Trevneel's Truck Build

7/20

This is my 2001 Xtra cab Prerunner (2.7L...) as it sits today. Got it Christmas of 2014 as my present/project. Dad bought it for $4,500 with 123k miles with a lot of work to be done...

Dad said we're gonna paint this ASAP! Christmas night I began to take everything apart for sanding and prep work.

Love the color

How did you do the lightning in the bumper ?

Installed wheeler's 4 pack $550 I believe
Looking back I wish I did a Deaver pack or not even touch the springs at all... The wheeler's have been a pain because the driver side is stiffer than the passenger so I needed a 1/2" block to compensate the difference.

 

I forgot when I installed my 2" spacer... well before the leaf springs

(Truck is off the ground BTW)
I was done with the spacer so I dropped $900 for FOX 2.0's Installed them myself in 50 Mins
Love them! Selling them with in the next few weeks/months for Bigger c/o's

Bought Built Right UCA's from The Truck Shop. $550 out the door
Got an aliment and it felt smoother because the tires were on the ground much more betta

 

9/17/16

With FOX 2.0's and Built Right UCA's
Tires are 275/70R16 (they came with the truck)

Black diamond jeep trail. In a 2WD with open dif
Good thing my Dad had his 2005 4x4 Durmax

 

12/8/16
32" LED light bar $36 Amazon and $12 for wire harness

The bar is 31.5" long which happens to be the distance of the outsides of the frame. I got Aluminum 90 degree stuff that was laying around and bolted it to the bar and screwed into the frame.

People have no idea it's there. Unless I turn it on

Plasti Dipped badges and rims

Next up TIRES!

 

You need to look into a rear axle swap with one that has a trd locker in it! I am still looking around for one to get for mine. Open diff sucks compaired to a locker

Toyo AT2 265/75R16 load range C
$150 a tire $650 out the door at ORW for all 4
Had them Installed at Ramona Tire since I have a lifetime alignment over there
$170 for install, alignment, and lifetime for rotation and Balance
$820....

Took rear mud flaps off

since this is a 4 banger the 32's took some power away sadly... but it's worth the look IMO

Next mod that's not done yet is Led light pods in the old blinker location and blinker relocation mod
Then rear Led light pods for backup (and tail gaters) in the rear bumper.

 

I Know!!
I've heard it'd cost close to 1k from junk yard
But that's one on the list for sure

Maybe ARB? Not sure yet...

 

Yes exactly
I knew that before purchasing but never know for sure until you try it...

 

Thanks Bro!
I really tried to make sure it didn't look like a Caltrans Truck

 

Ive seen people get them as low as 100$ off a wrecked truck!

 

I know what my next project is...

 

Also check out TJM air lockers. Summit just had them on sale for ~$600 for the 8.4 diff.
