2003 Long Travel Double Cab 4x4LongWeiney

Any pics with bedsides on it?

 

nope, haven't bought any yet. if the pic below works, this truck is owned by the guy who did my back half, and is the inspiration for mine.

 

Nice, it looks good! I'm wanting to eventually stretch the wheelbase of my dbl cab also, debating on going with the regular size bed or what I'm leaning towards right now is bobbing the front and rear of a regular bed to keep the wheel well centered but keep the shorty bed length of the dbl cab.

 

Sounds like a shit ton of work to gain a few inches of wheelbase.

 

DIY headliner. Bought some 2" foam from a fabric store, cut it to fit, and wrapped it in headliner material. It's not perfect but it's better than nothing.

 

This is how tacomas should have come out of the factory.

 

Seems your pictures aren't loading. Have any more pictures of your cage? Ones with the dash tore out.

 

I've been dealing with a leak from the Trail Gear hub caps that I originally had for my rear hubs. After trying different o-rings, RTV, and trans-x to make the o-rings swell, I gave up. I found that Currie Enterprises offer the same style hub, and use a hub cap with a much more robust o-ring seal. The Currie cap seals to the outer hub face as opposed to the Trail Gear cap which seals inside the hub body. The Currie set up also includes new drive slugs that are threaded so that you actually bolt the hub caps on and torque them down to create a tight seal instead of using a little snap ring on the Trail Gear units. Thanks to the guys at SDHQ, I had the new caps, drive slugs, and hardware on my doorstep within 24 hours.

Also thanks to Brennan at Baja Designs, I finally have a RTL-S that I've been bugging him about since the Offroad Expo last September. I liked their original design, but hounded them about building one that has the amber lights separate from the brake lights. They delivered, and I finally bought one at their 25th anniversary the other weekend.

Photobucket ruined their business. They changed their policy so you have to pay to have your pics work on forums. No pics of the cage uploaded to Flickr, but imagine a tube that goes under the windshield, kind of like the stock dash mount, but different.

 

The guys at Camburg got me set up with some Advanced/ Glassworks bedsides. Had the day off so I got them mounted reusing the old mounts from the short bedsides

 

Looks killer man what size flair?

 

Your running 14" coilover and 16" bypasses right?

ya

 

Got some L Track and ratchet straps to be able to secure things in my storage box.


Got some new tail lights and redid the wiring with nice weather pack connectors. Glassworks cut the tail light mount tabs too small so (as is usual with offroad fiberglass) I'll have to fix them.

Dirtskum is going to make me a nice center console out of aluminum

Fuck that thing looks Bitchen. Way better than mine

What did that run ya?

 

Man that is gorgeous

 

Looking good bud.

 

How long before someone else puts it in 4hi instead of using the trans shifter?

Looking good, get it Power coated before the soft aluminum collects to many scratches.
