99 Tacoma build TRD OFF ROAD

i go out to goochlland a lot. use to date some girls out there aslo took my truck through a few feilds out there, hope none were yours.

yeah you probably withh see her many more times in short pump

 

If this were my truck, I'd change out the switches you put on the console (a bit ghetto, IMO) and pick up some zombie switches. Check the net, they're out there. There's more discussion on the Jeep forums. Basically, a switch with etched laser cutting with various LED backlighting. Check it out! And yes, my Jeep will be Zombie certified one of these days (but not my Tacoma).

i was planning on getting the regualar rocker swith like that. but i like the zombie one. ill have to look more into those. thanks for the idea.

 

Soory bout that...Sounds like the Statey was the hater!!!

I know how it is sellin a baby and seeing it change.

A few yrs ago I spent hundreds of hours restoring a 64 1/2 split window VW bus and sold it to a lady who gave it to her 16 yr old son. Driving down the road past an accident I saw said dumb@#s with the VW smashed to hell from running a red while trying to light a joint. Heartbreaking.

I was just razzin ya about the hater comment bud.

 

clean head lights. used some toothpaste.

 

debaging. should i take off the v6? and what about the one on the doors? if anyone has pictures of the debaged doors that would be great

 

debaged a few things ill get pictures of the side one tomorrow.

 

could you post a some pics on how those lights are mounted in the front bumper... I'm wanting the same thing but I would like to see some close ups before I commit to it... also a pic or two from behind would be great - thanks

 

yeah man ill go take some now. did you mean take some from behind the lights? or behind the truck? ill take both just incase.

 

here are the close ups on the PIAA lights in the front bumper as requested. if you can see the plastic piece is cut so they fit nice and snug. hope these help

 

thanks man - I appreciate it a bunch because I am buying my lights this week to do this same thing and it's always good to see it done before... you got a nice truck there - I'm kinda jealous.

 

no problem. yes i agree with seeing it done before you do it. (thats the main reason i joined TW. and is that bed liner on the bottom half of your truck? i would like the bed line the bottom of mine but im to scared ill 100% do it by next winter. i hate when salt sits on my paint.

 

Yes it is - rustoleum shake and spray rattle can stuff - pretty tough stuff - I only have 1 chip in it and I'm not sure how it happened... but, I can just spray some more on. It was super easy to put on - I did a write up on all the mods to my truck on my build thread - click the truck in my signature to see further details - and the lights will be next on the mod list...

 

Hey I'm curious how your roof rack mounts on? i fabbed one the other day but i'm not sure how to mount it when I get lights. Maybe trade rack pics for sub pics???

 

Thanks man I thc no I see how that works... maybe run the wire through the tube to the back of the truck and through the back window???? And I took a few pics of my subs for you ill get those up in a hour or so.

 

Oh, and another thing. How do u like your BL. Everyone on here talks crap about them but I'm interested in a 2" lift to get 5 . I like the way that looks with 33's since I wanna get tires and rims this summer.

 

i hate body lifts. i didnt put the lift on this truck. it a three inch BL and when you get on the interstate ramps it leans bad and feels like im gona flip. id only put a 1 inch body lift maybe two, but not three its too much. i plan on getting the 4 inch Old Man Emu lift. my dad has three of them and i love the ride. one day if i have the money ill take my body lift off. ill post a picture of it in a minute.

 

body lift pictures.. i want to put something in there to hid the gap.

 

Yea, i'd make some splash guards or somethin'. I'll probly get a 1" so I don't have to deal with shifter extensions and stuff. I just think 33's look better if the lift is 4 or 5 inches instead of just 3.
