I accelerate to speed bumps... my Titan is a wannabee

Can't wait to have my budget for when I have to upgrade my shocks and what not...

Re: "Prerunner" Titan's

If you get the Glassworks stuff, it pretty much bolts on. I you go with a one-piece like mine, there is a lot of work. Cut your truck up, its only a monthly payment.

Greg, would you be so kind to post some pictures of your one piece fender/hood setup and how you have it mounted please?

a front-clip like yours greg is kickass. the company that makes the glass for the CORR titan sells them too.

Cutting off the bedsides isnt all that bad, I did it 2 weeks after buying a brand new $35K truck. If I rememeber right, it was something like 127 spot welds that had to be drilled out, me and a good friend did it in 12-13 hours and neither one of us had ever dont it with a drill bit before.
Dont let anyone fool you, the Glass that Glassworks put out for the Titan's fit like sh*t. G-machine and I have almost 30 hours on the front glass alone and it still looks like crap.

which is why based off of everyone elses experiences i went with the prerunner fenders from http://ionicdynamics.com/Titanfenders.html
fenders went on easy as pie. it was like taking off the OEM fenders and putting them back on. no trimming, no sanding, no nothing. just bolt and go...

Re: "Prerunner" Titan's

I love the Prerunner titans but here in Ga I have only mud and trees when I lived in SoCal it was amazing. I want the more prerunner style but I just wish I could put it to use here in the southeast.

nice titan Peel!! its not just style. everyone could benefit from 12-14" of suspension travel versus the stock meager 9" of travel. you'd be able to go faster thru trails with the added travel so its not just relegated to us Southwest folk.

i think these are the fenders i'm gonna end up going with too, the front clip from greg's truck would be awesome, but i just can't justify buying that for my truck right now, i think pulled bedsides are probably in line down the road as well

Re: "Prerunner" Titan's

You dont need dunes, this is down the street form my place and used to be all orange groves. Went out to shoot a few pics for the new website yesterday. Had our shipping mgr. taking phots, he's much better at shipping. Here are a couple. the roost pics didnt turn out very good, and the CHP told us we had to leave (from a different place), The Xterra even got some "love". The Titan is going in for surgery very soon, Will have longer shocks (4" more wheel travel in front) and be caged and linked (about 24" travel in the rear). No bumpstops right now and to go 3+ feet higher off this hit, I would like them. Also, keep in mind that this is my daily driver/shop truck that carries everything from lift parts to sheets of plywood. 70k+ miles and many more to come.
