99 Ext Cab aka "The Brown Noise"

[Justin_614]

My friends around columbus and on OMT have dubbed my truck "The Brown Noise" because of the annoying exhaust and a system that is almost comp worthy as I placed top 5 at the last CCA event here in columbus.

Its been 2 years with the truck now and I have many adventures with it. From a clogged Cat coverter to tossing passengers out of the bed and being put in time out.

March 2006 - Used $5600 of the lot with 78K on it. 2.2L Auto.

August 2006 - First time it was broken into

June 2007 - Wrapped a Pole. Insuranced listed as totaled and would not cover it, so I did it the hard way and took out a loan. $3600

June 2007 - 2 Weeks later I get her back good as new. 3rd door sticks a bit but thats cool.

My truck has came a long way. I would like to thank everyone who has helped me along the way and this site for the drive to continue making it better.

[mreed]

Looking good...hopefully I'll be able to help more soon.

[HankHill]

Your truck has come a long way Justin. I love that last pic you posted. Those cragars look really good too.

[Ron]

Looking good! I like the cragars. I have been seriously considering some new wheels too. I've been rolling on xtremes for a few years now.

I had the extremes but they took away from the over all look. They stood out too much.

[Rinkrat456]

I had the extremes but they took away from the over all look. They stood out too much.I totally agree. They didn't look bad, but they didn't fit the theme.

[xtreme2001]

Great time line of your truck! :thumbsup2

[davo1028]

The pic in front of the Pepsi building is absolutely classic.

[steve]

Your truck is looking good good like always. What's your next move?

I like how my xtremes look but I want to get some chrome 17" MB Motoring vintage wheels like these...

Man, your truck has come a long way. It is always crazy to go back and look at progress pics. It really gives you a sense of accomplishment.

Let's race to see who gets bagged first ;) I am shooting to be bagged sometime in 08.

[Girlwithwheels]

Your truck looks great!
Love the progress pics

Those rims have a nice classic look that looks great on that red Blazer.

[mreed]

Not to jack this thread but I have some of those I would sell.

I was going to put them on my 56 but I decided to go with some Akuza Creepin 20's.

They were on this truck before Drunk Roger lived up to his name.

http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l194/reactivecustoms/Roger.jpg

[Justin_614]

one thing I liked about my extremes was the deep look they gave off. They are going for some powdercoating because I am owed a favor. So they are gonna play around with them. a High Gloss Satin Black might make em look good. The trick will be the center caps.

HOW MUCH :eek:

[mreed]

High Gloss Satin Black

Ha ha!

[mreed]

HOW MUCH :eek:

$900. They have 225/45/17's on them because I thought that 215/40's that are in these pics would be way too small for my 56.

[Justin_614]

Whats the width on em? My cragars are 17x8 and combine that with a 235/45 tire its limited turning.

[mreed]

They're 8" wide. Zero offset. They didn't rub. It may be because I had a 1/4" spacer behind them.

[Justin_614]

So I got another 1 1/2" of drop today. Buddy of mine had a belltech 3/4 coil and block kit, but he totaled his truck so I traded my PS2 and like 20 games for it. I took Mikes design for the blocks tho and remade them so they are a 4" drop and a 5* of pinion angle correction. So I went from a 2" drop coil and 3" block to a 3 and 4. Combine that with the 2/3 drop of spindles and leafs = 6/7 :frustrate

Then I got some tires for that LS1 intake and the LS Block I had ( Honestly had no interest in a V8, was just impulse) They are 215/40/17 General Exlaims (Love em)

[Hicks84s10]

Damn :devil: Shes looking better

[s10tuner86]

i like it, I couldn't slam mine that low though cause of all the potholes and other bulls*@t we have to deal with in maine. I'm thinking that in my town i would have that thing caught on the frame in min jus driving to the gas station. However nice truck man keep up the progress it's looking good.

[Justin_614]

well considering Columbus had a 18" Blizzard... I drive it everyday and hit potholes everyday.

[axcel409]

now that is low. enough said.

[yucrysoez]

Loving the mountain dew height reference xD It's looking very good.

[02whtxblazer]

Sweet. But where I went to school 2+3=5, and 3+3=6. How did you get 6-7?

If I wasn't gonna get a new car in the next few months, I would buy an extended cab second gen......

[steve]

It looks awesome. But, does that ride height kill your drivability? Are speed bumps impossible now?

[Justin_614]

Take the stock tire size compared to new. 225/75/15 - 215/40/17 + Add in Sag you get 6-7.

[Justin_614]

Still rides fine... Less drag so I get a little bit better mileage. Speed bumps are navable... Not fun tho lol... Also I have allready tore the front valance off.

[s10tuner86]

i'm kinda supprized you didn't bag it if you live in that kind of area but it is kinda expensive. idk i've watched these lil cars draggin there frames and what not over speed bumps and what have ya and just have no ambitions in lowering my truck and subjecting it to that abuse without having some sort of height adjustments available just for sake of mentality on my part. It would drive me nuts

That sux about your front valance.

[axcel409]

hey now u can replace it w/a air dam.

[20twinz]

That looks B.A.! I got a buddy with the same drop 6/7 and he loves it! I couldnt ride that low all the time (driveway doesnt permit it) But I love the stance.

Thats the fun part of it... Its having the balls to drop it so low and just take out what ever you come across...

Took this pic for you Justin!

http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l194/reactivecustoms/0419080222.jpg

I had to raise it up just a hair to slide the can under sideways. For somewhat of an example...even though the body looks a mess, I spent a long, looong time dialing in the suspension to perform exactly the way I want. That pic is 1/8" off of the ground @ 5 psi. I have zero wasted bag travel. I ride daily @ 15 psi.

