Greetings. Great forum. Have found answers to all my questions about lifting and tires here. Thanks a lot :thumright:
Might sound strange, but I always wanted a TB since they launch them, so having one now is kind of having the truck of my dreams lol.
I bought a I6 one with broken engine to put a LQ9 I had laying around from an old project that never moved. I was thinking about a SS clone, but I found that's just too boring :lol:

Here I am making it swallow the V8. This is the 1st time I do this... or anything on a car, that's why I left the hood on (noob!):

Currently working on the wiring:

Once rolling, the next thing will be lift kit + fat tires.
If anyone's working on something like this, and have any question, I'll be more than glad to help if I know the answer.
:flex dirty:
