TNT Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 I like 30's :P also has any one else painted with duplicolor paint how many quarts will i need how does it turn out 31" tires can fit without a lift. I have run 33x10.50" without a lift with proper fender work... I started with 30" tires, sold them and bought 33x10.50's but the wife didn't like them because it was he daily driver and they rubbed hard on the control arms... So I bought some 31's for her, spaced her steering stops. Since I still had the 33" tires I bought another Jeep for me to put the tires on. I bought some 15x"7" black rims with 4" of backspacing to eliminate the rubbing the 33" tires had.

fatcat0491 Posted May 21, 2008 Author Posted May 21, 2008 Thanks. Damned paint My friend gave it to me and i know he spent like 200 Bucks for the gallon :cry: But all thats really left is to run the wire for my whip Get 235s And then Redo the door skins :) and get it officially maine inspected.
DerekKim Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 Wow that looks great! I really like the polyester Wal Mart head liner. Definitely an inexpensive way to go and it should hold up quite nicely. Just a suggestion. You may want to paint the handle to the tail gate black? It might look a little more matchy matchy with the black on the bottom side. You may like it better green. Just throwing out an idea.
Geonovast Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 Uhh its going to be cherry red and have a cherry bomb decal some were on it... Paint looks nice! But I'm confused...

fatcat0491 Posted June 3, 2008 Author Posted June 3, 2008 So My friend that painted my truck had a set of Hood Scoops sitting around, so i asked him how much he wanted for them and he said Nothing... so I took them home last night sanded then painted them with rustoleum Semi Gloss , 6 Coats. Then today I Put them on after helping him put in his "new" garden. Lets put it this way I'm pretty stoked and they make my truck look about 100% diffrent don't Mind the Finger Prints Uhhh i just put them on when it Rained...

Car RamRod Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 I dig the truck and your progress, but the scoops...... not so much. But hey, you like them and that's what matters.
SuperWade2 Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 I acutally really like the scoops... wouldn't do them on mine, but I think they look pretty sweet on your rig! Sw2
