Gear Head's Silver 2000 TRD Build

Buy a bike. SAS the truck. Now. lol

 

That's funny, I was wanting a bike but what to do in the rain?? The guy that has the tires also has a driver drop d44 and d60 out of a ramcharger he would cut me a deal on...

 

Do ittttt

 

We'll see. Gotta buy a ring after the house

 

Nooooooooo

 

Ha yup, the ol ball and chain is coming

 

sell all your IFS stuff to this poor guy! Okay, thanks EDDY

 

I just read through your entire build. I don't know why I wasn't following this before now?!

Anyway, Great job on the rear shock relo. I think that is my next major mod.

How long did it take you total to install the cbi hood light brackets?

Good luck on the potential home purchase! I am 9 years into a 30 year mortgage and im 31. Best decision I ever made. Try to avoid PMI if at all possible.

Im def. subbing your build! Great job!

 

I'll def keep that in mind if I start cutting!

Thanks man! The brackets weren't bad at all, maybe 45 min total? What sucked was I had to cut mine to get them to fit. I started a thread in CBI's vendor section and they modified the design to make them more universal so if you order them now you should be good. And I'm really excited about the house! I think I'm going to put in an offer tomorrow. I would love to avoid PMI but I don't have 20% to put down.. I have a really good credit score so for me PMI would be $55 a month which isn't terrible. My monthly mortgage payment would be around $845

And the rear isn't quite done. I still need to move my lower shock mounts up since I'm almost at full extension now and I haven't even done shackles yet. I plan on taking the overload out when I do the shackles and I should stay at about the same height in the rear but get ~2-3" more droop

 

Playing in a little bit of snow

 

Whoa! How do you do the ghostly floating halo ring mod like so in the third pic??? Looks legit!

 

Haha everytime I take a pic of them those show up. Look at the led pods, they do it too

 

My lightbar does it too haha

 

I guess my lee bar just isn't cool enough

 

looking good my friend

 

Thanks man! So would you have room to maybe bring some sliders to the meet for me? I'll have to see how this house shopping goes but I'd like to get some in the next few months

 

Yeah man. They are projector retrofits from The Retrofit Source. I have the mini h1's and they just bolt through the existing hole in the back of the housing. Comes with projectors, shrouds, bulbs, ballast, and a wiring harness with relay. I also opted for halos.

They have an ongoing group buy on here that gets you a pretty good discount.

Also if you look a few pages back I posted a lot of pics of the retro. Starts on page 4

 

Looks great! Hoping to do my headlights in the near future!

 

Go for it! Just read up on everything first, it was really simple though
