ImMrYo Mirror relocation bracket, ultragauge, auto-dim Mirror


Black Magic Pro controller for BlackVue dashcam


extra switches and connectors etc.

 

I already spied the front cv's so what 4wd conversion you referring to?

 

found the archived photos online, updated the 2nd post

I'll also have to fab some stuff when I get home.

 

luka, trucks looking good! lots changed since i last seen it. you making it to the meet this coming weekend? definetely want to check it all out.

 

Damn this is going in a awesome direction

 

I've been slacking on updating

I should be there for a couple hours at least

I'm thrilled how well it's coming along too.

 

Trip to Kaena Point to test out the 4-month old lift


BAMF'd


behind-the-grill light bar, relocated horns


cleaned tires after playing in the sand

 

picked up second battery, wired up nice and pretty...probably a good time for a beer.

wired



checking status



linked up and charging

 

Nice build page! I need to check out the new rubber you put on the truck. I think I will probly go with that tire size net go around

 

cleaned and painted the transfer-case, inching ever closer to the big day. probably keep it stock and wired until an FJ t-case shows up...







I caved and gave up on trying to fit the over-sized fancy Zeon enclosure.

probably re-do the mounting bracket but i'm pretty happy with the fitment.



just about out of space

 

42 DD oil catch can finally found a home

 

Did you sell the icon suspension off of the donor truck?

 

Great looking truck man!

 

Nope, didn't touch it. In retrospect, I probably should have, but that wasen't part of the agreement.

Thanks! Just a few more things to do

 

One sweet ass truck! haha, love it! Keep it up
