209 TACOS - B/S and shenanigans

Cut to length


Laid out

The pain in the ass cuts are done.

 

Holy shit, dude. Those look good.

 

Had the work on some other stuff around the house, and run some errands... But back at it now.

 

Matt gettin' down.

 

Hey that looks great Matt. You thingy is sticking out of your other thingy! Your hammerin down. Awesome work!

 

Made some re-inforcement for the back side of the bumper around the receiver.

 

Looking good!

 

End caps done ✔️

 

Mocked up the bumper and got the measurements for the slots that will saddle the frame brackets. (Frame brackets will be 3 inch x 1/2 bar stock)

Also cut the posts for the swing out.


Posts are notched so the back side can be a full weld all the way down the back of the bumper.



Pretty sure the posts aren't going to sag.

 

Are those going to be vertical when the bumper is mounted or am I missing something?

Edit: nevermind. they are for the swingout.

 

Matt's laying the smack down in some metal Workin!

 

Good morning 209 tacomaworld, any rides to the hills anytime soon?

 

Working on plans for my next project, powered by my brain food

 

The drawer looks like this when closed, then an upper set of locking drawer slides will open the upper section to reveal the cooktop and sink. The whole drawer system is 56” and will slide out on full extension sliders, then the upper storage slides out as well

I bought this cooktop and sink which is hugely popular over in Europe for its compact size and utility. But they are really hard to find here

The end cut shows how the sliders work on the inside of the storage compartment, kind of like the monorail at Disneyland

 

I need longer you bolts to get my shims on. What would you guys recommend?

 

First, I recommend a ubolt flip kit from wheelers. Then just go ahead and add new wheelers rear superbumps.

 

I second this.

 

Thirdsies.

 

Super bumps huh. Suuuuper. Are they super?

 

Yep me four!
