Spoonman’s Little Tacoma

Here’s a video from today.

And some pics

 

Not very far actually. I’ve got a couple inches. Need it lower

 

We should meet up sometime, I’m going snow wheeling in the missions today actually.

 

That would be fun.



Well both my headlights are broken again.


Going to change the front end lighting situation

 

Did the vandal who stole your headlights take your windshield too?!

 

Kinda looks cool without headlights...

 

This thing could be rainbow colored with a unicorn on the hood and it would still look sick AF!

 

Got a window put in, put my big electric fan back in since I have room for it again. Pulled out some wiring and stuff on it today, got different wheel nuts so I could finally ditch the spline drive nuts which I so dearly hate.


moved my arb switches to a more convenient spot.


Did a bunch of shit to it today

 

Does your fast idle switch actually control fast idle? How does that work?

 

Yes, I have it hooked up So it’ll bump the rpm from idle (about 750), to 950, and 1100. It’s a 3 position switch. Really nice for crawling.

 

Tell me more about this.... Or have you already posted how you have this wired (been following the build, but don't remember seeing this). This is an obvious great addition for crawling

 

Here’s a little video for ya

I didnt watch the video yet, but did you tie into the idle up circuit on the powesteering system?

If it's in the video just tell me I'm a dumbass and watch then ask questions

 

That’s really cool I’d like to know how you did it.

 

In the video it’s just me breathing heavily into the mic.



Truck without me or the dog in it.



I’d really like to get it down under 5000. I know it’s perfectly achievable.

 

So we are gonna need an explanation on how you wired that up. This is something I want to do asap

 

My SAS double cab was 5,100lbs fully loaded with a full dometic fridge, tools, 2 weeks worth of clothes and food and a RTT! Must be your heavy axles and tires. 2,600 on the front and 2,500 on the rear for me.

 

You have tons on it?

 

No, diamond up front and stock in the rear for now, will probably put an 80 series full float in the back.

 

Ahh ok yeah. My axles are about 550 lbs each.
