MrGrimm's Mall Crawler

So i was looking on http://www.rockmonsterwheels.com/products.php?product=toyotatrucks for the wheels that you have but I haven't been able to find them. Do you know where to find them? The ones on that site don't match our model, or do those fit?

 

Those are the same ones. They only make one style for the 6 lug Toyota's. When you order, you can order them in different colors.

I ordered mine directly form the link below and because they were so close I was able to pick them up. It was about 6 weeks before I picked them up.

How loud is the compressor behind the rear seat? I picked one up and am trying to decide whether to place it under the hood, in the cab like yours or fabricate a mount/enclosure for one of the cubbies in the bed.

Really would prefer it to be protected from the weather.

 

The single isn't bad behind the seat. You know it's there but not uncomfortably loud or can't be talked over.

 

I'm guessing the dual is significantly louder?

 

It's loud, but not unbearably loud. The plastic behind my seats is all gone. I now have a bunch of gear back there that helps to deadon the sound. I imagine with some sound deadoning material installed, it woul dbe really quiet.

 

Sweet, I may have to build off of one of your ideas again

I owe you a case of beer whenever I get too meet you in person.

 

While we are on the topic of noise. I notice in most of your pics you are carrying pelican type boxes on the frontrunner rack. Do you often travel with those at highway speeds and if so do they make a lot of noise. I remember reading about the noise of the rack itself but couldn't remember if anything had been said about the cargo.

 

The black pelican case and the first aid kit are always on the roof. They don't any noticeable noise. The roof rack comes with a fairing that helps with the noise. Without it, the noise is really loud. With it on, there is no noise.

 

Good to know. The fairing on that front runner rack is under the rack right? From the pictures I have seen thats what it looks like. I am surprised there isn't that much noise.

 

At this point I suppose you're not too concerned with fuel mileage penalties for having stuff on your rack all the time.

 

MPG isn't a big concern. I figure 14-15 MPG is pretty damn good for this thing.

 

Everything bout this rig is what we are shooting for!! Thanks for posting links to manufacturers/builds/installs one page one....HUGE HELP

 

Dude,

I love your truck. It was pics of your rig and Pelfreybilts fantastic customer service that convinced me to order a bumper and have it shipped up to canada. Got my 886x coils and all my rigid lights.

 

What are you running for wheel spacers?

 

Glad I could help.

I am only running wheel spacers in the rear and they are 1.5"

 

Man this is a sweet setup! For your inverter how did you get the reg 12v wall plugs or did you take them off the inverter?

 

I got them from the inverter itself.

 

Dude...you've definitely taken the #1 spot on my research build list! Not to mention that you're one of the only super white builds out there for me to really see what my truck can look like.

In the begining you used the stock shocks...did it give you any problems while you were running them? I have 5100's for my fronts and gonna start off with 1.5 blocks for the rears until I save up more money. Wondering if I can get away with that set up for a little while...?

 

Any type of lift in the rear is going to start taxing your stock shocks real quick because of their length. My stock shocks didn't last long with the lift.
