So I bought this thing back in November for a winter vehicle. Had to park my mustang and streetbike for the winter, so i picked it up for $900 CDN.
here it was before i bought it:
Now its about what 2 months later and I havent done much considering its been cold, but i did manage to take those god awful running boards off and spray paint a quick coat over it because i couldnt deal with the peeling paint. i found out the 4x4 doesnt work. something to do with the hubs im assuming but im sure as hell not spending $300 just on warn manual hubs, and the transmission is leaking...pretty sure its the torque converter. but meh
and here is the paint. its one coat so im not too worried, im gunna be sanding it all and redoing it in the summer anyway.
Future modifications:
6" lift
35x12.5 tires with 15x8 crager black soft 8's
mtx vehicle specific enclosure
some type of air intake
soa setup in the rear
diamond cut headlights and signals with an 8000k hid kit
new repro chrome grille
and thats about it.
let me know what you think.
