‘Dad Shred build thread’ double locked & 5:29’s SOLD, now 2014 tundra cm TRD OR

Thank you! It’s undoubtedly the coolest rear I’ve ever seen on a tacoma. Joe killed it. I’m gonna have him do the same for a front bumper, bobbing the front skid up higher and getting rid of the low cross member

 

Nice! How much higher can you get the front skid before you’re on the diff though? Or you just talking the front approach area?

And get that 150 in so you can go crunch on some trails! Need more pics!

Also, lawn pics!

 

Jd Fab does that for their customers and I love it and wish I could too. Your truck is already bit goingvto be even more killer.

 

“150 in”? This bike treats the chunkiest enduro rocky trails like they are nothing! It doesn’t need any shock tuning as it is right now

 

For the front it will only be the leading ramped skid edge that will be higher, cant really raise the bottom of the front skid

 

REAR DIFF IS FLUSHED AFTER 500 MILE BREAK-IN, LETS FRIGGIN SEND IT BOYS

 

Hood has been fluttering on highway & it no longer “pops” open when I pull the release so I drilled some holes and threw in some Amazon $40 release buttons. Super clean and all problems solved.

 

Let us know how the upper core support holds up. I’ve seen the hood latch pins get ripped out without reinforcing

 

That kinda makes sense to me because the core support is so friggin weak but I think it will be ok

 

Locker is WIRED and tested on dirt lot! Yeehaw. Also got these Chinese bright bois, threw them in the bumper just need to wire them to fog harness. Also need to dremel out the dash knockout spot for my locker switch. The switch is larger than this opening.

 

Wired up my new Chinese pods to my fog harness and I’m very impressed with the light output. Naturally, Had to flex on my street. I literally just removed my factory fogs & drilled a hole in the bottom of the fog pocket for these pods and then butt connected fog wires to the pod harness after chopping off the factory connector. I wish I did this a long time ago.

1. Headlights only

2. Fog lights only

3. Flexin on my neighbors

 

Where did you get the lights from?

FRONT LOCKER IS AN ABSOLUTE GAME CHANGER. ALSO 5:29GEARS.

 

All cleaned up from the trip & since my front bumper won’t stay on secure enough anymore I’ll just rock the crash bar and paint the front chassis / core support. I also relocated my front rock lights and fog pods.

 

YALL READY FOR ME TO CUT A COUPLE OF LARGE HOLES IN MY HOOD FOR VENTS? IM READY.

 

Man, your build thread is giving me too many ideas. Nice looking truck!

 

Thanks man! She’s very purpose built and does many things really well. Just rotated tires today. Due for an oil change but I don’t have enough oil on hand.

 

Yep. I call it the cheater switch. Can't do an obstacle? Just flip the cheater switch and drive right up it. Last year I did Cadillac Hill on the Rubi with the front locked the whole time. I couldn't even tell you where the "hard" obstacles everyone complains about where. lol
