RelentlessTaco's build up

RelentlessTaco · 10-15-2009, 11:44 PM

Heres one more update. I built this box for my 10" Type-R Alpine sub but never got around to carpeting it. So here it is all carpeted finally! Not bad for my first time doing carpet like this, especially considering all the complex angles and shit that the box has!(sorry for the low-res iPhone pics)

RelentlessTaco · 10-15-2009, 11:47 PM

I also managed to get in on the HID headlight and AllPro plate bumper group buys so stay tuned for pics of those on the truck!

Excellent work as always Eric!!

How did you wire up the winch ?

Motive · 10-16-2009, 04:56 PM

Actually, I have some cables that have gator clamps on one end(like jumper cables), and the winch quick plug on the other end. It allows me to use the winch front or back via receiver hitch, or even on someone elses truck if it were necessary since it isnt hard wired to my truck. I have it in my plan to make some permanent leads wired to the front and back of the truck to power the winch though because theres a bit of power loss with that setup and so I dont have to unpack the power cable every time I need the winch

Thanks guys. If I have time at some point, I could definately build some for ya. Not sure what I'd have to charge for em though. Any ideas what you think they'd be worth?

RelentlessTaco · 10-27-2009, 07:44 PM

Well, since the OME885's I got ended up saggin about an inch, my truck only sat a 2.25" lift with the OME top spacer and that wasnt high enough compared to the rear of my truck. So, today I finally remedied it until I can afford some adjustable Coil overs. What I came up with was taking the 3" lift billet aluminum top plate spacers from my old lift, and machining them down to give around 1.25-1.5" of lift and swapping them with the 1/2" OME spacers. Turned out pretty good, though maybe just a tad too high(sittin at about 3.25-3.5" lift without the winch on). Looks awesome though.

Here is a pic showing the comparison of the strut with the OME spacer, and then the other with my custom spacer on top.

This pic shows the size of the custom spacer compared to the 2 toytec's stacked. About the same, maybe an 1/8th inch larger.

Heres a before pic in front of the house:

Heres the after pics in front of the house:

Now I just need to get it realigned at les schwabs. Got an appt set up for friday morning.
