TacoMeSir's Appalachian Build

Yep, and just another idea, tighten your u bolts to 85 ft/lbs., it's easy to forget, other than that good luck!

 

Sweet! Thanks!

 

Finally snapped a pic of the Bumper installed. I'm dig'n it. Also while I was at it I headed over to local Toyota dealer and picked up a color matched grill. Not a fan of the chrome one. Now just waiting on the Skids and Rigid's. Hopefully welding up the Pelfreybilt Sliders this afternoon. Wish me luck!

 

Looks great, Tyler makes a damn good looking bumper!

 

Bumper looks good!

One thing to weigh and keep in mind with a one-piece driveshaft, it will be more prone to get down in the rocks when wheeling.

Whatcha doing with the old grill?

 

Gotcha on the drive shaft thought. I am going to ask those guys about possibilities with the current setup. Not sure on the grill. Through it back in the box the new one came in.

Looking all kinds of sexy in here

 

Took a better shot of the bumper at the Lake yesterday.

 

Nice! Thanks Tyler!

 

I gotta say, this Pelfreybilt koozie is awesome. I highly encourage getting one for your collection. It's one of a kind! God bless America!

 

Eye spy Sweetwater. Cool place but wasn't a fan of their brews.

 

Yeah, the brewery is cool. Not all of the brews are good IMO. I am a major fan of their IPA though. It's hella fresh around these parts and I am good with supporting a local brewery all day long. Awesome you know of them. Not many folks do.

 

I was in ATL for a wedding last August and the reception was held there. Cool stuff but I'm a light beer drinker and nothing pertained to me. The blueberry brew they had was rather weird as well.

 

Yeah, they do some seasonal brews that are ineresting to say the least. If you are a light beer drinker, it can be challanging to have a good beer there. They do not offer a light beer at all. I, however, am a IPA connoisseur so for me their IPA is one of the best. I'm well traveled around the country and have had many an IPA. Sweetwater has a damn good one. Dogfish Head and Harpoon are good also. Some of the IPAs out there are nasty though and give you a headache in the AM.

 

Finally got some time to do some trail riding today up in the N GA Mtns. Got the rear flexed out and front stuffed to see what it will do with the 255's. Looks like it has no problem.

 

So I got the Rigid Duallies mounted up in the Pelfreybilt bumper. Haven't done that kind of stuff since HS. HAHA! Good Times. I've decided I am going to run a acc switch bank up in my spare sun glasses holder. So in the mean time while I order up the parts for this mod, I went ahead and mounted the switch they came with in a temp spot that can be replaced for cheap. Any of you guys know of a good site for Acc switches and wiring distribution blocks?

 

Check out OTRATTW.com for switches. And there's a few options for a fuse block. SPOD ($$$$$), Blue Sea Fuse Block ($$) and a few others that I can't remember off the top of my head.

 

Nice! You da man! Thanks for the info. Being an IT Guy by trade, I'm kinda anal about my wiring being neat and labeled. BTW, I owe you an email addy about the grill. Been slackin on that I know.

 

No worries, got enough projects right now to keep me busy.

As far as the Rigid's in the bumper, I cut the stock fog light harness just behind the plug and spliced in the Rigid connectors there. Allowed me to use the factory switch/relay that wasn't going to be used otherwise.

 

Yuh know, I was wondering being that the power draw was different, if that would work. Glad to know you have already done it. That's the ticket then. Thanks for that info!
