Default Summer DIY projects

With summer coming up, its time to spend some good time with our trucks. So i thought i'd start a thread for some DIY project ideas for those of us looking for the next project for our trucks. DIY intakes, mesh grilles, and any other good projects for our trucks

My next DIY project will either be installing my new carpet or getting the pipes for my intercooler bent so I can mount it up!

Spending 600 bucks on tie rods, ball joints, struts and wheel bearings.

The Dodge is being places on the back burner for now since nothing is broke (KNOCK ON WOOD). Going to start working on my 94 Toyota Pickup this summer!

I am not sure yet, maybe a TB......... and a TB Spacer, lol! Honestly though I am not sure... a TB looks good and a viable solution to appeasing the mod bug!
