98-00 Tacomas Only

33x10.5r15 with 5100's set at middle notch. Bolted some receivers to the tow points for recovery and a 97 bumper.

 

Maybe he's got the blower on his. If he doesn't it's still good for 10-15 horses.

Thanks. Looks like nearly a perfect match.

 

Well it’s brighter than the paint on my truck, but my paint is definitely faded.

 

After trying to get my hands on a parts truck from Copart and trying to get panels for cheap through a shop, I said screw it and got everything from Rockauto. Fender apron is nearly straight again, just gotta get the panels in so I can find where the holes need to line up at. Should be on the road again in a few weeks. Getting repainted after that

 

There is one issue though. These headlights are out of stock and I have found no way of getting in contact with the seller. How will I know when they will be back in stock? https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-1998-2...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

 

These looks nice than can add which ever bulbs. Any idea wher to source an all black factory grill?

 

I got a set of black housing Anzo's which seem to be the same from Amazon.

Has anybody had problems with the passenger side tire rubbing really hard AFTER removing the mud flap AND after installing Camburg ucas? I've already trimmed the inner liner, but it still rubs when at full lock turning right and when backing up. This didn't start till after I had alignment done after installing a set of 5100's and OME 881s. It's only the passenger side for some reason. Also, just how far up are people trimming the inner fender liner? Pics?

 

I like them, but what about corner lights?

 

Rockauto sells one. I just bedlined mine

 

I just purchased a black one from RockAuto yesterday to replace my broken chrome one. Crazy cheap part at $~29 delivered.

 

Just ordered one also. If we could find some black housings and black bumper caps to replace the chrome ones would be nice.

Everyone else just painting the chrome bumper caps?

nzbrock on here painted them body color(SFR) and they came out looking awesome in pics. He listed his proceedure on his build page. IIRC he glass beaded them first, then etching primer and the paint. This is what I plan to do too.

Can you remove the chrome cap inserts without removing the bumper?

 

From what I’ve read just unbolt the bumper to get at them.

 

I might just gloss black plasti dip the bumper caps and rear bumper. Than only left to the headlight housings.

Questions!? If I adjust my coil overs up another 0.5” should I worry about my alignment?

 

I actually just used aluminum oxide to blast them, but any media that cuts will likely work. If you don't have access to a sand blaster you could probably scuff them really well with a scotch brite pad (I mean really well).

You have to remove the bumper to get them off because you can't access the bolts with it on.

 

Think I went with tinted corners from ebay
