zing!

 

Don't forget to thank Austin in his Vegas Decal/Battle Born Tacomas ( 1 2 3 ... Last Page) thread.

 

Lookin' Good! Thanks for posting!

Glad this one worked out better, and that you posted a pic. Thanks!

 

Does anyone know someone there who does aluminum anodizing? I need to get my hawse fairlead blacked out.

 

I just had one powder coated by the shop that powder coated your bumper and it turned out really nice. Not sure how well it will last, but looked amazing.
I do know of a shop here called Apex anodizing though if you want to go anodized.

 

Good morning Reno area Tacos!!!!

Looking for ONE original factory 16" wheel for a 2006 Taco

Anybody????

 

I'm not against the powder coating route, I just saw someones build thread that said they had theirs anodized, and it looked great.

No problem man glad it worked for ya

 

I keep forgetting to post some pictures. The color is pyrite mica, or as I like to call it rootbeer metallic. getting the plastic paint protection stuff on it Thursday so the paint doesn't get thrashed driving back n forth over Donner.

The bed is full of stuff that I am bringing up to donate from my dad's estate.

already looking at other tires, don't much like the stock sport tires. snorkel would be nice too

Anyone have any insight where to mount a HAM radio in there? I've had my license for awhile, but I'd like to have one in the truck.

Best bet is to get the nice Yaesu with the removable face plate, mount the radio body under the seat or something and then the faceplate below the radio or wherever suits you. I've seen custom mounts into the head liner before.

 

Big thanks to Jason for the new stick!

 

Have you thought about buying a black one, could be cheaper than anodizing or powder coating. just throwing it out there

 

I hadn't thought about that. Looks like they're about $70-$80. I'm not sure what anodizing cost. It's not a priority, so I'll get it figured out.

 

anodizing isn't to bad if i remember correctly i paid around $25 to get a fairlead anodized

 

Max is right! I just got the yaesu ft2900 (non removable face) and am trying to figure out how/where to mount it. The removable faces can be mounted most anywhere.

 

Hey Skidooman I passed through Elko on my way up to Wilson Reservoir this past weekend and happened to pass by your truck on my way. I love the white relentless bumper it looks sick!

 

Thanks to whoever posted that Gold Lake run, had a lot of fun, was neat to see and it was a QUICK drive up there.

Not far at all.
