Deeezy's Locked Sport Grocery Getter Build

Thanks man. I'm sure you'll like it here. My army buddies that were stationed here with me all loved it. I totally understand why some people don't like it though, probably the same reason why I didn't really enjoy my time at Fort Bragg.

 

Dude I like the 35's with the rings off. Looks sick. Where did you have rubbing? Sorry too lazy to search if you said it somewhere.

 

Yeah, we liked it without the rings too but I need to find little bolts to fill the holes or mud and crap will get stuck in there. I have a small rub on my passenger firewall. Just barely and a hair on one of my cab mounts. I could probably leave it like this as it's really minor but I will be clearancing it again this week. I didn't want to pound my firewall more than it needs to be so I'm doing it a little at a time.

 

Second time massaging firewalls and clearancing the cab mount. Should be fine now. First time welding anything in my life, it'll do. Thanks @xmods.!!!! (your side looks a lot better)

 

As long as it gets the job done lol. You did pretty good

 

Found some pics of my first build (pre-Tacoma days) Had so much fun with this thing!

 

And some good friends helped me cut off the leaf springs and link the Samurai:











Those were the good ole days. Not a care in the world.

 

Dana...you gonna construct some wheel well liners for your mud problems? Wonder if there's an aftermarket solution, so you don't have the issues with mud getting into the body panels and cracks

 

I've been slacking. I meant to try and cut and fit the stock fender liners this week but I've been lazy. Other than that, I need to find some kind of flexible moldable plastic or rubber sheet. I'll really try and work on it this weekend.
It's not really a mud problem, more a problem of me wanting to clean mud from my truck.

 

Wow that Samurai is trick. What size tires were those? I also noticed on your Tacoma you have rubber edge covers on your fenders. Where'd you get those. Im gonna need some too.

 

Awesome. Thanks Rick

 

I asked Dana awhile back...

 

In those pics the Samurai had 31" x 13.5's. After it was linked it had 33's, which look huge on a little Suzuki.

The edge trim is from McMaster Carr. For plastic flare: PN 8507K65
For sheet metal fender: PN 8507K11

The plastic flare is a lot thicker than the sheetmetal. Those two different edging fit perfectly but you need to super glue it on.

 

That's not what I used and is not my pic.lol See my post above^^^^^^^^^

 

Dana...is the edge trim same as in the pic above?

 

I can't remember who the F gave me that pic???

 

I think you got that from Defconbrix because I cut my fenders with a jigsaw.

 

Thanks...I bet you didnt have to air down in the sand with tires that wide and a Zuki that light.

 

Ahhhh... Thanks...
