Tretiak30's LT Taco w/37s

Got my exhaust finally rerouted so the rest of my skids will be going on.

I don't exactly prefer the way my local exhaust shop did this but my shop uses them and I trust them. It works too so I guess we will see in the future.




Also, my ViAir constant duty OBA is in and running. Had two bad pressure switches warrantied.

I will be cleaning up the wiring and putting an in cab switch in for it and get rid of the gauge.

 

how is that tank being held in place?

 

Truck is looking good! Might have to borrow a few of your ideas

 

By magic


No, I drilled holes into the bed and bolted it up

 

Just a quick question, I've been contemplating taking my fender flares off of my 2011 MGM Tacoma and yours is really the first I've seen with them taken off and no custom ones put on. Are you planning to put any custom ones or just leave the holes as is? On your black you can't see the holes that much and that's what I'm worried about with mine, don't want it to look stupid. Opinon(s)?

 

I honestly love the look of the holes.
It is unique lol

There is a few guys on here that plugged the holes and it looks really clean.

 

Do you happen to know what they "plugged" them with? I just really like the stance without the bulky flares.

 

let me find you a link

 

I took them off planning to trim and reinstall them then I just got too lazy and enjoyed the look more and more. Less parts to rip off on the trail. I don't plan to plug them either

You would just have to watch the holes for paint chipping. A few for me did so I touched them up and they look good so far.

I know lots of people think it looks good. That I hear of at least.

@Mademan925 removed his and plugged the fronts with bolts and I think the rears. His truck is white too and it looks great

@ChandlerDOOM removed his too last time I checked.

 

Thanks! Did you just get touch up paint from the dealership?

 

Nope. Just scuffed the surface rust off. Dipped a ear swap in gloss black krylon I had laying around and touched up

Not a bad idea actually. I might do that..

HEY! Did my battery ship yet???

 

i figured you'd know this lol

 

That doesn't answer my question

 

Awesome thanks!

I think these plugs make it look more like the fender flares I hate haha. I'm leaning towards not plugging them or filling them to have a smooth look. Not sure yet, but thanks for the help!

 

I actually talked to him this morning.

They shipped lol.

He just needs to email all those tracking numbers, hopefully tonight.

 

we tried!

 

If you really want to make them smooth and clean, you could take it to a body shop and have them bondo up each hole.

 

Grr. He isn't too far so hopefully it's like a 1 day transit time for me
