This is what Betty looked like the day I got her.




This was the first Mod I did. The tech deck from BirdDawg Ind.


Next it was wiring up some bumper lights and a switch under the HVAC controls. I met a cool dude and fellow Tacoma enthusiast in the process @Trident904


So as many as you can relate the mods never end and neither does the lighting. It was under the hood lighting by Antidark.I replaced all the interior lights with Led bulbs. I was hooked.



This how she sits as of 8/24/17

 

Nice Ride Sir! Black is so hard to keep clean! My Harley is Black! Cleaning it is great when the cleaning is DONE! Thats when I like Black! When it's DONE!

 

I hear ya...I actually got her detailed today matter of fact

 

Good looking truck! That first pic is sweet, love that black and white. Those lights up front are nice too!

 

Thanks man much appreciated

 

future Alabamian!

 

Possible We shall see.

 

Well I havn't done any mods lately,but Here are some older pics. This is the bedrack and RTT I picked for $800 cash .What a sweet deal



I had to sandblast the AllPro Rack and give it a new paint job.



Got it all cleaned up and used some VHT roll bar chassis paint what a awesome product.

.

Than I had to fab up a mount for my shovel and axe ordered a new cross bar from

@allpro .
.

Than it was some custom lighting I received as a gift from from Christmas in July
special thanks to @JimBeam




After modding the rack went on a lil camp and wheelin trip.

 

To anybody who cares lol. So I got some bed rails for free. I want to have a bed accessory rails on the outside of the bed rack. I got some flat bar stock from Home Depot and plan on drilling and tapping it to hold the All Pro rack to the truck. Once the flat bar stock is drilled and tapped I will replace The All Pro nut plate I will run a bolt to attach the outside rail to the All Pro rack to the bed rail.More pics to follow

 

This will be interesting, love the idea. Can't wait to see the outcome.

 

Thanks man should be relatively an easy process.

 

I put a RETRAX on my bed cover for security so mine is set. I've been toying with selling it and getting a cap though or going a different direction all together.

 

Right on man I had a topper but sold to buy the AllPro rack and the RTT

 

Ok so I tapped a piece of flat bar stock. I tapped it to line up with the hole with the All Pro Rack mounting holes.I recently got a bed rail from another member. Thanks @Key-Rei . I than proceeded to mount one bed rail to the All Pro rack to the the other bed rail.To Clarify the set up is bedrail-All Prorack-to bed rail.

 

What lights are those on your Westin Light Bar? Are those the KC Cyclones you list in your original post under lighting?

 

No there nitelights off of amazaonI highly recommend them. You can also buy them from Ebay. The KC light is mounted to the bed rack. Hope this helps

 

Thanks, off to Amazon
