    Hahah. Yeah, there was a vehicle going super slow on the trail and wouldn't pull over to the side. So after he finally did I hauled ass by him and hit this bump. Apparently enough to jump. Lol.

    At this stage is it a feeling of relief or emptiness? When my last Tacoma hit a "complete" stage I ended up selling it a couple weeks later for another one, bone stock:rofl:

    I guess with a turbo the skies the limit though. Been eye balling those LCE forged internals?

    He moved his after cat 02 there? Mine has been good. I idle at 15afr. Boost ranges from 10 to 12 depending on rpm. I need to recalibrate my wide band though. Every couple months needs a quick reset.

    No bugs.....:fingerscrossed:

    Yeah, I'm looking forward to bumpers and sliders. Get a few more things tightened up. Light bar, get my lockers working. It'll be a good few several years with her.

    Its still not relief yet because my rear locker isn't working yet and I need my front one put in. It is exciting though and enjoyable. Especially looking back at all the hard work or when I get a compliment. I hope people on here can enjoy the build and info as well like I did looking at jberry's build and all the great others on here.

    Yours is definitely one of the meanest out there. Not only on paper is it just a monster but your attention to detail throughout the entire build has been uncanny.

    Definitely a build that will be referenced for years to come and let me also take the time to thank you for all the write ups :thumbsup:.

    Have to cut out some of the glass on that rear fender. I couldn't even come close to flexing all the way out without it hitting. Ended up breaking some of the glass but it's easily fixed and mostly where I have to cut anyway.

    I really need to get my rear strapped and my bumps installed. Once I get that done and a few touch ups we'll really get her moving.

    And here I was afraid you were going to baby this thing.

    Is your rear and locked and are you geared?

    So how did you end up doing the return fitting on the oil pan? I recall you saying something about being able to do it while still on. Something about a shop that has done it before..?

    Yeah, ARB with 4.88s. And on the oil pan I had to take it off. Not much room to do anything.
