yes its the weld on budbuilt.

Tomorow I will check out what shipping is going to cost and we will see if its even worth it for you.

 

great! thanks chris

 

Great looking truck! I saw it at ryan's shop a year or so ago. looks like it has made some nice progress.

 

Thanks man. Glad to see there actually is another toyota in the sea of rangers up there. What was getting done when you saw it? Have I met you before?

 

I think you might have met my buddy Tom Knight?? Thats how i know Ryan. I cant remember what was getting done. it was sitting out front of his old shop and Tom called me out to look at it.

 

Ok I know Tom.

Do you wheel your truck? We will have to get you out with us some time.

 

A little bit, starting to get in to it more and more. We try to make it up to Silver lake every so often. Do you guys wheel anywhere else?

 

We go to alot of different places. I actually only do silver lake a few times a year. We also go to the Badlands, Bundy hill, and a few places down my way. I also plan on trying to get out to Rocks and valleys this year and possibly a few other places.

Here is our pics from our groups facebook page:

 

Here is some video from a few weekends ago at the dunes. Suspension did well but my clutch decided to finally give up.

Ive been pretty busy on other things and not alot of truck motivation, but have gotten some things done.

Picked up a new clutch:

Changed up my front bumps, still need to chave them alittle but no hard bottoms:


Also added some rear facing lights. Not sure how I feel about the placement but its the perfect spot for function:

 

Just went thru your build and all I have to say is WOW! lol Youve built an awesome taco and I now have some ideas for what may be in my trucks future. Cant wait to see where else you go with this!

 

Thanks man. I still have alot planned for the truck, I just have been really busy this year between work and other projects. Just like everything else its just a matter of time/ motivation / money .

 

Well its time to get things going again on the truck. Picked up plugs and wires, fluids, and some misc other stuff to get it back where it should be.

Also picked up these to get the build back moving:

 

Those seats look nice and comfy!

How did you remove your stock front bumpstops? I tried to remove them a while back and I was unable to get them to budge at all.

 

i love those corbeaus!

 

Thanks guys.

should be able to remove your bumps with a big pair of chanel locks or wrench. Just hit the threads with WD-40 for a few days if you are strugling.

 

I guess I wasn't trying hard enough lol. Maybe I'll try again this weekend

 

Put the seats in. Ended using the Corbeau specific brackets with double locking sliders. This way I can keep the wife happy for now, at least till the cage is finished and they get mounted in a fixed position. I also had to loose the center console, the seats were just to wide.

 

How do you like the new seats (so far)?

 

I love the seats. Havn't driven much but they are were comfortable in the ride I took. The only thing that I don't like is that I had to ditch the center console. I think I am going to build a new console that will also serve as a sub box. Probably just a downfiring 10.
