    Thanks! We got it running. The ECU has not been tuned yet and the boost controller is not hooked up yet.

    I really want a first gen seeing all these awesome ones pop up lately. Maybe I'm just tired of looking at my front end lol.

    This truck still amazes me. I love the wheel combo. I need to figure out how low of an offset I can fit on mine. Those wheels very well may end up on my truck some day lol. How's the ride with the 35 series front tire?

    Stupid dislexia lol. You have a 235/45/17 front. Not a 245/35/17 haha. I run 205/40/17s up front without any issues. I was always skeptical of small sidewalls on low trucks.

    And did you narrow the engine crossmember? It kinda looks like a weld down the center. If you can get a measurement for me sometime it would help. What's your front wheel mount face to LCA inner pivot? Wanna compare it to stock to see if that's how the -10s for so well. Could just be those first gen fender lips lol

    Hello,

    Yes. We narrowed the front 2 1/2" and the rear is around 4". The truck will be out at JCCS tomorrow in the Mackin / Rays wheels booth. We added a few of new things.

    Take Care,

    Scott

    Hello,

    It's been awhile. I decided to start documenting the build so we made a website. It's still in the beginning stages of the truck. Hopefully the site will be brought up to present day soon. If you guys want to check it out.

    www. ridiqulux.com

    Hopefully you will like it.

    Thanks,

    Scott
