BTW, I ended up stepping up to the next higher 180A model. The 181i. Should be here on Monday I ordered it with the tig torch and foot pedal.

208-230V only tho. I thought it was 110/220. Oh well. Still only 33lbs. The 211i is 110/220, but much bigger at 55lbs. Nice machines anyway.

are you planning to get a water coolant system for it too?

 

Nate, I think Iven is working on a relocation bracket for the safety/recon bracket...lol That way you won't rip it off Off-road...

 

this might be the one that rolls past my working place everyday. ill see if i can sneak a pic if it rolls thru today..

 

I'm thinking I'll weld some bolts to the back so I can make new brackets without having to get new stickers.

 

Can any of you guys tell me where to find these? Can't seem to find the same ones on the net. Found some similar ones with the yellow tops, but not the clears. Oh yeah...are they legal?...lol

 

I know many of you folks take off those stiff stock mud flaps when off roading. I just about tore mine off last weekend on a rock at kaena, pulled out some of the mounting hardware and everything. So I decided to pick up some flexible ones online from rokblokz. I didn't want to simply remove the flaps or else my rockers would get blasted by rocks, gravel, sand, doodoo water, or wat ever. I just installed them and I'm pretty impressed so far. Easy installation, came with nice stainless steel hardware and they are way more flexible than the stock ones. They also provide a little more coverage as they are a bit wider. Length wise the fronts are about 3 inches shorter than stock and the back is about 3/4 inch shorter. I'm happy with the length compared to stock because especially in front, I would just scrape speed bumps all day. I probably could have fabricated something for cheaper but eh, I was lazy. The flaps sit about flush with the outside of my tires which is a plus because ever since changing rims, my tires were sticking out of the stock flaps. Just thought I'd share in case anyone wanted to pursue a similar route, now heres some pics...

looks like a modified 09+ led tail light housing. Did they change it on the 14s?

 

I think they are the depo tail lights with black bezel.

 

I seen those on the bottom of these TW pages. You know the little adds they have. Pretty nice . I like them.

 

Search eBay for tacoma black depo tail lights

 

Thnx...think I found them...

 

There's some guys that have cut off the lens with a dremel, painted the chrome and resealed it back together. I wanted to try it, but too much work. And any modification to the vehicles lighting equipment isn't allowed. But seldomly is it enforced.

 

Those are the black tail light mod. I have these aftermarket ones from Amazon. But the led portion is different. And as for the clear top? You mean the blinker? It's just a led bulb most likely

 

Those are nice! I originally just wanted stocks without chrome bezels, and with the red lenses from the non led tails, but those are changing my mind.

 

Lawson...I'm really liking your's! Do you have the link/brand for yours? I calculated shipping and it was like $120 for shipping!!! Geeeezus... I would prob ask the seller if they could send them USPS Flat rate. Maybe get lucky..

Edit: Did you say those in your attached photo are a Mod of the OEM? Hell...I would go that route and save the money to do it myself!

 

They're nicer than the anzo brand I have. I like the led cluster better. Looks like the stock ones.
