My other ride

TRDeity · 08-20-2007, 10:48 AM

Looks great

.

Manofs · 08-20-2007, 11:05 AM

sun roof, on an access cab?? how is the going to work with the light, is that going to be taken out. what kind of sunroof are you putting in because i have been thinking of the same idea.....what is the price range for entire install??

Snickrz · 08-20-2007, 11:08 AM

Looks great! Please post pics inside and out of the sunroof. I have been wanting to see a sunroof in a Taco for some time now due to having one in my Tundra and wanting one in a Taco.

TJOPILOT · 08-20-2007, 11:27 AM

Thanks TRDiety! It is going to be a Webasto pop up sunroof. The roof is $400 and the liner is $100. $500 total and this guy does it right. He even reinforces the roof. I think the light gets moved further back in the cab. He is putting a 20" sunroof in. I'm really looking forward to having it done. I'll take a lot of pics for you guys!

nd · 08-20-2007, 11:44 AM

TJO, i love the Taco but i have to admit i like your second ride better... that is badass as hell!!!

TJOPILOT · 08-20-2007, 11:45 AM

Thanks. Its fast as hell too!!!!! 30 knots!

nd · 08-20-2007, 12:04 PM

I have no idea how knots compare to mph but i'd love to get on taht thing. It looks like it should be cruising down a river in vietnam shootin' a 50 cal. into the brush

reid · 08-20-2007, 12:17 PM

Do you notice any rubbing with the tires?

Looks great!

TJOPILOT · 08-20-2007, 01:22 PM

I did the normal amount of cutting with a Dremmel but I still rub a little when hard over going into my driveway. I'll have to do a little more cutting I guess. The Ivan's have 4.5 backspacing. Thanks.

About 35 mph (1.15 mph per knot).

nd · 08-20-2007, 01:50 PM

yeah, that is pretty fast for a boat that size. come up to the SC coast and pick me up TJO, we can go fishing/drinking/shooting at fish with shotguns...

TJOPILOT · 08-20-2007, 01:55 PM

LMFAO!!!! Don't I wish. If the ships stop coming in I'll sneak down the coast and we'll go fishing!!! Beers on you!

Snickrz · 08-20-2007, 02:28 PM

I checked out the Webasto sunroofs and they have a pic of a Tacoma with one of thier roofs. It is not really that detailed, so I am really excited to see how your sunroof turns out.

Deal, i'll buy as much of whatever kind you want. What exactly is it that you do?

reid · 08-20-2007, 02:52 PM

has anyone ever used an aftermarket sun roof. I like the idea, but keep thinking of all of the aftermarket T-tops that I have heard about leaking.

Snickrz · 08-20-2007, 03:09 PM

My father had a 1995 Cadillac Eldorado and then a 2001 Eldo. The 1995 had a factory roof and the 2001 had an ASC aftermarket sunroof. The only difference I recall was the aftermarket switch for it in the headliner. No leaks, no issues!

I will say that I am really scared to have someone take a saw to my car. If I were to get a roof in my truck (and I really would like to have one), I would call the local Lincoln, Cadillac, Chrysler dealer and ask who does theirs. Most foreign upscale cars come with sunroofs, so it is mainly the American car companies who have a lot of aftermarket roofs done.

rick · 08-20-2007, 03:20 PM

very nice pilot. those are are rims i want. where did you get them? thanx

dirthawker1313 · 08-20-2007, 03:55 PM

i love the p-40 tiger shark teeth on the boat..nice touch

TJOPILOT · 08-20-2007, 08:26 PM

Ok guys, here goes:

Snickrz- after holiday weekend I will be sending you great pics of install

ndcouch-that would be Coors Light buddy! Only when I am not Piloting ships up and down the Delaware River.

rick-I lucked out and swapped Taco5 my original alloys & BFGs for his awesome Ivans&Yoko's! He's trading his truck in and I am literally stripping it down. TRD Cat Back exhaust is next!

dirthawker-That is a trademark paint job on all our launches on the Delaware. Think it would look good on my truck too?

Thanks for all the positive comments guys. Its taken me a long time and a lot of trading and luck to get my baby where it is!
