First for 1500.00 the tracker. 85,000 miles, little rust, 2 part hardtop.






Its first mod!


Next on list remove tracker stickers on side...

Thanks to a good friendof mine for x-mas this will also be added once I get a new bumper.


Hmmmm they dont fit yet.... but its funny how u see 31's and even tho there a nice size tire they dont seem that big.... but then you see them next to stock.... I'll get alot of lift just out of the tires... lol



Springs are here, soon to be in.....


So today I decided to head out to the garage, turn on some tunes and get started on my lift..... oh wait I dont have a garage but I am a true minnesota man.... here ya go.....

Stock rear spring next to my lift spring


My well vented garage....


rear lift spring is in~~!!


Stock tires back on you can really see I get alot of lift from the springs


Rear view with stock tires on and rear lift in... NO the highlift is not holding it up~!


I need to fab up a rear A-arm spacer still and buy rear shocks! but thats all for now... I am soaking wet and tired!

Well got the front done today....here is pic of the spring in, along with the strut spacer that u cant see.


Lifted product!


Now I need to get shocks for the rear, upper rear a-arm spacer, and toss on my 31x10.5's and she pretty much done for now.

31x10.5's are on.....




Couple small issues with the tires, first as u can see from the rear picture the axle looks shifted to the left, it is a couple inches due to I dont have the rear A-arm spacer and shocks yet.  Back doesnt look like it will rub bad when it flexes, the front will on the front bumper but I will trim that plastic POS.  Might need rear of front fender cut about a inch.... unless I body lift it...  But I do seem to have the same amount if not more Clearance as my sammy did....  seems bigger to me for some reason....

Well got the new shocks in, and my a-arm spacer.  I probally will redo that spacer, just bothers me... I gotta trim the front rear fender alittle, but its driveable as is...

of course I had to get my poser rock out....



oh and yes thats mud on the side of the truck.... you may ask yourself where did he go wheeling.....

WELL IN MY DRIVEWAY!!!


Ok so took off the front bumper today.. going to make a new one....

Took the rear plastic part of the bumper off, will stay this way til I decide what I want to do...

Trimmed the backside of the front fenders, hammered up the lip in there, will still rub when I am turned and flexed... 1-2inch body lift will help....


My friend hooked me up with a scrap metal bumper, from stuff he had laying around... it looks ok, about 75% what I wanted, but for now it will do...
before paint....



After paint...

Those are boondoxmotorsports 4 door 3 inch lift springs in the 2 door, sitting on 31x10.5's  I trimmed the front fenders alittle, but I think a 1-2 body lift will help out...

Ive put at least 1500-2000 miles on road since then, I usually drive it 100 miles highway round trip couple times a week.  other than that its mosty 8mile to town and back... but like I said I havent really wheeled it yet... I want to get the drop brackets and backup CBV shafts first.
