AzogSS' Build.

nice truck!

 

Azog, I have a few questions about that rear bumper. I've been looking all over for a bumper that almost looks stock but has, well, pretty much what yours has. The only thing I'm curious about is, do you lose the stock hitch receiver and plug? If you could, can you put some more pics up with a little more detail? By the way, great lookin' truck.

 

I'm the fabricator of the bumper, so I can help answer the questions.
The stock hitch must be removed to fit my bumper, but you gain much more clearance over stock by doing so. The hitch in the bumper is not load certified for a maximum capacity, however they are quite strong being integrated into the whole bumper structure of 3/16" and 1/4" steel.
I can cut in a place to mount a 7 prong wiring plug, but you'll need to wire in an aftermarket plug as the stock plug's mounting method will not work with my bumper and the thicker material used.
If you have any more questions, feel free to PM me here on the forum directly.

 

Truck looks good! Glad you got the Rigid Bar to fit behind the grill.

 

Lets see some pics of that lighting set up now

RI Light bar + leds + FX-R = Blinding light...

A question: where did you get those led lights? (circular) I want to add some more lights behind the satoshi but trying to get a bang for the buck sorta thing.

 

Two different brands on my truck, as I have 4 rear facing. Ill show you them this weekend.

 

any updates...

 

No I bought my commuter vehicle and my swamp boat, I hope to put OBA and an ARB locker on in the near future.

 

whenever you get tired of that ARB you know where to find a brother....

EDIT: You using the 885X with that? I thought you'd need the 886's or no?

 

nice ride!

Love that rim,tire,roof rack, ARB combo you've got going on

 

Im loving your Suspension + ARB so much i think i'll copy it.



How ya been bud? Infantry OSUT was a blast! Not. haha.

 

Better watch out for those recruiters

 

well i found one truck for some mods i like. mainly the ARB, roof rack, and rear bumper. picking up my 08 trail team dbl cab tomorrow!! then ARB bumper in september! where did you get the roof rack and do you think it would hold at CVT topper tent?

 

Wheres your pic of your new RTT? I was lurking the RTT threads and i saw that you bought one.. where is it.

 

How did you wire up the fog lights and the turn signal lights in the bumper?

 

Nice truck.

 

Front end being freshened up next.

 

Stock ARB lights that have never been hooked up since I got the bumper. Morimoto X DRL bought from TRS.



drilled holes as far out as I could 6 1/16"

Both drilled and ready.







So far they look pretty good during the day I'll try to get some pics tonight. They act like small projectors, bending the light enough to have color flashes depending on your angle to them (blue/green/white).

Wired mine through the factory fog light harness and switch because when I replace the ARB fogs I will use the Rigid Industries harness. They only need to tap into one wire then the harness powers both from that one source.

The screw holes I drilled lined up perfectly with the ARB holes for the equipped turn/marker but I did have to get shorter screws (Stainless size 8, 3/4" length).

 

X DRL only.




X DRL and FXRs.
