My68ur8's Build

Good God this is one SWEET ride! I'm envious!!!

 

Thanks, I need to make some more of the local meets, I havent seen those guys in months.

I need to make some updates to.

I just got a 2011 grille and will be working on a spare tire mount soon for it

Justin

 

Swapped to the 2011 grille, I like the black center better than the silver I had with my 2010 grill. I need to get some updated full shots of the truck



Justin

 

Very very nice build! That is some investment!

 

Yes, the 2011 grill is much better, especially if you like the stock look.

 

Hey man! haven't met you yet i dont believe, but i just seen u drivin around the other day on warwick and bland here in newport news the other day. i was drivin the red 2004 dc with the TRD on the windshield and the Not of this World on the back window. anyways. hope to see you around or at a meet soon! ill be going to shoe creek this upcoming sunday (the 22nd) with bandit and fennywald for the day. pm me with ur number if u want details man. ill let u know as soon as i find out for myself. btw nice lookin truck man! i see u put quite a bit of dough into it. keep up the good work!

 

awesome job man looks great. Def cool to see a lot of the mechanical mods. good indepth pics too.

 

The powdercoated valve cover really set off the engine bay. Also how did you mount the ammo cans? I have been wanting to do that but Just haven't looked in tot the mounting too much.

Great build.

 

I used carriage bolts from HD and drilled holes in the boxes and bolted them to the track. i put rubber washers in and out of the can to keep water out

been a year and no leaks

I go the idea from a write up here

Hello fellow virginian. Beautitful Truck.

where did you get that fancy battery tie down. ?

 

I got the battery tie down for my last truck, and I am pretty sure the guy that was making them got shut down by Toyota and doesn't make them anymore.

Thanks for the comment

Justin

 

Naw he still does them...he's a buddy of mine
(not try to thread jack)

 

Looking damn sexy all the way around. Valve covers are just icing on the cake! Would you consider a Satoshi type grill?

 

I have thought about it in the past, but I like the 2011 sport grill alot.

Everyone has a satoshi nowadays, and I would want lights behind it, but I dont want to block the heat exchanger.

Since they made this grille for only one year, i figured it was more rare.


Thanks for the compliments

Justin

 

Ammo Can mod is awesome

 

This showed up today



Budbuilt Trac bar ( I didnt take all the rod ends and hardware out of the box)

bye bye axle wrap and the last little bit of driveline vibe at WOT

should put the power down nicely once I get this on

Justin

 

Cool. Might need one :-/

 

might be rock bait for you. I should protect the stock driveshaft actually now that I think about it

Its beefy ( 120 wall) and the bracket is 3/8"
