3rd Gen Quicksand thread

What kind of paint did you use?

 

A few upgrades.

 

First annual WI/midwest camping and 4 wheeling trip this past weekend - such a great time. 11 trucks (all 3 gens) and a 4runner playing in the sand, dirt, water and rocks.

 

Rustoleum Gloss Khaki with white primer and gloss clear coat. All Same brand. It’s not EXACT, but it’s so damn close that it doesn’t bother me whatsoever

 

What rims are those?

 

Nice rig man! Where is this scenery if you dont mind me asking?

Any tips for removing those pieces? Also what paint did you use?

 

I used while rustoleum primer, rustoleum Gloss Khaki (Walmart has it for about $4), and rustoleum Gloss clear coat. For the big piece, the one that surrounds the radio, pull out on the right most side. Don’t be afraid, it takes a good deal of force, but then the rest will follow. Same with the smaller piece to the left of the steering wheel. For that one, pull the left most side out and the rest follows. That piece is tricky to get off from around the steering wheel so take your time and tilt your wheel and turn signal down. Make sure all clips come out and place on the back of the panel. Then it’s just small Phillips head screws to separate the painted pieces. It’s a super simple process. There are YouTube vids also

 

Cool rig!

What's the weight capacity of the tent?

 

How come the rivets are black on this truck and on the website they are chrome?

 

Those aren’t rivets. They’re small bolts that are removable. The owner either painted them or replaced them with black ones.

Thanks! It's a Smittybilt overlander tent and they say the weight capacity is 661lbs!

 

Where did you get the "TRD" center cap for these rims man?

 

You replaced the stock chrome rivets?

 

Oh nice! I didn't know they were removable

 

Perfect color match with the road...

 

I have a MC arid boonie hat I could compare it to the QS paint if that would help.

 

Thanks, I did end up buying a roll of the multicam. It should be in any day. I'll have a definitive answer shortly.
