What part of TN you from?  I'm originally from Paris.  God I miss Kentucky lake so bad.  They have nothing but little ponds for lakes out here.

BTW.  Welcome to the org.

I used to have a 90 hardbody.  I miss that truck.  First mod I did to it was take the front vents out, and build a custom Ram-air.  Boy could that thing haul after that.

I think I still have a pic. 

That was right before I traded it in.  I took the Ram air out because I was going to bring it up here to SD with me.  But I fried the 2nd computer in it, and just didn't have the money.  I think the Ram-air got trashed after that. 

And yes, those are Mazda rims that I had the center trimmed to fit.  I can't remember what all I did to that truck.  I know I lowered it, but raised it back up.  I wanted to cut a T-top, and redo the paint.  Plus get the Erebuni kit for it.  I miss my old baby

That truck is sweet dude sux you got rid of it. I didnt know the mazda rims had to be machined to fit. I got the chevy z71 wheels and they have a 3 inch hole so i had them machine to 4" holes.

BTW What kinda motor was in that truck and if it was a z24 did it have any other mods to it besides the ram air.

I can't remember what all I did. 

It was lowered, but raised it back up.  2.25" piping on the exhaust.  Multiple repaintings (me and friends would get really bored)  note front vents

We cut the bed side walls, and extended the bed floor to meet the edge.   That was a long pointless process, but we had fun.  (luckily the Vo-tech hooked me up on repainting the bed)  Dropped like 5-15 lbs of weight on the rear end.  LOL.  like I said, pointless

The rims had to be machined twice actually.  Turns out the front hubs are slight larger than the rear.  So they turned the rims once, test fitted and found that out.  And turned them again (Christmas present from my parents)\

I did have a topper that looked awesome.  But that went onto my parent's Toyota PU when I traded it in.
