1999 Tacoma SR5 TRD Imperial Jade Build, Sweat and Tears

I need to see what I can do to wet sand it all uniform. Since the clear has peeled in different stages its kinda blotchy.

 

less than 7k since changed rear diff
guess i need to get out wheelin' it more than i have recently LoL

 

Take it to Moab!

 

Attempting to level this out. Starting with some old 1200 wet sandpaper and it seemed too aggressive, I switched over to the 3m burgundy scour pad.

 

i do need to make a stop at Alcan Springs in Grand Junction...somewhat close to that Utah racket

 

Not the greatest but a little better. Will probably make one more pass, I want to avoid burning through. I think no matter what its not going to be perfect.


Went to the junkyard and pulled a fan controller for my electric fan install. Not sure why I bought such a crappy one but I didnt want to leave empty handed. These are even the ones that were recalled so I guess we'll see what happens. These are supposed to be a soft start so they dont hit the electrical system with a ton of amps.

 

I might be back over there in 2 weeks

 

Been taking a break from taking photos and just working.

Filler neck leak tested, painted and mounted. Its tight but both caps work.
