1998triton Tacoma Build

Got a package in today from All-Pro


Extended rear brake line
Diff drop

 

Got the rear brake line installed

 

Picked these up from guy for $120. trail-gear tube doors.


My transmission parts came in today from Marlin Crawler. No more shaky shifter

 

first you need to set the parking brake and put the transmission in neutral. remove the shifter knob and transfercase knob.


then you remove the 5 phillips head screws holding the console in place. then you remove the 4 black phillips head screws that holds your boots into place.


then you remove the 4 12mm bolts holding the shifter tower into place


next you want to take 2 flat head screw drivers and turn the shifter collar counterclockwise while pushing down.


after it looks when it comes out


then you pull the shifter socket out. make sure you get the rubber gasket too.


out with the old seats in with the new seats



next you can replace the socket. pull it off off and push the new one on


then you can put it back together in reverse

 

Finally got my trail gear front bumper in after 3 weeks and my CB

 

What kinda fabric? i want to do mine in the max4 camo

 

Its just clothing fabric. I got it at a fabric store. I was looking for max4 but not any luck. Just make sure you use good adhesive. I used the locktite brand

 

just testing fitting the front bumper before i weld the light tabs on for the LED light bar.
also painted the grill black.

 

finally got my 20 inch LED light bar. it is double row.



also went and picked up my winch. it is a rugged ridge 8500 with synthetic rope

 

i'm expecting to see you at the upcoming TN meet in OCT!

 

What day and Where at? I will be there. looking forward to seeing your tank

 

Finally got my front bumper, winch and light bar installed.

BRIGHT!!!!

 

Did some wheeling to day with my best friend today 09SR5 at Prentice Cooper

 

got some new tires. 285/75/16 Nitto Trail Grapplers. put them on some 16 inch Oem wheels with 1.25 inch Spidertrax wheel spacers

 

Your truck is looking really good man, the bumper looks awesome on your truck

 

picked up a soft topper for cheap



since I got a soft topper had to figure out another way to mount the jack. so I cam up with this

 

was looking over the Tacoma the other day and found this. looks like rear springs and contacting the rear shocks when flexing. anyone else ran into this?

 

finally got some time to do a little riding
