Slodgetto's Green Dragon 4x4 Conversion Build

I've been trying to figure out what i wanted to do about that doing that for sure.

 

That's a great idea I ended up using a reservoir from an 1987 Toyota Pickup and put it in front of the air box.

 

Nice, man! Looks like a good option if you haven't done the deck plate mod...

 

Yeah, I was thinking of relocating it to another location so I could do the deck plate mod but I've been too lazy haha

 

I had made the same design over a year ago.. I still haven't installed it... It's sitting fully ready to go just... lazy Looks good!

Ps... Get some black zip ties please

 

Check Jon's build too. Think that's where Silas got the idea. He did it a tad different but think Jon's has mor capacity.

 

lol...... Actually, that's kinda how this one went as well. I've had that black elbow glued together for several months now.

nahh....no need for black zip-ties, the skid plate will cover it.

Jon's set-up is sweet! I chose a more basic set-up, and routed the filler neck on the opposite side of the radiator. There are actually quite a few tacomas running similar set-ups...

And while Jon's is sexier, mine is bigger. Almost two times more capacity, actually........ lol

 

Haha, well it'll be changing again here soon. Gonna make one a little more compact and one where I can see how much is left.

 

Nice, man.... So, see-through, huh, what material do you want to use?

 

No sure yet, may go with the Nalgene bottle technique haha

 

It's over rated. My stock one doesn't tell me when it's low. My light is always on

 

I was looking for that picture on TTORA just now!!!!!

 

Cut the wire for the low fluid sensor, fixed!

 

Cut the 2 wires to the sensor... Jon did that on his and it did the trick. I still need to do that...

 

I might do that when I make my PVC resi

 

I've been finding a lot of small "carnage" stuff from Moab...

Had to replace the driver inner TRE which was bent, the big 'D' steering rack poly bushing that was badly torn, replaced one of the front diff arms since one of those bushings blew, and now I have to replace the rear pinion seal (again).

Wonder how all that happened... it's not like I abused my truck








oh, and finally fixed my fenders....... cut another half inch out since the tires were still making meals out of them. Instead of folding back the tabs further, I decided to cut everything off and cover the sharp edge with electrical tape. Took me a bit to get used to it, but I think I like it. Kinda miss the rounded edge though...

 

Use the trim they have for the leading edge of doors. I picked up some at O'reilly's like two years ago, still haven't put it on.

 

Hmmm... Well, hurry up and let me know how it works! Saw a jeep come into work with some sort of trim on his cut fenders and it looked like it was falling off.... might be cause he did a pretty rough cut job, though... then in Moab, I noticed the Low-Range Off-Road taco on 35s used electrical tape on the edges. (That's where I got the idea) sooo, yeah, get going, jon.

 

I would but I keep cutting the fenders back! haha

here's the edging I got
