    Wuttup guys I'm brand new to trucks.
    Got a 91 reg cab pickup. 138k miles (yeah baby:D)
    The only thing done so far is intake/battery swap, which reminds me I need to buy a coupling so I can get the janky tape job outta there.

    My goals are pretty conservative:
    Intake
    Full exhaust
    3/3 drop
    Paint restore/dent fixes
    Wheels

    If there are any guys within an hour of chula vista i'd love to come help work on your truck and/or get help working on my truck.

    The MAF needs a proper gasket there's a cardboard cutout doubled over next to the stock one. Got rid of some shoddy tape work and got a proper coupling for the 90 tube.


    Gotta go find the thread so I can credit the member who traded me his full exhaust setup. *edit* thx patrickgraven the thing runs sick, just need to set my trucks stance now.

    I think the head is stripped where 2 bolts go in for the headers, I'm not familiar with how to repair it but I haven't searched yet. Not having one side of the headers bolted is causin a little leak but nothing terrible.

    Plans to lower next weekend and paint wheels black until I can grab a set similar to these:
