Mlcc 02 DC build thread

And my rock lights these are going to be mounted on the pinch weld.

 

Loving the thread. Keep it going. I'm particularly interested in the Tundra brakes and whatever you did to keep the 285 Coopers from rubbing.

 

The brakes are going on tonight and in truth the tires still rub when turned inward and flexing

 

Well the brakes are on but the truck is stuck in the air, I was staying late at work to put these bad boys on and im getting ready to put the truck on the ground but the compressor to the shop was off and i couldnt get it to start so my truck is stuck in the airand im stuck at work. The brakes look good though haha,

 

And some uneven pad wear these brakes where less then a year old

 

Update: I still need to bleed the brakes a little more as I still have a soft pedal but even with a really soft pedal these brakes are all ready a huge improvment, the truck nose dives when the brakes are applied hard and thats with the soft pedal so Im going to use a pressure bleeder tomorrow and really flush the system the brake fluid was alot darker then I originally thought.

 

I flushed all the brake lines with new fluid and the brakes are a much welcome improvement, and this morning im going to test it on pulling a trailer with 7 goats so well see how that goes and how the brakes feel. I removed the trailer brake controller because the the mickey mouse wiring and the connector basically crumbled in my hand.

 

We couldnt find a adapter for trailer lights so we opted for the big truck instead and then we found of the lights on the trailer dont work right anyway and the trailer brakes locked up every time so we just unhooked the electrical and called it good

 

All of the lights are hooked up and working now i just need it to be dark for some pics.

 

For those of you concered on how much room there is with tundra brakes and 16in wheels

 

LED Night pics! Im very dissapointed with the rocker panel lights they are same style as the rear lights but not nearly as bright or as wide as a beam. But im am very pleased with the rear setup you cant tell in the pic but the rear does shine a good distance. Future plans is going to have matching lights on the rocker panels so i can have a wider beam which is crucial for that spot, but it still looks cool

 

This whole modding thing is addicting, next on the list is sliders and a hidden winch in the stock bumper
Edit: the next thing is a new leaf pack, my add a leaf is turning the stock leafs into a W and the axle wrap is starting to get really bad

 

Adventure toys bikes and a raft.

 

Flex... kind of

 

I love your truck man. It's looking good.

 

Thankyou , this truck has my blood sweat and tears along with some money in it to