Officially hits the road tomorrow! (unless it rains).

Thanks for slap in the face pics mike lol....

Ripped the rollpan off so ole chromey is back on and I like it. Offsets the Chrome lugs and bearing covers...
It drags a bit pulling into the garage tho lol...

Looks better with the chrome bumper. Keep rockin' it.

[steve]

I don't know Justin... I don't think it fits the flow ofthe truck very well, but than again it is your truck and if you like it, that's all that matters.

[Rob]

It would look even better if you had a chrome front bumper as well.

Yep, 5500

They've been gone since April

wow i cant belive i missed that white 2500 HD duromax. that a hell of a truck i would love to pull that. rims arnt that great. two flashy.

Not mine lol, its my buddy Ant's.

[02whtxblazer]

So what are your plans? You gonna get another S-10? We were supposed to trade, damnit!

[Hicks84s10]

wow just gone like that?

[20twinz]

Well SOB! whats next?

[steve]

Wait i missed something here... When did you sell your truck and what did you get in it's place?

[Ryan]

I think I should start checking the site more often again.

But yah what did you get.

[Justin_614]

Another S10 lol... Its an 01 reg cab, Cando Specialialties Reverse Cantelever 5 link. Air lift Dominatiors in the front and some Re7's in the back. 2.2L 5 Speed with 80K on it. Interior needs some work (Painting some Pieces), and the bed needs some work. But thats why I am selling my truck, because it just sits most of the time and I want something new that I can work on... I will have some pic's up later.

[Evil_SpeedRacer]

The crazy things that happen when you are not paying attention....

Will the new dime be painted in that famous shade of brown? :D

[67Truckin]

Good! At least you didn't leave the family and have a new project to work on. How about some pics? Pleeeeeaaaaassssseeee....

[steve]

Yes I need picks too? How is the custom work that is already done on the truck. It is quality, or do you have to neaten it up a little bit? No hacked crap right?

[Justin_614]

The suspesion work is great. Completely done. The air management needs better placed, that and the bed needs some work. Probly just gonna swap out for a step side. Probly wont be painted Justin brown due to the paint costing so much. Probly gonna go with a dark violet or a burnt orange. Or my dream is hot pink with some 18x9 KMC Rockstars

Thats...:eek:....Pretty sexay....

Right on the frame! Awesome. What does the inside of the bed look like? I hope better than the corners of the bed! Either way, sweet truck! Thats not a whole lot of stuff to button up. I bet the purple would be the shiz. The pink and KMCs....I dunno about that y0....LOLz

I am Evil_Speedracer, and I approve this upgrade :thumbsup5

[97v8s10]

Nice truck. Not diggin the wheels on it though. Send them to me and I'll see how they look on a 1st gen.

[Justin_614]

Dont worry allready got new wheels for it.

http://www.kmcwheels.com/kmc_images/wheels/common/big_images/rockstarblack_big.jpg

[Evil_SpeedRacer]

I was looking at those last night in a google search. They look kinda cool on the whole bunch of big trucks, but didn't see any good shots of low trucks on them. It will be interesting to see how they look. Those other ones you have now would probably look pretty good with a black powdercoat, or better yet black center with a polished lip. What size are you going to use?

Seriously with the pink then?

[20twinz]

Step side box...GREAT idea! Shave 3rd and handles, swap mirrors, black projector headlight/signal combo, throw on the missing vallance, 18 or 20" black wheels with a polished lip, and paint that biznotch burnt orange and oh, oh, oh, sorry. I get carried away sometimes when I see a good thing. :) My mind just wonders with excitment and ideas...lol. Nice ride! Glad to see you kept with the dime sceene. This will be a project i'll enjoy seeing come about.

[axcel409]

ill buy the old rims off of yea.

[s10tuner86]

I'm feeling those rockstars over the chromies, however i feel if your gonna do the truck in hot pink I would though on some graphics. One would not paint thier vehicle bright pink unless they wanted a wild attention grabbing paint job so why not go all out, the truck is deff worthy of going all out besides look at minitrucking magazing jus to name one and all i bet with the hot pink paint and some graphics that truck could nail a cover and or feature in a heartbeat.

[Justin_614]

Honestly its just gonna be pink. No graphics. Dont like graphics.

[Evil_SpeedRacer]

What will be the new truck's name? Here is a pic I saw the other day, not Chev, but relative:
http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff45/eatingorganic/pinktruck.gif

[s10tuner86]

that's cool if ya wanna stick with jus the pink it's your ride anyway so do what you do. I jus see myself if painting a truck pink doing either some graphics or bright orange and green pin stripping. But I deff feel them rims with pink paint good choice on that

[Evil_SpeedRacer]

Sorry, that was not supposed to be so fricken huge! I found a dime in pink, I am done now......

[97v8s10]

Honestly its just gonna be pink. No graphics. Dont like graphics.

That's the way to go. I remember when my daughter wanted me to paint my 97 pink. I would have done it to if I kept it.

[i0kepa]

truck looks friggen badd ass on the ground like that. My rear end use to look EXACTLY like that. I ended up shaving the license plate box off though and doin the lexan window instead when I repainted. Looks real good bro, awesome find.

[20twinz]

What shade of pink? bright, dark?...That things gunna pop for sure! Sweet!

[Justin_614]

50's Cadilac Pink + Trying to locate an old Bel-Air dash bord.

[20twinz]

I can probably find your old 50's cadi paint code for you...pink of course. Give me a day. I have access to 1000's of codes and color chips.

[Evil_SpeedRacer]

Like this?
