    I’m kind of interested in the hood, what flavor? I know you had a fiberglass one for sale a bit ago. Mine has some serious scratches and abuse.

    Yes
    Well with the appropriate cost of living index differential from the UP to San Diego that's going to run you around $100

    Ideally
    If I could sell the truck for 8k $
    in This condition:
    No front suspension
    Everything else on the truck will be sold as One
    And any extra parts “you” want you can buy individually from me

    the solo kit is selling for 8k brakes included
    (no shocks)

    the hood is 500

    headlights are retrofit source NIB so I want near msrp

    Meso parts I lost track of cost so items can be had as a bundle for whatever deal that person offers at the time I’m sorting through it finally

    shocks and Camburg axel will eventually go on sell off-road unless someone hits me with an offer before hand

    specs on everything parts wise is in my build thread so please go there so I don’t have to hunt for pictures in my phone LOL


    There is still a OEM audio plus (brand) stereo and amp in the truck with their door speakers (and all 4 doors are perfect condition) that will be left in the truck also

    I 100% would have bought it and built my truck using your stuff if it had been available before I ripped into mine... ah well!

    My Taco is about to get WAY too much money in exhaust in preparation for boost….

    Decided to save the V8 life for a real build in the next couple of years.

    This 1gr is just too dang reliable.

    Wonder how quick I will regret this decision?

    Going to hard to make a v6 sound good. I know my exhaust is bottlenecking my supercharger but I haven't heard a good sounding v6 with exhaust.

    My mbrp cat back is enough for me

    Good luck to you though. I'm sure it will look great at least

    That’s because of the y pipe. Which is part of this project!

    The word boost gets tossed out there, and here comes the dude!

    Pumped to start this journey of an equal length Y transitioning to 3” and dumping out the bed side!

    It can be done. An X-pipe into a y-pipe does offer some benefits. If staying single.

    Put on a turbo and cams in, and I promise that it will sound good. :D

    Why would it rattle? That’s what hangers are for! Honestly I’ll probably have a hanger right off of my shock tower.

    Also took the jump to begin collecting back purging supplies! After all, if you’re gonna do it. It may as well be done right!

    I’ve been getting some local requests for exhaust work. And I simply wasn’t setup well enough to entertain it. That’s all over. Time to build a show piece so I can make it look like shit in a weeks time!
