i know they are poor quality pictures, i used my iphone

thats a nice lookin trac.

way to go.

but thats the first time ive seen the rear cab

spolier on the front. doesnt look too bad, but

it would be better if it were flush from end to end

 

[Josh mcleod]

that is not a rear cab spoiler, it is a windshield visor. trust me, you wouldnt want it to be flush, its supposed to have gaps to allow air flow through it, otherwise the dam thing will rip off at highway speed. lund makes these visors. i think it make the st look very sharp. im not fan of all the other "stick on crap" lund makes, ie hood scopes

 

[Art Garcia]

lol

my bad, but it does look sharp though

Looks awesome Josh, I was wondering when you were gonna post some pics. :supercool::haveabeer::banana:

 

[Shaun Tucker]

Dude your ST looks SICK. I love the look of that lift!



And obviously I'm quite partial to your new tires, since I have the same ones (just smaller)!

 

[Josh mcleod]

thanks guys. notice i only dressed the tires on one side, also notice there is only one step bar lol. i was in a rush and havnt decided to put the step bar back on or leave them both on. when i get back to winnipeg from here in montrea:banana:l, im gonna detail it and use a better camera to take some pics.:banana::banana::banana:

 

[Shaun Tucker]

Can't believe I'm actually going to say this, but I really like the look WITH the stepbars.

 

[Josh mcleod]

its such a pain to get in the truck now because of its new found stature. i think im gonna put the other one back on.....:fire:my ol lady said i have to or else!

 

[Jerry Gerner 2]

If I hadn't tossed mine because they were rusted to hell, they'd be on for my wife. I actually like the look with them on too.

 

[Josh mcleod]

if you wanna drive all the way up to canada, id give you mine. lol

 

[Shaun Tucker]

if you wanna drive all the way up to canada, id give you mine. lol

ditto!

 

[Jerry Gerner 2]

Thanks guys, I plan on making rock sliders/ steps eventually.

 

[Josh mcleod]

i wanna get four of those spring loaded steps

 

[James Kerr]

Nice, now you just need some bigger tires and some wheels that have an offset to make the tires stick out a bit. When I put my tires on new rims people didnt believe me that they were the same tires as I had before. Also, please dont put shiny goo on your tires, thank you. :smack:

 

[Josh mcleod]

those are bigger tires. Tires do stick out, i have wheel spacers installed, eventually i will get new rims. these are used tires, with out the "shinny goo", they look horible. you can tell how bad they look in one of my pics and that was right after i washed them :cheeky:

i saw your trac last week on saturday, it was parked in your back lane I'm guesing? looked like it still had the stock tires then.



Where did you get the PA body lift from and who put it in?



looks great. i did a double take when i saw it and wanted to drive by to see if it was still there later

 

[Chris Rice]

I want to do the body lift...did you do it or have it done? How much did it cost to get it done if you did? I love the look of your ST, great job on it!!!!

 

[Josh mcleod]

Did the lift myself and with a lot of help from this site and its members.
