JD's '02 Tacoma Build

It didnt start until yesterday morning and it was just sitting in the driveway so ikd if got cold or what. Its enough to run down the shaft and drip on the ground but its only like a quarter sized spot where its dripping. Is that a lot?

 

Hmmm, I would say just see how bad it gets in glamis. If it starts getting worse ill have my passenger seat open if you dont wanna deal with it. The GF cant come unfortunately

 

Its coming to Glamis and getting mobbed for sure, whatever happens to the shock I will deal with later, but I def want to take a ride in the beibstaco

 

Thats the winning attitude.. haha!

 

Awww yeah

 

Might just the order of the pics not sure, but it looks like the rear is rebounding way faster then the front I know this hard to deal with as you don't usually have any rebound valving with leafs but maybe something can be done to compensate in the front.

Looking good though

 

Truck looks good through those whups

 

Its hard to tell but most of those are because the front is still in the middle of landing on the next whoop. It actually stayed really level and never bucked all weekend. If the rear was rebounding too fast it would be kicking the rear end up.

 

Nice pics dude!

 

Your truck killed it out there this weekend! We need to have more local offroad meets with u Eric and paden! All ur trucks are sweet

 

Thanks I am happy. The way it performs confirms the next step

 

Looks like the truck did good! How did everything hold up?

 

Cageee!!! haha, same here.

But yeah dude, the truck is solid. One of my favorite first gens.
And you know how to drive it.

 

Ya it handled those whoops very good, I could show u some pics of rear ends bucking I went for a ride in this beast and woooo doggie, time for next step.......cage right

 

Everything is good except my drivers side headlight just kinda glows, it doesnt really work anymore but I dont know if that was related

Thanks and yes

Looks like a good start

 

Yeah its not exact and def not a final, just kinda getting an idea of how I want it to look. The green tubes would be my current bed cage so the last part would be just behind the rear cab wall. Not sure if I like it
