Bocsy44's taco addiction build

aha I got it now thanks

 

sorry dude, I'm still touching it up haha its quite the burden to sift through all the posts at the beginning, I would like it to look more like @ChadsPride first page. nice clean smaller photos, each mod grouped together nicely haha ill get there eventually but I don't have any photo editing software on my computer at the moment

 

hahahah it looks worse then it was, I wanted to move some switches around to have my lights side by side, it also gave me the opportunity to wire the switch illumination to the dimmer circuit switch. and gave me a little more room to wire in my back up camera to the head unit haha as far as the aux fuse panel, I like it. some things are hot and some are thru relays, my OBA is hot all the time but my flush mounts are relayed, I just like it because it cleans it up a bit and I don't have a bunch of wires attached directly to the battery terminals. a bonus is that I wont have in line fuses all over the place haha but to be honest, it was more for something to do

 

Lol after I saw your first post I made a clean up on mine and thought I don't have much to say haha! I'll make it better with time i guess

Good to know for the fuse pannel. It is something that interest me. I have to make a drawing of what I need to wire in my truck... without drawing I have difficulites to figure out what I want to do lol! Also need to order switches lol

 

Yeah it was kinda confusing lol!

 

Looks fine to me. I'm glad you did one

 

Thanks man! much appreciated

 

Well whie you have the wheels broken down how about some bigger tires? You can fit 255/85/ 16's or 255/80/17's depeding of course on wheel diameter. They'ii fit stock from everything I've read. Then we can look at susension he he

 

If my tires weren't pretty much brand new I would consider it but I just got them last November. I stuck with stock tire size, 265/65/17 because at the time I didn't know any better. ended up getting KO2's but I would like to up the tire size one day haha I need to get it lifted first tho and that's a whole other story so don't even get me started on suspension! my wants don't fit my budget at this point. Lets just say I have expensive taste.

 

Oh I understand champagne taste and a water wallet very well.

 

yes sir, exactly haha I like to fantasize about having the best haha i've priced out a lot of different set ups. The main thing holding me back is the fact that once I'm lifted I'm going to want rims and tires too haha it adds up all too quickly and the truck isn't even paid off yet. cant justify dropping that kind of coin when I could put it towards truck payments. plus I'm trying to save for a house too. being responsible sucks some times hahaha plus between getting the truck buffed/polished, PC the rims and the homertaco grill ill be getting later this year ive hit my MOD quota for the year

 

A year mod quota is a legend... I think members here never reached it... it is like a rainbow, the more close you come the further it seems to be!

 

RIM UPDATE:

For those who may not know, on July 17th I put my truck up on jack stands and took the wheels/tires off to get them powder coated.

July 21st - My buddy informed me he had given the rims to RLD Industries to get them done.

July 26th - I inquired about the rims and my buddy told me they were really busy and that they would be ready soon.

Aug 2nd - Buddy tells me that he managed to save the TPMS's and my rims were getting sand blasted.

Aug 8th - On my way to work, I get a call from RLD. He says my buddy had just dropped off my rims and that 2 of the sensors are will need to be replaced. So finally today, 3 WEEKS without my truck, my buddy finally gives them my rims and that they are finally getting worked on!! I had to buy new TPMS's and figured, might as well buy 4!

This whole ordeal is ridiculous haha by the time I pay for the powder coating, new TPMS, new lug nuts, I could have just bough brand new rims lol and on top of all this, I wanted them to be Matte Jet Black, but apparently due to how badly the rims were pitted, RDL does not recommend going matte so I'm probably going to end up with gloss black rims lol the only up side is that they are going to color match the centre caps to the rims so that saves me buying new ones. Though I may still buy some black TRD ones.

 

It sucks about the tpms, but now you will have a "new" set of wheels! No more corrosion and no fail from semsors! And black lug nuts!

 

yeah it will be worth it in the end, hopefully no more air leaks too! hahaha my sensors weren't broken tho, but had to be removed for sand blasting and 2 of them broke cuz they were old n what not. oh well, it is what it is. they weren't as expensive as I thought, 45$ each from the dealer plus 14$ each for the mounting hardware. so all together was about 250$

 

250$! I would have put a piece of electrical tape over that tpms light and forgot about it! But I am cheap af too! I am still rolling with my broken rain guard... not really proud of me... but i am cheap

 

nothing wrong with not wasting money haha my ocd would not let me just put tape on it. also, I want the tpms so I know if the leaks are fixed haha yeah yeah I know I could check with a pressure gauge but, I dunno, I like things to be perfect, or as close to it as possible lol truck came with tpms so it would bug me knowing I don't have them lol

 

I know what you mean! I might have talked too fast haha when I put my winter wheels on the light drives me nuts. And tpms saved me once when I came back from a trail, light was on, and a nail was in the tire too! Plugged it before any more damage. It is a great thing to have them!

 

a little sneak peak!!

 

oooooh very pretty now what tires are you putting on them?
