TWheat40's Build and Adventure Thread

Your rollin’ on 33.489” tires as well?

 

Heck yeah I am Jaime. All the cool kids are.

 

Oh I definitely tell people that.

I told you I just wanted to be like you.

Plus it's a good middle ground.

 

Went to Peter's Mill Run today with @EatSleepTacos and @steiner9er

We had some fun and got a little dirty. Would definitely recommend it as a beginner/intermediate trail. Nothing hard, just bumpy and has some places where you "could" damage your rig if not careful.

Also don't attempt the mud pit unless you're prepared. My attempt (videos below) could've ended in tragedy if we didn't plan ahead with a quick recovery.

 

Also got my solar shower finished and installed this weekend. 4" PVC pipe with a tire valve for air and a hose faucet. Painted black and attached to the prinsu with hose clamps.

 

Looking to blackout my emblems as well. You liking the overlays and are they holding up?

 

They are great. Havent faded and havent even shown signs of ever coming off.

 

Rustolium gloss black rattle can will take care of this

 

No need to even tape anything!

 

You know it Randy! @FadedComa s T4R is black so no need to mask or prep. Spray & Pray buddy!

 

Tyler, what company made your flag decals? I wanted to get them for my Crosstrek.

 

Is that the blue subie?

 

Its Grey!!!

 

Are you sure? It looks blue.

Any updates on naming it yet?

 

Where are you going to pop your 8k post? May I suggest The Zoo?

 

Overlook Graphics I think was where I got them. But they took like a month or longer to actually get them to me, and customer service was shit. There are other places to get them, just look for 4runner American flag window decal. Then you should be able to find a size that fits your subie. I don't remember what size mine was, but you can just measure the window you want to cover and pick the size that works.

EDIT: It looks like there are a couple companies that make them cut to fit that little triangular window you have, but I would just buy the full flag then cut it to fit. Thats how I did mine.

It looks blue to me....

 

That moment when you brag about your grey subaru......... only to find out it's blue!!

 

Powder blue at that

 

Armor time!!

So I finally got my @CBI Offroad Fab bumper this week, and have spent the better part of 3 days painting and prepping it, and then installed it today.

This is a very well built bumper and I am very happy with how it turned out. I do need to touch up some of the cutting I did to the old bumper, but that's for another time. I have a smittybilt 9500 lb steel cable winch with it, which I will be spooling this week, along with a flatlink on it's way to replace the hook.
