My Work in Progress

Next, i needed to fill that empty spot behind my bumper. I also wanted to lower my front, it was about an inch higher than the rear which really bothered me. I plan on doing a full leaf pack in the rear at some point. Anyway, i found a smittybilt x20 10k with synthetic line for $475 shipped. Install was easy with two people.

 

Also, pulled off my sway bar again... forever. Ordered a set of SOS concepts sliders. Cant wait!

 

i dig this setup a lot

 

Thanks! I am really happy with how its turning out.

 

did you sell your wheels?

 

Yup, just recently sold them. Sorry man

 

no worries!

 

I ended up picking up a set of Bushwacker fender flares for $250 brand new on craigslist. I figured i would give them a try. They were for the 12-15 tacoma but since i wasnt going to use the bumper piece, everything else should fit perfect. The install was pretty straight forward but the fit is tight. Having an extra set of hands would have been helpful but i am really happy with the results. I may paint the bolts black, but i will save that for another day. What do you guys think?

 

looks great! black bolts would look good, but they match the beadlock how they are. decisions decisions...

 

I know, such tough decisions!

 

Just installed some MOLLE center console panels from Victory 4x4. I really just needed a spot to stick my CCW while driving and this seemed like a cool option. I am going to order some accessories but i am really liking them!

 

Also, i am getting some bad vibrations after 55 mph. they go away after i put it in 4wd so i am assuming it is the needle bearing. I ordered a ECGS bushing and plan to install it asap. Hopefully that fixes it. It is driving me crazy!

 

Keep me updated...running into the same thing

 

Couple of updates!

ECGS bushing arrived but havnt got around to installing it
SOS concept sliders arrived, i got them LineXed and they look awesome. Going to install them in the next couple of weeks.
MESO TRD center caps - Ran into a small issue. Apparently Method uses both 6 hole and 3 hole center caps. Ill have to drill out some holes but i will save that for a winter project lol I would recommend looking at yours before you make the purchase but i think they look a lot better than the factory caps.
Plastidipped my fading hood scoop
Also, I ran into clearance issues with my JBA UCAs so i added spidertrax i had laying around in the front and Bora 1 inch spacers in the rear. They look perfect with the bushwackers

 

First pic is a an update after the spacers. I think they sit perfect.
Also, picked up a pair of factory leafs off a third gen taco. Going to add a progressive leaf set on them. My stocks+AAL are starting to really sag in the rear. I picked up the stock leafs for $40. I just cant justify buying a full leaf pack yet so this is a good alternative for me
I ordered a Victory 4x4 roof rack. I really liked the design and the price point was right were i wanted to be. Cant wait to get it in.

Looking good man! sub'd!

 

Thanks man! Lots of stuff to come. I love your color btw cement is my favorite

 

Well i was able to get my sliders on today! Ran into one issue. I installed the sliders and then realized that there wasnt a relief cut for one of the rivets so i had to pull them both back off which was a lot of fun to do by myself. Not a big deal, just had to drill it out and put them back on. SOS makes some awesome stuff, excellent fit and finish. I am really happy with out it turned out. I love the Line-X, what do you guys think?

 

Got my Victory 4x4 roof rack. I will hopefully be putting it on my truck this weekend but until then, it will be an excellent addition to the living room lol

Heads up for anyone ordering a roof rack, they are now including edge trim for the front. I had already ordered some on Amazon that i will have to return but very nice that they included it. The rack went together really well and looks great!

 

Roof Rack is on and i love it! I plan to get one for the cap when Victory4x4 comes out with one. I also ordered a pelfreybilt rear bumper from BAMF! I think i am going to slow down for a bit... my wallet is exhausted.
