Matt's 2006 Tacoma 4x4 LT Build

I picked up some goodies recently.



Here is the new jack and mount. Its going in the toolbox so it doesn't walk away or corrode too bad.





Here are the new wheels. These are the only black wheels that I haven't seen too much on silver LT tacos. Walkers, Robby Gs, Enduro etc are everywhere.





Here is the diamond in the rough. The TRD supercharger for the 4.0 Tacoma. Its going to be sold soon.

I want to keep it so bad but I cant justify keeping it after the rear LT build even though I got a great deal on it brand new on EBay. Having this without gears is kind of pointless anyway or so I tell myself.

 

^^^ya what Mike said, more info on the jack mount.

 

Krawltex Motorsports in Texas did the jack mount. Its pretty beefy and made for this jack. The jack is a Ranger jack. I didn't want to go craftsman due to price/issues I hear about and I wasn't sure about the autozone jack so I tried this ranger. We will see over time how it does.

Here is the link for the ranger jack

Are those the Chambers?

 

Yes they are 16x8 ATX Chambers with 4.5 back spacing.

 

Haha, awesome, I just put them on my truck Monday

I think yours looks a little better though

Edit: Dont want to litter your thread with my truck

 

Haha. Not better just built for way different purposes.

 

Haha, its way better, I know it, I hope to go LT, so the susp is just temporary, had to get rid of the spacer lift. But after finding out how much I got back with taxes I wish I woulda just bit the bullet and bought the damn kit. haha. Very jealous of your truck though.

 

how much you gonna sell the s/c for? or will you ebay it?

 

Its probably sold to someone local but if it falls thru I will post it in the classifieds here and every other site for $3000 or so without fit kit.

 

I have been busy with my truck lately. I had some fun installing parts and some headache fixing things that I did not anticipate having to bother with.

I had to install these Hella horns for when my trophy truck comes through.



I fixed my bump stops and made some bigger strike pads. These bumps are a lot less angled than the previous version. Im hoping to test this week.






I also had to disassemble my King coil overs do due oil loss while rotating resi fitting. I can say that its not hard to disassemble a shock down to the individual parts but it does take some time. I feel a lot better about it now. Now a re-valve is just a few hours work away.

I cant say enough good things about Sonny at Downsouth Motorsports and the crew at King. I got the references I needed and I was able to fix my shocks without having to send them off. Its a good feeling.

 

cool man cant wait till you make it down

 

The king rebuild wasnt too difficult? I have a leaker that I need to fix ASAP

 

That is a solid build man. Nice work.

Talked to tim at dmz and he said he could get me a deal on the TC kit. so if it comes out less than the Engage kit I'll go with that.

I guess the alignment problems my bro in law had was due to his cams or somethin.

Anyways, Nice truck, hope mine turns out at least close to yours

 

I knocked out some work and my truck and thought I would share.
