    The truck is awesome but the tracked vehicles in that shop are freaking amazing. I don't see stuff like that very often!

    Which Lincoln welder are you using? 140 amp mig?

    Bro. Awesome. Nothing like doing it yourself. What did you had to get different to swap your front? From the 05 front to 2012?

    Nice work on the rack! The joints are pretty clever too. I like the idea to boxed it in at the bends to give you a flat surface to weld too. Trying to avoid doing notches, I guess? What tube dimensions? Did you bend it yourself?

    I ordered Headlights, Grill, under headlight pieces and hood. If you don't have or are not planning on getting an aftermarket bumper you'll need to buy a couple more brackets and buy the actual bumper and to me its cheaper to buy a nice aftermarket one! And thank you for the compliments!

    Sweet! I didn't realise how much I disliked having a silver sport model with the hood scoop till I got a black model with no scoop. It's really nice for cutting down glare. Nice touch.

    My plastic insert for my hood scoop finally showed up! And did some soldering on my instrument cluster, I think it looks good all blue!

    That bedrack is sweet! I've been toying with the idea of making my own, but unfortunately I'm not exactly well practiced in welding.

    I like the blue instrument lighting, reminds me of my old VW!

    So started and almost finished a roof rack for the tacoma, it should look bad ass when its done, got a 20" light bar going in the front plate and maybe a couple pod light facing out. Gonna bed line it and she'll match the bed rack nicely! Will be nice for little things to strap to the roof when I go camping, but the main reason i made it is to help make the tent more arrow dynamic and help my fuel milage. Let me Know what you guys think and stay tuned for the final product, should be done by the end of the week!
