Colinb17's kinda sorta build thread - now with 4-link and long travel

He clearly should offer a satoshi version instead of flush mount

 

I like! Snap a pic at night for us.

You still need to paint those snorkel studs

 

lol, more powah!

gah! that hadn't bothered me until now lol.

 

That's exactly what I did except 3 of the slits went too far and then the in-cab pool mod happened. I'd line the inside with some of that seam weld toyota uses in case you go too far in any way.

 

Haha, so that turned out to be the leak you were talking about?

 

That's what I was just wondering as well. Haven't heard back from him since this weekend to know if he found it or not.

 

Yea it's good now. Kinda interesting cause I had to take out all the carpet and stuff under it then threw my weathertechs back in and it doesn't look much different except for a wire here and there almost like the interior of a tank. Cab noise doesn't seem to have gotten worse or better either. So be extra careful in cutting the pinch weld unless you want the in-cab pool mod, which smells after a while...

 

Next time you come to my side if town I have some stuff you can spray that should help with the smell. It's a foam that's meant for that.

 

Link to the bullet tag lights?

EDIT: found them.

See above

 

for rear bumpa plans

 

yep, those are the lights.

 

got started on the rock lights today. got the control box and distribution box set up and wired. slapped some silicone on the lights too, just to make sure no water gets in where the wires inter the housing. just have to install the lights and rout their wires tomorrow.

controller is in the little cubby where my auxiliary cable and usb charger are located. it came with a key fob style remote too





filled up my last spot in the blue sea fuse box, but i have a plan to free up two spots with a reroute of the power for my cameras and monitor.

 

Your wiring just took a shit on my wiring job

 

it didn't used to look like that. it was a complete mess until a few months ago when i spend a good day and a half organizing and rewiring half of the stuff i have hooked up

 

Vision x rock lights?

I just cut all the wires so I could wire them up to a switch. I also used the mounting brackets that ricochet offroad makes. I couldn't find a good way to mount them out of harms way without them. But some angle aluminum and good adhesive could do the same.

 

Yeah, the Vision-X. Looks good on your truck

I think i'm going to use the control box it came with so i still get all of the features. I may splice into the wires coming out of the control box though to hook into the dome light. it'd be nice to have them come on when you unlock the truck at night

I scouted out where i want to mount the lights and thing i have 6 of them figured out using just the 3M I have. only two i haven't really figured out yet are the front most ones. where did you mount those?

 

I had mine on the bumper wings

 

i think i might do that if i can place them back far enough. the front and underside of my wings have been taken quite the beating recently. 35s should help keep me off of the bottom of the wings though
