Thanks sir. The pictures don't really do it justice, the wheels look 20 times better in person.

Yep, I hear you! Men/women - we just don't think alike, do we? My wife told me about a book, "Men are Like Waffles, Women are Like Spaghetti!" Right, now, step 1. Fix up truck... That's all, I'm done.

Pretty productive weekend. Finally nice enough out to have the windows down and I couldn't handle not hearing my exhaust anymore. So took the truck to a shop and had my 3 inch SISO system welded up for 100 bucks. They didn't have any stainless steel tips available so for now its just bare pipe, still looks good.



Finally installed the BBK 75mm throttle body too, ive had this since November so I figured it was about time to put it on.


Then I got to have a little fun. Finally convinced my dad to scrap his 96 Bronco, we used my truck to pull it out from an 8 car under ground garage. The bronco had flat tires and locked up axles, not sure if it required 4LOW but it sure made it an easy task.



It was a little bittersweet for me seeing the Bronco stripped and gone, had a TON of memories in this truck, this is the truck I passed my license road test with.


The guys winch was struggling, so we used some white trash ingenuity and had my brother ram the SOB on to the trailer with his 92 Bronco. The neighbors were far from impressed and expressed there concern with our antics ..F THEM

^Thanks man

Shot a quick in cab video with the new exhaust on. Very clean with a nice deep sound. 35mpg - 80ish


EDIT: fixed the video

Hope the house hunting is going or went well, that's very exciting!

When you find time, you should take a video from the outside of your truck so we can hear the exhaust. I really like it but don't want to pull the trigger yet.

Could you post a link to what you got as well?

How much did the throttle body run you and what exactly does it do. Never really knew.
