Nimble9's very low budget, fresh outta college build!

Score! I picked up an Access Tonneau Cover for $100! In great condition too! With the help of my girlfriend, I installed it today. The torx screws weren't hard to take off, as the previous owner had a cap on the back, and last night I sprayed some PB blaster. Too very little effort to crack them loose!

 

Got my windows tinted! Only another $70 for the sides and windshield strip!

 

Is this where the light for the TPMS is? Previous owner was awesome haha! I just noticed this when I was tucking my scanguage wire.

 

Keeping with the low budget theme, I went ultra low budget for wheels and tires, as in FREE for these wheels and tires. 265/70r17 General grabber AT2 tires with FJ steelies with Rock Rings welded on! Traded @jazon for my stock wheels and tires before he trades his Tacoma in. (Thanks so much!!!) Bought his spacers too for the complete look!

Pics!








I had to remove the front mudflats and do some trimming of the plastic but no rubbing since!!

 

lol.

 

Nice build my friend! I hear ya on the broke college kid thing...I'm in my junior year and it sucks ass.

 

Haha, I'm fresh out and have a great job, but getting an apartment and trying to furnish while paying off debt is making me broke!!! Keep at it though, it's well worth it!!!

 

What school, and what major?

 

Millersville University for Robotics and controls Engineering and Comp Sci minor! How about you??

 

Lewis University for B.S. in physics...and I hate it lmfao.

 

Don't be afraid to change majors! I did! I was an Econ and finance major haha

 

How many years it take you then?

 

Meh an extra year, only because I added a minor haha. I also changed majors my sophmore year too!

 

Found a little off-road action while exploring Centralia!

 

Plasti derped my front grill and bedlinered my rear bumper before the York meet today!

 

Never posted a pic of plasti dipped front grill and lower valence. I think it looks much better over stock!

 

Bought some goodies after finding out I got paid for thanksgiving vacation! @Mobtown Offroad tailgate cap and Blisten 5100 shocks (to level the front)! I would love to buy many more items from Mobtown since they are relatively local, maybe after the truck is paid off because furnishing my first apartment is expensive haha.

 

My x mas gift to myself! Well one of them haha

 

Mobtown Offroad tailgate cap installed! Took 5 minutes and no real effort. Looks great and is a quality product! Pics are after it was on for a week so it's a little dirty.

 

After a painful attempt to install the 5100's (crappy spring compressor couldn't compress spring and jack/ LCA method kept picking the truck up off the jack stands). Thanks @igotalotofrice for sticking through and the headlamp!

I had my shop do install it. After driving to work all week and testing it on local u paved roads I'm very happy with the results. After we move I'm thinking rear 5100's to match.

No more rubbing!

I have no idea what the guy is doing with his roof it's been like that for years.
