jeff !

Congrats buddy !!!! Slickrock is a leg burner isnt it. Glad I did it first of November. You need to go down to Austin and check out Emma Long city park for me, I hear the trails are awesome. I'm sure the 4wheelin in the hill country is great but I dont know where any places are to go. When I get this new truck raised a little and get these 3.27s out of it I may have to visit for some 2 and 4 wheelin action. I still need to get down to ride Cameron Park, is that as great as I here? I got a genuine gear easy locker for the front of my 91 that I can no longer use if your interested. Yeah Moab 2005, probably in late May. Lets see, do we move the big day up a week or two, or have a 30 truck, 100 friend wheelin bachelor party?
Later David

Great work, any engine Mods? I have a 91 sport that I want to modify and make off road worthy. What do you recommend I start with first? I am new at this and have a poor man pocket so any suggestions that you might have would be good.

Pete,

I too am quite the poor man myself, and budget this project with nickles and dimes.
As for engine mods there really are not any, a conical filter replaces the air box and that's it.
I can't complain about the horse power or torque given to me in stock form, cause I have 3.73's which seem to be pretty good at least till I went to 35's, now I notice a big difference (time for 5.13's or 4.56's), and the other is that I really don't flogg my vehicle like it's a sports car.

What I can tell you though, is that this board right here is the best investment you can bank on!
The $30 I spent here to be a full blown member has paid for it's self thrice fold, the best thing to do is read, read, read and get a great idea of where you want your project to go and how you want to go about it and how much you want to budget for it.

And through this board and some of your local auto part store or salvage yards you can make anything possible.


I have documented more stuff here on the board, if you have the time you may/may not go back through previous post I have made and look them up, there is an automatic to 5spd swap and tow hook install, and sooo much more.

Enjoy and welcome to Serious Explorations!

Nice Navajo. I did the auto to manual swap too on my navajo. Sorry, but your mask is lame.

Quick question- do you like the interior w/o the carpet? I have been thinking of doing that for some time. What did you do with the wires on the drivers side? Do yuo have a mat in the rear?

Thanks,
Kirby

Sorry Kirby,

It was halloween you know how that goes.


As for the no carpet thing, as you prolly noticed I burried the truck in the river so seats, sound deadening, carpet all smelled like rotting arse and had to be removed.

Do I like it? Well I don't have to vacuum it every weekend infact I havent had to clean it period.
As you will notice in the back the rubber floor covering is a bed mat out of a 1992-96' F150 Flareside that no body wanted and I laid in there, it actually keeps the studs for the back seat from poking into my air matress when we go camping.

As for the wires, they just are sitting there like they have been, they don't get in the way nor move around.









Again, THANX EVERYONE for all the great comments
