- Hey, what's goin' on, guys?
Lawson with Custom Offsets.
Today's video, we are--
- With Junior!
You always forget me, every time.
- Yeah, but I was gonna bring you in after. Whatever.
Okay, anyways, today's video,
we're gonna take five different styles of builds--
- With Junior!
Was that when you were gonna bring me in, was right there?
- Sure. We're here with Junior.
- There we go.
What's up, guys? - And we're gonna take
five different styles of builds, and then...
Like they already have wheels, tires, suspension,
and then we gotta pick what mod we think
deserves to be chosen next.
What's kind of maybe not thought about,
but in our eyes, we think like that's what we would do next,
and kinda needs to be done. - So it's all based
on personal opinion?
- Yeah.
(soft hip-hop music)
Yeah, 'cause every build's gonna be a little bit different,
you know what I'm sayin'?
Make it your own.
Before we hop into it,
if you guys need wheels, tires,
suspension, accessories, customoffsets.com.
We're also doin' another giveaway.
You guys wanna find out about that,
it's customoffsets.com/giveaway.
You guys can pick up this t-shirt to get entered,
and see what that giveaway's all about.
Let's hop to it.
- [Narrator] Complete show build.
- What would you do first on a show build,
after your wheels/tires/suspension?
- All right, I already know what I would do.
- What would you do?
- Oh, it'd be specifically audio,
but it'd be like a Wet Sounds sound system.
Just because, especially like in the Bronco,
what I wanna do is have them inside the cab,
and then when you take the top off,
they're basically firing outside of it then.
'Cause, like, I don't know.
I do a lot of driving in my vehicles,
and even though it's a show build,
it'd be something that I wanna be able to enjoy.
And as dope as it is outside of it,
being inside of it and still having good audio
is something that's big to me,
just 'cause I love music.
And so something like that, that's like dual-purpose,
where you have good music inside of it,
you can take the top off,
and like if you're at a show,
just chillin' and stuff like that,
you still have crazy loud music
that you can just like hang out and party to.
That would be what I would do.
- I think I would go with tasteful lighting.
So I think...
There's not a single show build that you see
that doesn't have some sort of tasteful lighting,
especially when you go to these big shows.
Obviously, rock lights is a huge one.
Then, even getting into custom headlights
and custom tail lights.
Like these days--
- [Junior] Oh, you roped it all under lighting.
Damn, that was a smart one.
- [Lawson] Yeah, like these days,
yeah, everyone's buyin' the RECONS,
but then they're also shippin' 'em out
to like Outlaw LED or something like that,
and getting them paint-to-match, and customized,
and everything like that.
And then you've got like your wheel rings,
and everything else.
There's just so much that goes into it,
I think that lighting is a huge one
that I think maybe people wait to do for quite awhile,
where I think that could really spice things up.
- And I feel like it's kinda like what you said,
people wait to do it,
because it's like the cherry on top,
but at the same time,
it's one of those things that like,
sure, you have wheels, tires, and a lift kit,
but when you have like custom headlights,
and rock lights,
like just 16 white rock lights underneath it,
it totally sets it apart,
especially if you've got
like powder-coated suspension pieces
that you're showing off, then it kinda adds a little extra.
It'll be like daytime, nighttime,
whatever it is, "Look at me."
Like, you're forced to look at me.
- Yeah, it definitely changes the overall look,
and I can't even picture my truck at night
without like 16 rock lights on it.
- [Junior] It'd be a black blob
with some purple splooges.
- Yeah, and just like rollin' down the highway.
It's just like, it turns so many more heads.
- Yeah.
It's way more fun.
- [Narrator] Daily driver.
- I'm gonna go with tow mirrors.
- Mm.
Tint.
I have to have tint.
I hate not having tint.
Even if I have it, I want it darker.
Like, my daily has like 20% tint,
and that's nowhere near dark enough.
I need dark tint, especially on a daily driver.
It's just something that, I don't know,
I just like to have, wanna have.
Any vehicle, daily driver or not,
I wanna have dark tint.
But just, if I'm driving every single day,
I wanna have tint.
