Trowbocop's SR5 Build

bumper looks great man, nice work

white access/xtra cabs ftw

 

Thanks! I am satisfied with it. I did all of the cutting, designing and measuring- and my buddy welded it up for me.

for white tacomas! haha

I like your front bumper- ARB?

 

Ya I'd be down to go out this weekend, well depends on when money hits my account for gas money.
Got that cb installed if you end up picking one up ill be happy to help you instal yours!

 

Badass, I'll let you know. So you got it for 20, then what else did you have to pick up to make it all work?

 

i still have to get the antenna cable and antenna, itll run around 50 bucks
i bought 40 feet of 16g. wire at walmart for 5 bucks

 

Sweet. You going to the Gorman run tomorrow??

 

First wheelin trip in California was awesome. Very different kind of terrain. Tons of sand and washouts/ woops and hillclimbs. I'm used to rocky crawlin, so this is new- but here a few shots from the trip

 

Thanks, it was way fun! Cant wait to put my OME on

 

Got my OME Nitrocharger Sports all installed! Used 881's up front, and it rides like...well it doesn't ride. It floats, I hover around now

Everything has changed, it's like I ride on air- absorbing everything. Going to order Dakar leaf packs in the future, so semi-bro-leanin now. I'll probably add aals next saturday, so I can bring my rear up a bit.

Will upload photos of before and add measurements. Just stoked I cleared that box-o-suspension out of my room and cured my trucks blue ballz

Going to be awesome getting used to the new ride

 

Just took after measurements:

Front:
Before: 35.5" After: 37.75"

Rear:
Before: 36.75" After: 36.25"

So, gained 2.25" of lift in front, and lost .5" in the rear- these shocks are way softer than my HD billys


I'll have a photo sesh sometime today too

 

I helped out a lil on this... Well just putting the tires back on lol thanks for the lil seats after you took them away the difficulty level went up by like 75%

 

They were Heavy Duty Bilsteins- oem height. They were put on by my Pops about 35k miles ago.

 

Took a quick spin to test the shocks, but no pics unfortunately. Ended up taking a 30+ mile ride on my bike today- took all day haha. But I'll throw some pics up that I took right after installation!

 

Nice truck man I like what you have done with it!

 

Yeah, I'm still kickin myself for not getting the 883s

Should have, but I'm stoked on the 881s. Once I get more weight goin on, then i'll for sure upgrades

 

Thanks man! It's nothin special, but it's what I got goin on haha

 

Moar lift, and wouldn't have to change them when I get more weight up front. But having the smoothest ride possible outweighed my desire for more lift- you don't have the problem that I read about- maxxing out the shocks and having a stiff ass ride that bounces/ slams, do you?

 

Got the fronts put on



Then it rained for a bit as I did the rears



Big thanks to all who helped, also Manwithoutaplan for lettin us do it at his house using his tools, and for the ez-up haha.



Put on all 4 shocks, extended brake line and BPV.

This next saturday going to put on diff drop and aals

 

Nice, yeah- mine seems to absorb everything pretty well. Obviously I still feel some small stuff, but WOW the big stuff like whoops at intersections feel like I'm in a hovercraft! Definitely stoked on OME
