First Tacoma, First Toyota, First Truck Build

Build looks great man. Methods look really good on there. How do you like those Coopers for everyday use and off-roading. Pic after the wash is super shiny. What clay bar and wax are u using? Thanks

 

Thanks alot, I appreciate it! I absolutely love my Coopers, will buy them again and probably again. I believe I used meguiars, I'll double check tomorrow.

 

sub'd!

Are those mirrors the non painted black ones? or are they color matched?

 

Thanks man! and yes they are the color matched.

 

Nice truck!
How did U luck out with the 2011 grill?

 

Thank you! The PO swapped it for whatever reason.

 

Took off the camper for the month

Because Christmas trees.

 

Where did you buy the 5100's and Toytech springs from? I'm looking to do almost the same thing as you have done. How was the install on all of it also?

 

Are your coopers Load E, and are you on stock gears?

 

I bought them from a member off here. As far as install, it was simple if you know what you're doing.

Yes they are and I am still on stock gears.

 

What kind of gas mileage did you lose and does it feel sluggish? Mine feels extremely sluggish now

 

A few MPGs as far as gas mileage but power, theres no difference on the streets. Only time I notice it is hills and towing.

 

Hmmm, cause the power doesn't seem like its there on the streets as much, and the braking is as if I am towing a trailer.

 

Over the past week I noticed the difficulty in backing up to a trailer solo in the dark, so I upgraded reverse lights and wanted some work lights too. So added some LED/Amber pods.
Reverse lights.

What size you running and V6?

 

They are 285/70/17 BFGs KO2, and yes its a V6

 

Hmm. I'm not sure then.

 

Added enough lights to contact aliens

 

Went from rats nest, to nice and organized.

 

Been a while since I've updated. Just installed new headlights.