(ethereal harp music)
Do I make that a song,
like WAP into dark-ass tint? (hip-hop music begins)
- How neat is that?
♪ Yeah, you (beep) with some ♪
♪ Dark-Ass tint ♪
(beep)
That was a good call.
I wish I would've said tint,
but at the same time,
you gotta look at your stance.
Obviously, with the tow mirrors,
and then just overall,
I remember, you know, when you lift your first truck,
you're like-- - You don't even
have tow mirrors.
- I know. - I just realized that.
- Yeah, but I drive trucks with tow mirrors.
And that's literally the next mod on my list.
I want tow mirrors. - There you go!
- I'm gonna get the Boost Auto tow mirrors,
you know what I'm sayin'?
- Boom.
- It's just like, once you hop up in there,
especially when you go even bigger,
or say you're workin' your way up,
sometimes you get into some tight spaces,
and those tow mirrors really help out.
- Well, not gonna lie, as stupid as it sounds,
having tow mirrors, like when I had my Sierra,
the top ones were like my reverse,
like my rear-view mirrors.
And then the bottom ones, I had angled down
so I could see my rear tires,
so when I was backing up and (beep) like that,
I wouldn't curb a goddamn wheel.
And it does help,
'cause you can see (beep) out the sides,
and it just, it does, even if you're not towing,
I never towed with that truck, it does do something.
And they help it look better too, I think, too,
especially like daily driver with like...
I mean, yours, like no offense,
but the little mirrors on it,
like having tow mirrors just helps kinda fill it out,
especially if you have a big, lifted truck,
wide wheels, all of that kinda helps.
I dunno, dual-purpose.
- [Narrator] Off-roading truck.
- Hmm.
You go first this time.
- I just went first last time.
It's your turn.
- No, I went...
Oh, no, you did go first,
but I had a better point.
I think I'm winning.
It's 2-0 right now.
(beep)
I'd probably go like performance tuner,
or something like that,
'cause if you're goin' off-roading
or anything like that, I feel like you probably do...
Sure, you have wheels/tires/suspension,
but you're probably set up,
or like ready to do some other stuff,
whether you have a cold air intake,
this, that, and the other,
then custom exhaust,
or even if you've got like a mild build with the engine,
some bolt-ons, having a performance tuner in there too
is gonna kinda put it over the top,
and kinda get everything that you bolted on
to work to its full potential type of thing.
So that's probably the route I would go.
Yeah, and especially if you have
like a diesel or something too,
then you gotta tune around it.
You've got your economy mode, but you got performance mode
and stuff like that, so kinda depends what you're doing,
and what you're using to off-road,
but that'd probably be what I'd go with.
- I'm kinda torn.
I think I'm gonna stick with bumpers,
just because you're encountering...
You're like over, off on the trails or anything like that,
you're encountering some tight situations,
you want that extra protection.
- [Junior] And there's probably a winch
in that aftermarket bumper, too, potentially.
That's a good one.
- [Lawson] And even some of them
come with like cubes and stuff
that light up at night. - All right, 2-1.
He wins this one.
- So, I mean,
it's just it's super...
It's like a very beneficial add-on.
Yes, bumpers are kind of pricey,
but the protection that you get,
and then the overall--
- The look to it.
Even if you don't care about it 'cause it's off-roading,
it just makes it look more beefy and aggressive.
And there's so much functionality, like you said.
I didn't even think about the lights.
I'm like, "Oh, sure, a winch."
But literally, like light bars, cube lights.
You can have like spotlights and flood lights,
like all of that.
That's a good one.
- [Narrator] Overlander.
- Mm.
Mm, mm, mm, mm.
Mm-hm.
- I'd probably go with a bed setup.
- What does that mean?
- Like, I would totally revamp the bed
with maybe some extra fuel tanks,
or even like the capabilities to have the popup tent--
- [Junior] Damn it!
That was mine, was rooftop tent.
- [Lawson] Doing stuff like that.
Or even like a roof rack on top,
just because, you know, if you go on these long excursions,
you're out in the middle of nowhere,
or you wanna take it for a very long trip,
you'd be able to handle that.
