Nice looking truck! Greetings from another aviation student (Broke pilot/flight instructor)!

 

Thank you! its great to see other people in the aviation field on this forum!

 

Sorry for not updating my build on here I've been really busy with school :/ but with this corona virus I've been having a lot of free time. I recently decided to do my skid plate because it was just a total eye sore. So some bedliner and elbow grease I made it look x100 better! I like the way it came out . I also bought cali raise bed stiffeners instead of total chaos; why did I do that? Just to save $60 lol. waiting for em to come in the mail and I will get em installed. I also have a cb mount installed, just waiting for my setup to come in too

 

Just installed my cali raised bed racks, pretty happy with the results. I will post the pictures later today as I am pretty tired. pretty mad that I didn't take before pictures but the bed racks definitely fixed the massive gap I had on the driver side of my bedside. Also just pulled the trigger on OEM bed mats and an OEM roof rack so definitely will keep you guys posted when I get those in

 

Hey everyone who's still interested in my build! With covid, school and everything going on I haven't been able to do much with the truck. However, I did get around to installing an @At The Helm front bumper with the custom hoops! and I love it so far! Also, tryna to get those summit offroad dakar rims man those are nice. Hopefully, I can do big changes to the truck soon. Will keep you guys updated. Here's a picture of the ATH front bumper

 

Post some pics of your truck with the SCS wheels.

 

i will get more pictures posted up soon!

 

Hey guys its been a LONG time since I updated this thread so I guess I have some pictures to throw in right now and explain the progress so far lol



So it did have a ATH FAB plate bumper and I decided to go the prerunner route, so I took everything off because I was gonna steel it the core support, thanks to @singletrack_ftw for the idea! it made my front end look super clean! as you could tell before it was all faded and digusting. The fiberglass wasn't hard to fit on I had to do some body work to make em fit and it was also my first time so I think it went pretty well.


this is with the fiber glass and everything installed on

 

after the fiberglass was installed, i went to nefarious kustoms here in vegas to get my bumper fabbed up and they totally killed it! it went better than i expected and I am super happy with how it came out!



super stoked! and i forgot to mention I did swap my methods for SCS -38mm offset so they sit almost flush with the fiberglass! super stoked on the rims, everyone always compliments them! my next big thing to do on the truck now is to go long travel for the front. I am still deciding on which long travel kit to go with, right now its either total chaos or dirt king! I will keep updating this thread as I go and hopefully i dont get lazy. and if i forget anything i will be sure to upload it. this truck did go through a major transformation from being an overlander truck at first to a blown out prerunner in the future

 

hey so this is the only picture i have right now before I installed my fiberglass and my prerunner bumper on! they're a -38mm offset so its a pretty aggressive offset and I had to do a somewhat big cab mount chop, pinchweld delete and fender trimming to fit them in and have no rubbing

 

Wow. The truck looks absolutely killer!!! Nice job on all of that. I would seriously recomend you take a long hard look at @81Trekker ”JD FAB” long travel kits. He seems to beat all of the mainstream big name brand LT kits in pretty much every aspect and his kits are priced competitively & he offers items that no other manufacturers are offering right now. HIGHLY recommend you look into his stuff.

Yes I was actually thinking about this kit a lot too! Do you or @81Trekker know anyone who runs this kit right now?

 

Lots of guys in this thread have this kit, ask away in here...

I’m saving my pennies for the 2.25 kit. I LITERALLY NEED IT and yes of course I want it also but a man has needs, doesn’t he?

 

thanks guys, i really like this kit a lot and will probably end up with this kit! will be snooping around in that thread in the time being

 

interesting build i like it anything new to update on?

 

Nothing at the moment, the fenders been painted to color match and I basically been working on my first gen tacoma lol

still considering long travel for the future

 

gotcha gotcha well dont forgot to post pics in here!
