Blackax's New POS
 
So some of you know that I spent this last weekend driving 1800 miles in three states to pick up an old truck.

First: I have to say fuck New Mexico, every moment we where in that damn state it was snowing. At some points we couldn't see 10 ft in front of the trucks.


Second: The truck Drives great. Yes it has a few problems but for the price and what is done to it then they aren't that big of a deal.

Third: FUCK NEW MEXICO!

The short list of upgrades that she will get.

Isuzu 2.3 cam
Drop in replacement and is better then the aftermarket crap.

Isuzu 92+ 12 bolt rear
Its a 61 wms to wms (up from 59)
They are also coiled so I might build a 3 link for it but i'm not sure yet.
If I don't coil it i'll do a spring over and move to smaller Shackle to level out the truck a little better.

Light bar 4+ lights

New front bumper

New front seats with ARM RESTS

60/40 Split rear bench seat. They fold flat to turn into a bed

roll cage
