1996 3.4l m 4x4 extra cab taco restoration

Do you happen to have an extra one for the '96 laying around? I literally did the same thing as you with the 98' lol. Such a pain

 

We’re back with some updates


Taking winch recommendations

warn Zeon 8-s or runva xp11?

 

Ordered the warn zeon 8 s today and my bank account is already feeling lighter

 

Finally got aloud to the winch install and low and behold everything was a challenge. The fairlead bolts were too wide to fit. Got smaller ones. The fairlead almost doesn’t clear the top bar…

drop the winch on to bolt up and the winch doesn’t sit forward enough to bolt on.

template and some painters tape and a metal punch later

 

How it started vs how it’s going

 

Cool build man. You really brought that truck back to life! How do you like that mountain hatch tailgate?

 

I loved it until I put a tailgate pad for my bikes on. Now i just use 1/8th of it

 

Got the rope on. What a bitch. Putting the factor 55 ultrahook on this week when I get some lock ring pliers.

 

Just look for the part numbers. There’s a ton of suppliers. I can’t remember them anymore but you can dig for them

 

Where did you buy the center console cup holder?

 

on eBay. They come up every now and again. They came out of the bench seat 2001-2003 manuals. I think I paid $80.

 

It’s been weather up here

 

Some updates

new battery and Baja designs lp6 lights
Some new in cab wiring I’ll document replaced the ford roof rack with some yakima cross bars
Ordered some custom demello sliders
New engine blanket

more to come

 

Lights on

 

Hey @Noob95.5,

How are you enjoying the LP6? What are your future goals with the rig? Any plans to add more lighting on the rig?

Best,
Bill
