Matt's Long Travel Prerunner build

if i had lights i'd roll out with you guys. all i have right now are my heallights and those won't cut it on a night run

 

Just surround the jager machine with hydro bumps so you're good over the whoops

 

nah man, you need to tune then for different terrain, so you'd need the icon omegas

 

gahhh! you're right!!

 

anything and everything... i have a grand plan for the truck, but also life shit to deal with too...

the wife and i are working on the mini person mod, so that's going to cut into the build funds a lot, but once i'm done with school and not working as a personal trainer anymore i'll be making some good money either back in the military killing fools or working for a law enforcement agency fucking shit up

 

Matt, I never found out why you have gone through so many bumpers

 

cuz i'm fucking cool like that...

my original tube bumper was good, but i wanted a bit more protection from it. also wanted to try out the stock bumper again for a sleeper look... didn't look so good before, i think now with the even ride height and all one color it would looks fucking sick.

but my current tube bumper is legit. adam added extra skid protection under the radiator and also mounted a cross brace between the front LCA mounts. big improvement over the 1st one

 

we need to drink together

 

work for Monterey Park PD so they can stop mean mugging my house when I have parties

 

we do need to party

i'm not going to work for a local PD, more power to the guys that do but i dont want to be a babysitter. i'm going to go federal and do the cool kind of work

 

don't have it...

 

how good of wear are you gettin outta those GG?

 

very good tread wear. all tires have even tread and my alignment is way off

 

Matt, truck is looking really nice! Love the bumper Adam did for ya. Just got my mid travel setup and now I'm itching for long travel...thanks. I got a bitchin led bar that would just finish off your front end.

 

thanks man, i'm really happy with how it's coming along too.

PM'd you about the light bar

 

his bars are nice matt

 

I thought we couldn't get them anymore?

 

he has a couple left

 

I can still order them...change em up slightly to avoid patent issues.
I was doing some research last night with China and might be bringing in some small ambers for anyone that might wanna do the "raptor" look on the front grill.
Also looking into some side mirrors with led turn signals like the 2012 tacomas.

 

I made a mockup of LEDs on a bar to replicate the Raptor lights in my '11 grill, came out well just need to wire it. I'd be interested to see what you've got coming tho..



Hey Matt did you ever think of putting part of your bumper back on with the new front end you got? I want to do something like that when I get to my bumper. Kinda like how Ray did his bumper with KR. Looks like ythe top part of your OEM bumper that is Red would fit based on this side shot. Might look sick! Just an idea
