    I'm not really on a budget, this is my daily drive and weekend fun, the biggest hobby I've ever had, and I am investing in this truck over this year, I've just bought new steering components as the whole front end shakes now, and it sort of skips from one side to the other if you go round a left then a right hand bend....so that can't be good, it pulls to the left when driving along, and to the right under braking, so this next few months, it's new steering bits, new shocks, BJ spacers, coil tops a la Surfenvatchfinkelstein, replace the fuel lines at some stage, recently had starter, batteries, water pump, rocker cover gasket and cam belt & tensioner, next thing is new injectors, fuel pump, oil pump and get the valve clearances checked and adjusted accordingly....

    It's my big blue dream machine, and I am going to make sure it's the dangling parts of the dog!

        Wasn't me guv'nor.....I don't think it was anyway....

        I've been happy with ProComp, but they have taken a severe beating lately, and £35 a corner doesn't last too long....so could do with somethign a little more robust...

          mate i could do with new ranchos at some point but works out pricey with the P&P. if you do order from the states i might be able to come in on it if I can afford new shocks anytime soon...

            I just bought a whole procomp ES9000 set up +3" and LC springs with uprated steering damper, my budget with 33's and new wheels plus manual hubs wouldn't go much further, hope I enjoy the fun for at least a year.
            I'm fitting balljoint spacers too, stop the bouncy torsion bar effect.

            pics to follow.

              Rancho

              And where can I get them from????
