    3/4” Smittybilt shackles came in. Waiting on the isolators and washers to come in now. I want one of those Factor 55 ultrahook eventually

    The ultra hook or the flat link? There’s no ultra link, although that does sound cool.

    Drove it to work, had a coworker tell me “you really can’t off road in a Tacoma.” :boink: He said it needed a lift and more power. So if bigger and more power is better buddy what’s your wife say? My Taco gets me where I want to go.:p Men don’t talk crap about a woman’s Tacoma it won’t end well :anonymous: o and when I got home the rest of my ARB parts came in so I can get my winch and bumper mounted then order new leafs and coils :thumbsup:

    Terribly :rofl:

    In all seriousness I traced the stock tweeter surround with a Sharpie and then used my Dremel MultiMax to trim the plexi. I used a grinding wheel to smooth the edges and then used a step bit to drill the holes for the two mounting bolts and a 1 13/16" hole saw to drill the hole the tweeter fits through. I would have preferred to cut them out at work using the bandsaw we have.

    I did the same thing with a plastic cutting board from walmart. It was pretty damn bad too. I blew up a 6x9 this week and I am going to give it another try with a dremel since I will have the door off anyway.

    I'm thinking about redoing them and hoping Harbor Freight or Lowes has some good Memorial Day coupons to get me to buy a bandsaw for home.

    Installed my wet okoles that I got from the GB. They are definitely much nicer to look at than my stained seats.
