    Yup that’s the exact photo I got the idea from. The gunmetal with the green looks sick.

    Actually went today searching for some steelies at the lkq but couldn’t find any that weren’t bent or rusted to shit. I’m going to try out one more junk yard and if no luck then to the paint I go.

    Connected power mirror controls for the ‘04 mirrors I installed on my ‘98 Taco. A little tedious working with new factory pin connectors but good news is the power and pass side wiring is already in place across the cab which made the wiring easier.

    I wish they were available. Been on nationwide backorder for awhile now. I called a bunch of folks trying to get a lead 6 months ago and the story was always the same (backordered and no way to know for how long).

    New shoes finally went on. Super happy with it so far. Wasn’t expecting it to turn so much easier.

    Just got back from another 7 weeks in the dusty butthole of the world.. unpackaged all the goodies sent to me, which includes a full manual front hub conversion from @zippsub9. Ome883’s, 1” spacers, and finally the callipers to complete my tundra brake upgrade.. Also some interior Molle panels from OG fabrication.. man I waited like 4 months for those panels, and they look like a 6 year old cut them out with a butter knife, then slopped a coat of paint on while playing in the sandbox.. kills my ocd.

    Needless to say next week I’ll be tearing apart the front to get that all done. Officially Pumped to be back in civilization

    No worries. I’ll take a few minutes to do a more detailed write-up while it’s still fresh on my old brain! It really is a simple wiring job once you understand the connectors to use and where each wire goes.
    Best.

    No fabrication. I bought the seat brackets for our trucks, from corbeau as well. With the brackets they are direct bolt in.
