Nagorb's build

subd

 

Haha! Not much to see, I'm terrible at updating this, I semi finished my rear bumper dual batteries etc but haven't taken any pics yet and have been lagging on finishing the bumper.

 

With the rear shocks positioned l l , did you have to cut thru the bed at all? I want my set up the same but I want full access of my bed. Thanks.

 

Nope, no cutting needed.

 

Bump for updates!

 

Love the build. Im going to work on building a front bumper for mine soon. Just not sure how I'm going to mount it yet. I want a winch but I'm not 100% sure how to make a winch plate separate of the bumper itself. I'm sure i'll figure it out when I get into it though

 

Thanks!

Do you want the winch plate permanently mounted to the truck or do you want them both bolted on?

 

Im not sure to be honest... I want to just weld it on to make it easier but will probably bolt it on so Im not having to worry about cutting if off down the road for whatever reason.

 

@nagorb Just spotted you on Airport Rd.

Of course of all days and times I wasn't in my truck to look cool.

 

That usually seems to be the case! I was headed to pick up some some welding stuff in opelika.

 

Where ya been I haven't seen you in awhile.

 

Yeah I haven't been buzzing around here much. Have had my nose to the grindstone for a while but it is paying off!

 

I hear that! Though sometimes I don't think it pays off for me lol

 

@nagorb
Spotted you again coming through Tiger Town about 11:20.
Definitely did not realize you were a bearded ginger as well, pretty weird. ha


Truck looked great!

 

Haha!

Were you in your Tacoma? I totally missed you.

 

Yes I was in my new regular cab.
I will wave so much more frantically next time.

 

Lol

 

Diggin that bumper!

Question: I saw you mentioned a dual battery setup, did you fit the aux battery under the hood? If so, where and what battery? Ive got a first gen and want to put in a second battery in the engine bay, but I can't seem to find the room!

 

Thanks!

I'm really terrible at updating this, I mounted mine on the passenger wheel well. I had to move the cruise control box and the igniter. it's a group 34 AGM from AutoZone. I can take pics later. It's currently no installed, but the brackets there.

 

Your truck looks to have made quite the transition.
I can imagine it was painstakingly time consuming, messing with the front bumper build.
Did you use cardboard for patterns?
