Great White Taco build

Takes a couple seconds on each rivet with a drill to drill the rivets out. I prefer this over bolting because I don’t need to squeeze my hand in the bumper to hold the nut from spinning. I had a magnet mount once upon front. That’s how I lost my plate haha

 

noted. Thanks

Seat deletes are approximately 20-3/4" front to back and 25-1/2" wide on both drivers and passengers sides.

 

@EatSleepTacos have you tried this? Id want to make a battery box

I haven’t, and I wouldn’t use that for a battery box. That’s just brazing, the two pieces of metal aren’t actually fusing together like in welding. I haven’t done the research on it but I would question it’s strength to hold a heavy battery.

 

The current box is a plastic battery box in my bed. Not the main box in the engine bay. I guess i could make one out of steel, but I feel like that would be too much for just holding a battery.

In his video he patched an aluminum gas tank

 

Ah I thought you meant main one. Nothing wrong with overkill by making one out of steel. It’ll be cheaper in materials and you don’t need to buy more tools to do it. Just my opinion.

 

I really hate when my nuts spin.

 

I hear it gets worse with age.

 

Right, they have the ability to spin a lot more.

 

dude at the tire place asked me if I ever use the truck today. Like nah man I just scratched the hell out of the paint threw in some dents and sprayed the bottom with mud for the fun of it

 

I get asked the same thing

 

But your answer is Yes!!

 

Exactly, then fumble while trying to drive away since it’s a manual.

 

how im gonna feel after I install this

 

this thread needs to wake up I'm bored. I've come to the conclusion that we need to make some wheeling trips before the beach.

 

Lol. I need to get stuff installed. From what i hear LCAs make a huge difference in how the truck rides. Maybe ill get mine on soon

 

do it this weekend
