My in progress Yota!

plasti-derp the mirrors and put some vht night shades on the front blinkers.

 

good idea ^^ how well does the plati-dip hold up on the mirrors? do you need to prep the mirrors before painting them?

 

holds up fine and looks good, I just rinsed with water then sprayed a little simple green on gave it a little scrub-a-dub-dub then rinse with water again till it doesn't create any more suds, let dry. Then tape the glass part off, put about 3-4 solid layers on and peal the tape off the glass in about 5-10 mins so the pasti-dip doesn't set up too much before you peal the edges.

 

sweet! this the next step after i replace my cv boots

 

Got it all taken apart just to find they gave me the wrong part, thanks Autozone -_-

 

And during the take apart this happened... Last time i buy anything made in Taiwan ha

 

Autozone can be so shitty. I called them today about a sway bar end link and the guy I was talkin too didn't know what I was talkin about

 

next mod i would say headlights! go for some projectors
also, has your truck been repainted? It looks really clean

 

Haha thanks man but na it hasnt been repainted, when i bought about a year ago it was a REALLY UGLY burnt orange/redish mess. So one day a few months back i spent no joke 12 hours with a drill buffer and rubbing compound...

The rubbing compound was going on white and coming off red but it really did the job and i wax it about every 2-3 weeks

 

ya seriously!! i was talking to them about the seal that goes inside the front diff and they had no idea so i just hung up and reused the seal but only cause it was in pretty good shape

 

wow. thats one clean 1st gen for original paint!

 

haha thanks man its a constant process, like putting a full body truck cover when i leave it in the sun for more than a few hours
