Ice Horse's 1998 Tacoma Long Travel/Hybrid Project

More progress! Front clip back in, bed back on, everything tightened. It's looking like a truck again! Also flexed it out. I'm quite impressed! Super excited to be at this point!

 

here from FB got a few pages to read through

 

Awesomeness!
Did you cut the factory mounts for the tail lighys when you did the bedsides? I want to do some fiberglass on mine eventually and I have some trail damage causing my drivers side tail light to be off ever so slightly and it bugs the crap out of me. Also please send more truck nudes?

 

Checked the weight so far, out of curiosity.



Factory is 3430

Just in case you wanted to guess...

Spoiler

it's 3600 on the nose

 

Yes you do have to cut off some of the light supports on the back. There was a write up I followed that helped. I'll see if I can find it for you later on.

And haha thanks! I'll try to send as many truck nudes as possible! Haha!

 

Found it! This is the guide we used. http://www.off-road.com/trucks-4x4/project536.html

little teaser



And scored some black junkyard doors. They cleaned up well.

 

Planning to make half doors?

 

Not yet, just going to keep these as spares for now.

 

For the first time some asshole clips her side while racing. Rebuildable

 

Better not touch me LOL But yes, this is true haha

 

Truck got some new spark plugs and spark plug wires, so should be happier.

 

Putting in a lot of work to get the truck ready for the event this weekend. Should have lots of pics and updates then!
