My Rhino Build Pics...

hahhaha, no, cant rhino everything...or can i???

 

Have you seen the mythbusters when they make the golf ball dimple car. It actually got better gas mileage with the added weight

 

Thats a clean looking tru... whaaaaaaa rhinolined? Crazy that is beastly I like it!

 

Man I like the truck, It looks sweet. And that shift knob you got is crazy.

 

you officially have my new favorite rhino lined truck on tw...

oh wait...

...

truck looks damn good brother

 

Well i am still torn. once i do the cab mount mod i will get a buddies 35s and throw em on to test out the room it will have. if all goes well i would like to go your route 4.88s, arb lockers, and 35s.

if it isnt to my likeing then im going 4.56 arb lockers, and 33s. but part of me say why the hell not go 4.88 either way right? its not like it is that much more expensive? all i want is power anyways right?

I forgot all about that episode. i couldnt believe it but then i thought about the golf ball and it made sense i guess.

hahaha yeah 25mm i need to get it mounted on there more solid though. i need a plasstic insert or somthing because the filling inside of the round doesnt hold threads very well.

Nice one i like that

Thanks all for the compliments. Theres alot of nice trucks on here. i think if you put 20 of our best trucks infront of me and i could keep anyone of them, i wouldnt be able to decide.

 

Noce build Guy, can't wait to see it at santee lakes. I have been thinking about rhino on mine just not sure how the fiberglass would like it, maybe just flat black. I am going to regear when i get my 35's to 4.56's and some guys i run with say the 4.56's are great

 

Thats good to know about the 4.56s. yeah i like it but i never got the uv protective coat because i knew id be wheeling and it didnt matter to me so it has greyed a little but this was anticipated. it is pretty much as light as its gonna get. i like that it changes looks at different times of the day.

Oh and your truck is sic man! its good looking and your only showing its ASS!

 

^^^^hey your truck is sic man! i love the looks of it there in that pic. height, wheels, color...it all just looks like a good combo.

 

so sick!

 

Dude thats one bad truck the lift and the allpro bumper really pull the whole thing together.

 

i want a painted rhino now!

 

Have to say really cool. Congrats. You may start a new trend.

 

Thanks man

 

Guy after seeing your truck today in person...all I can say is BAD ASS!!!

 

Thanks bro there wasnt one tacoma there that if i had the money to buy i wouldnt have. no matter what direction someone takes with their build they always have one thing going for them....Its a TACOMA!

 

Ok so here are the pics of the winch and I also cut back my cab mounts a bit...
Warn 9.5 ti ( funny thing about a winch...you always want one and a good one at that, but never want to have to end up using it)


Driver's side...I still havent got around to trimming on the fender area. i still have some investigating to do...


Passenger side... i cut them with a cutting wheel and then finished it off with a hack saw for the top part because there was about an inch of metal where i could not fit the cutting wheel up inside there to get to it. then i smoothed it all out and took it to work and had our welder cap it off. I'm still getting a bit of rubbing on the fender due to my 12 inch tires and i also think the spacers are causing a bit of the touching as well. i may give up my like of the looks of "spacers on" for functionality... we'll see what happens when i do more investigating and testing.

 

Would i have done it if it wasnt rubbing???? seems like a lot of work for no reason.

yes i have 33s but most people around here have the 11 inch wide mine are 12 inch and i also have spider trax on. i was getting plenty of rubbng and i would have without the spacers too. the fender is a different story though. i think wthout the spacers i can avoid it but not sure about when at full stuff. i have some testing to do.

also this way when want to go to 35s and regear someday i will have zero issues. thank for your concern though

 

This is such a sweet truck.
What do you do to clean it? just hose it off?

 

Just a normal spray off at the car wash, but that happens every 6 months or so unless I'm going somewhere special

If I have been in the mud you need to use the brush at the car wash because after you spray it off you will undoubtedly have missed a few spots and see the streaks of dirt residue...but hey who cares it has had 2 washes in the last year.

It cleans up real nice with just a normal washing at the car wash using the sprayer and the brush.
