FINALLY GOT ONE!

That goes mounted on the back side of the plastic that goes back and forth as you move the shift lever.

It rotates as you move your shift lever to the sides.

Kind of hard to explain not sure if its understandable .....

 

ok so i need some help here got the fenders and bedsides. the first problem...bedsides are the wrong size. second problem is installing the front fenders having a little bit of trouble but mostly want to make sure im on the right track anyway here are some pics


keep in mind i didnt move the fender while taking the pics
so heres the front where it lines up notice it doesnt hit the hole or the headlight mount


heres the back side it does hit the hole right by the rain drip


heres right at the door jam


and the ones from the front and side of the light....its killing me cant get it lined up right please someone help me wtf!!!

 

Heres a lil teaser shot of next upgrade....

 

Hey you guys I came across some 35's and was wondering if I can fit them wth a three in ome lift. Not worried about the rear seeing how the bed is off and were buying a flat bed and can work around them. But what about the front I have glassworks flares will they have enough room ya think

 

Not going to happen with a 3" lift and those rims-- fenders or not.

You'll need some more aggressive backspacing to push the 35's out

 

Hmmm looks like I'd either need spacers or just ditch the Idea and such it up and buy 33 I wonder if I wold even need a lift for the 33's I know they would fit with a three In lift though

 

Ok so now friends my teaser shots please anyone feel free to offer input I'll take any advice I can get

 

Anyone got any input about spacing the wheels out right now they don't hit during the mock up but just to be mostly just curious

 

I'd invest in a new set of tires ASAP. Those ones you have look quite low on tread and look like they were run overinflated for quite a long period of time.

Nice to see you bringing the truck back.

 

Yeah I'm for sure working on that ASAP probably do the tires and lift at the same time I'm thinking

 

How did you get these in black? I've only ever seen the bronze TRD wheel...did you get them powder coated?

Rob

 

if ya decide to run those wheels without the chrome ring i'll buy them from you. just pm me.

other than that nice work so far

 

I got the Toyota hook up lol..... Did I actually score cool points on tacoma world??? This calls for a beer


Hey also how do you guys feel about the toyotec blister lift kit for 1100 doesn't seem too bad

 

Sorry man they might be fake as crappie but Love the look of them

 

i love the look of mine with the ring too. mine are just scratched to heck with curbs. that's one thing i'll warn ya about. they stick out kinda far.

 

OK so here's an update I got 285's mounted on my black trd wheels don't have pics yet I'm picking them up Thursday however I won't leave you guys hanging........

Threw the tool box up just to see what it would look like you its a guy thing...







Right now it's just tacked. There is still trimming to be done deburring grinding capping ends off grinding welds basically a lot of work but the hard parts done. Now I wanna hear opinions on a bumper my friends say just put a plate to cover up the massive hole above the hitch then mount the lights in that. What do you guys think? I have plenty of 2x6 tubing and 2x2 and 1x1 left maybe for a rack or something too.....

 

I would remove the hitch, box the frame, and weld some tube between the frame ends with an integrated hitch for a rear bumper. If you could recess the lights into the tube even better. If you really wanted to get fancy you could triangulate the hitch/bumper portion but I don't know how it would affect the spare tire (if your planning on keeping it there)

Kinda like this-->https://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&...jICQCg&ved=0CCUQwg4oAA&biw=1242&bih=647&dpr=1
Looks great so far

 

Whilst I believe in doing what you can with what you got...All I see here Lack of a plan. I hope it works out for you, but often....fabrication work on a vehicle in a muddy humid yard will yield mediocre results. I mean if u want it to be a mediocre beater- battle truck then no worries. Keep on Keepin on, but to truly build something that will last...you kinda gotta have a plan of attack. What I see here is a weekend of drinking, and a welder.

Seriously no offense dude, but I look at this and cringe. Not just to be an ass.. but because im looking at less-than thought out procedure.

 

No offense but we did plan and I appreciate constructive criticism however I do not appreciate just plain bashing like I said it is not done and unless you have a CONSTRUCTIVE comment sit back and watch and shut the first up. Don't like it don't comment. Now politely shut your mother f....... OK back in topic


IT'S NOT DONE ALL THE SMALL MINDED PEOPLE NEED NOT COMMENT.
