BassAckwards' AWD Turbo 2TR-FE

Blue Dog Designworks 3D printed cup holder came in yesterday. Got the AWD shifter relocated this morning. I cut it off, moved it back about 1.5” and rotated the stick so it wouldn’t interfere with the console/cupholder. Feels like I must have test fit it 50 times, but it turned out pretty nice. I have about 1/4” of clearance at the front and rear in high unlocked and low locked. Time to seal up the floor, get some sound deadener for the cupholder, and build a wire to hold the rear upper boot.

here’s some pics of the cupholders. I’m really pleased with the quality, it fits great other than needing to trim the stock console a little. Uses the yellow factory clips to stay in place too!

That came out nice!

 

Wow

 

It's a beautiful piece.

 

Thanks fellas! Pretty happy with how it’s turning out. Just need to sort out the last shift boot and then hopefully this project will be drawing to a close. Im tracking down a leak between the trans and crawl box now lol. Hoping it was just some fluid that got past the trans output when I was stabbing it into the motor. Looking like it might be coming back out though

 

That's when you really get to enjoy it. Once the building stops.

 

I look forward to that day. It would be awesome to get these leaks sorted

 

Placement looks great

 

Thank you sir

 

Nice

 

Thanks amigo!

 

Got the boot finished and installed today. I used some spare wire I had from a 6MT Fj cruiser boot to build a wire for the 3D printed cupholder. Tig welded a couple of pieces together and it fit pretty well. At that point I handed it over to my mom and she made the A/T Fj cruiser shift boot fit on the wire I made. I used some

$8 3M VHB 100x200mm~ (4" X8") Double Sided Foam Adhesive Sheet Tape 5952 Automotive Mounting Industrial Grade Very High Bond 5952 (1 Sheets 100x200mm)

3M VHB tape to hold it to the bottom of the console. Looking back, I should have asked for some tabs to be 3D printed around the cutout for the wire. Pretty happy with how it turned out though!

 

That looks absolutely amazing. So impressed with how this came out!

 

Thanks a bunch Patrick!! I appreciate the kind words

 

Reinstalled the camper today, then I took the passenger window apart and made a template for the front one, which I broke a few months ago. Also ordered some tinted Lexan so I can make my own window to repair that. The goal is to have this thing usable again for cheaper than what a dealer wants for the entire side window

 

Looking good
If this cupholder becomes available to sell to the rest of us I encourage you to forward the request of tabs to the manufacturer

 

Agreed.

 

I may end up doing this sooner than later and just buy another one. Everything is nice except the VHB. That is already bothering my ocd

 

Replacement lexan window is in. Turned out pretty nice for $140 bucks in parts

 

But can you see it???
