Project Blue Ox

Did you find something else already ?

Looks like it. I'm going to check it out on Monday or Tuesday so we'll see what happens.

It left my driveway for the last time today.

Got a new blue ox yesterday.

I'll just keep going from here with this one or a mod can delete everything prior to this if needed.

Anyways, 2005 TRD Off-Road Double Cab with 6-speed manual tranny. 2" spacer and AAL, 265-75-16 ProComp Mud Terrain tires. SnugTop topper, K&N CAI.

Very clean truck, looks like a great replacement. I used to hate that color but it really is growing on me especially with the topper. Not a huge fan of that grill gaurd though. Im sure you will enjoy the extra room. What are the plans?

It had nerf bars on it when I bought it but those came off before it had even cooled off from driving it home. First thing's first, sliders. I need to get my CB mounted in the cab and I have already stuck the Ram mount for the GPS on. I also need to extend the diff breathers.

The only other plan I have right now is to get some money tucked away to replace the brush guard with an ARB bumper. It's got enough lift for me already. It'll need new tires in a few months and I'm thinking either Kevlar M/Ts or Duratracs.

Long term, I'm thinking RTT for sure. I'm sure I can come up with much more stuff along the way, although I kinda want to keep it minimal.

"although I kinda want to keep it minimal. "

how many times have we all said those words? haha

 

[RU55ELL]

Yeah no joke. There is so much cool stuff out now, it's tough to keep it simple.
