you want to post a vid in cab while driving? Curious of how loud it is while in the cab!

You are going to hate me when i post my build thread.....will have basically twins.

 

Its actually not too loud. I mean you can hear it when you stomp on it but nothing too obnoxious imo. No annoying drone either when on highway.

 

Heres a pic of my 3rd brake light (not lit up but you get the idea).

 

Hmmm...that looks strikingly familiar...LMAO!



Are you sure your not my evil twin...lol

 

What?! You have the same one? Haha I honestly didn't even know man( I Prob would have gotten it sooner if I saw one though). At least I don't think I knew? I got it off eBay I think like 3-4 months ago. It was so cheap$$ I didn't even think I was going to use it, but it turned out a lot better then I expected. Hahaha well at least your not in FL or I'm not in HI.

 

Subd' this truck is awesome I love those tail lights

 

This In... Gotta replace those damn blinker bulbs with LED's. Too yellow

 

Rick...you replaced the rear blinker bulbs with LED's correct? Did you need to put in a resistor?

 

Looks good man! Yes I had to put in a resistor for each one. Just mounted it right behind the light on the bed. It's super easy. I got the resistors the same place as the bulbs (superbrightleds.com)I think the site actually tells you which one to get.

 

Great job on your build Rick!
I am in the process of selling my car to get a pre runner and wanted to know if your truck has the locking rear diff? I want the color match bumper and grill that is in the TRD Sport package but that package doesn't come w/ the locking rear dif; only the off road package which has the chrome grill and rear number. If yours does have the rear diff let me know how you worked that. Thanks.

 

Thanks. No its just the regular sport. I dont think you can get it that way unless you custom build it from the factory. And even then im not sure if its an option.

 

I would get a TRD sport and add an air locker.

 

Thanks Rick and Chopper678

 

Sick build! And nice covers btw

 

Thanks! Got the idea from you! I did have to do a little "heat & bend" in order to make them fit, but they are nice and tight now.

 

Its nice how you make them fit a curved bar! I think I was the first one to have covers on the windshield light bar

 

Hey Rick, nice looking truck. I have those steel letters and have a grillcraft coming soon. If i capuld I ask you how you affixed the letters onto the grill??? Tape or glue/epoxi? Thanks man I appreciate it.

 

Love the light bar, I can get a bar here in so cal I'm wondering how you fit yours? Can you show installation pictures as to how it is mounted in the doors or on the roof?

 

You can see some pics in my build page if you want... I'm sure Rick wouldn't mind...

 

Thanks. I used Scotch permanent doubled sided tape(I'm sure 3M would work too). They are not coming off easily that's for sure.

See below. He has a great detailed how-to on his page. That's how I did mine.
The brackets are Relentless Fab and they mount in the roof rack holes that are already on truck. Don't have to drill through roof or pillars which is good.

Thanks Rick!!
