Great White Taco build

I just blew my duros up after 2 trips out lol, I was at least getting a few years out of the supers. Did yours crack in half like this? Both metal base plates came unbonded too.

 

This was failure #1, about 5 months after installing them, the different layers came apart. It was accepted as a manufacturer error and replaced by them at no cost.

This is the current situation, passenger side is just gone. I noticed it just shy of 3 years from install of the warranty set, not sure exactly when it disappeared.

 

I blew up a couple of them, if you're fully stuffing the suspension you need to go to the 3" version, not the tall 5" version. Also cut your u-bolts just above the nut so they don't hit the frame.

 

Yeah, I suspect they were too tall for the setup, I got yelled at for having the wrong size bumps when we cycled the rear for the lower shock mounts but it never reached the top of the priority list

 

That top pic looks like mine, coming apart at the two layers. They replied quickly and asked for more pics, then radio silence . . .

 

And even now, Wheelers/AllPoo/LowRange have partnered together.. Maybe superbumps arent so bad?

Guy I talked to on ig who partnered with AllPro, says theyre trying to come back better than before.

 

I had a superbump that the rubber separated from the metal puck. And I wouldn’t trust anything from Trailgear anymore

 

I think thats what happened to mine. It just happened when I was right there.

The next set, I think Ill try Archive bumps. I want to get the Deavers on first though.

 

I got superbumps about a year ago from wheelers and I think they work great. No issues yet at least.

 

The slow painful process of wiring..

@Bastek

 

Looking fancy there bud!!

 

Progress even though i hate it

 

More progress pics. Wiring this up so all ill need to do is install the panel, and connect everything. I hope it works and I don't have to troubleshoot.




Super clean braided loom and glue lined heat shrink for even the smallest of wires (22 gauge)

 

Looking good! I would like to mount a solar panel on my Prinsu like this.

 

Isnt that @EatSleepTacos roof? I helped him install that Prinsu.

I think you can do it by using 4 pieces of flatbar and whatever the attachment to get on the 8020 bar, would be. Then just drill into the frame of the solar panel, and definitely use a locknut and not a self tapper.

I used solar Z brackets, they put the panel slightly above the 8020, so I couldnt use the rack as a rack. If you do the flat bar way, and your panel is thinner than the 8020, then you could still load things on top.

 

Yep! Plan is to have the panel lower than the 8020. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...racks-bs-thread.317754/page-546#post-26874442

 

If youre interested I have that same 30A solar controller that I just pulled off of my truck. Id sell it to you for very cheap (like $10 + shipping).

I was going to gather a bunch of other things that I dont have a use for anymore, and make a $10 sale page. Let me know!

 

We have power! No errors either. About to throw fridge in and pack up to meet @AR15xAR10

still need to do a little wire management, but 97% done

 

Put that MF in the wind and get your ass up here, we got camping to do

 

Hurry up to wait! I might be old man status and pass out at 930pm hopefully not