Or, if you just wanna drive 45 minutes with your lady,
and hop up in the tent, you know, in some field, you know.
You never know. - I feel like
that's like every scary movie ever.
- Yeah, yeah.
So I think that's...
I think that'd be a good overland.
I think everyone always thinks
like sure, it'd be sick to have this crazy,
overland, baja, fuckin' like bookin' it across.
- I think overlanding, yeah, is more about like...
You could have literally a leveling kit,
or like a torsion key leveling kit
with some wheels and tires,
and then that whole bed setup you said.
You got extra fuel tanks,
you've got that whole setup
with extra parts that you could need,
the skid pads and everything like that.
And then you've got like your rooftop tent.
You got the whole setup there,
and it's more about making your vehicle into a camper
than it is about like going and rock-crawling.
That's my opinion on it.
- [Narrator] Performance truck.
- Hm.
- You're first this time.
- All right.
So for a performance build,
I would probably go with somethin' like a Stage 4 cam,
aftermarket Trailblazer SS intake,
probably some LS7 lifters.
- [Narrator] 2,000 years later...
- [Junior] Maybe a 3,200 stall torque converter,
backed by a 4L80E transmission.
- I said pick one thing for each category.
- I'd pick a 1993 Bronco with an LS swap in it.
(Junior laughs)
(beep)
I'd go with the cam,
only because one, it's a huge power adder,
but two, when you start that (beep) up,
and all you hear is that wild lope,
that is so sick to me.
- Right.
Oh, man.
I'm gonna go with a tuner.
- You wouldn't do like a supercharger,
or turbo setup,
or anything like that? - I don't think so.
- Really? - No.
- No?
- I mean, we supercharged this thing,
and it's still dog (beep) slow.
- Yeah, but you had an Evo that had a turbo...
Two turbos? One turbo? - What is this?
Fitment Industries?
- No, but you liked that-- - Trucks!
- I thought you would be like, "I love turbos.
I had a car that had a turbo,
so I'll put turbos on my trucks, too."
- I mean, yeah, it's cool.
But I'm not tryin' to blow...
Did you see how I drove my Evo?
I babied it. - Yes.
- I babied that thing.
(Junior mimics engine scream)
(Junior mimics blowoff valve hiss)
(Junior mimics engine scream)
(Junior mimics blowoff valve hiss)
- Okay, well that's when-- (Junior mimics engine scream)
(Junior mimics blowoff valve hiss)
That's when friends are around.
- That's when friends are around,
and there's a blowoff valve on it, and--
- That's a little different,
but overall, I babied that thing
to save it for when the friends were around,
'cause I didn't wanna blow it up.
You can't constantly beat on it.
No, I'd go with a tuner.
There's so many functionalities,
and just you can change so much shift,
so much stuff, and you can just like...
I dunno.
I just think overall, you can pick like an exhaust,
but it's so basic,
or you can pick like-- - I know.
I'm like, an exhaust would be a good thing,
because as much as I love my black Bronco,
I didn't get around to exhaust,
because I sold it before I got to that.
And like, well even your truck.
You don't have an exhaust on it,
and your muffler's really nothing.
Like, it just needs something, I feel like.
I was in the same boat.
- I have the ugliest stock exhaust tip
on my truck currently, so-- (Junior laughs)
- So that's the thing,
is like exhaust is always a good one.
But right, tuners are way cooler,
especially when you have a diesel,
and it's like, "Yeah, so my tuner
just added 200 horsepower, I don't know."
And it's like, must be nice.
- Yeah, exactly.
Brad.
What performance part-- - Not here.
I'm not here.
- Brad's over here
judging us hardcore.
- No, no.
What performance part would you pick?
- If you had a build that had wheels, tires,
and suspension, what performance part are you picking
to add to it?
A turbo, see?
(beep)
- I picked a tuner.
(Junior laughs)
- [Brad] For what?
- No. - Because 5.3.
(Junior laughs) - Yeah.
Dude, I'm not slappin' a turbo on my 5.3.
- Just slappin' the box with the turbo, yeah.
