RubyOverland's 2016 Off-Road 4x4 Build - SOLD

Grill looks great. I vote leave the bed stickers on simply because I like the design of them. they are much improved over the 2nd Gen design in my opinion

 

If my calculations are right your new tires are 7.4% larger. so you would take your computers mpg and multiply it by 1.074 to get your "real" mpg. 20mpg x 1.074 = 21.48mpg

Personally I don't care for the debaged look. I don't know where that all started. Hell, I have an SR, and I'm putting the decals and stickers on it cause it didn't come with any.

I think the colors of the decals flow really well with the wheels. I was looking at the Ray10's in Bronze, and I was thinking of having two tone bronze decals made

 

Thanks for the calculation! I suppose I could have looked that up haha.

Yeah I debadged the drivers side (luckily they came off without breaking) and I think I like it. Good thing is that I can always put them back on. As for the bedside decals - I'm not ready to take them off so for now I think they'll stay. I may replace them with something unique at some point.

Thank you. I thought about the bronze Ray10s too. I think those or the gunmetal the best colors for the Barcelona red.

 

SUB'D... great Looking truck!!!

 

Thank you! I really appreciate that! Trying to keep it clean and tasteful.

 

Alignment done and no more rubbing while normal driving!!!!

 

Awesome!

 

I get a little in reverse, but it's only when turning very sharply. Doesn't bother me, I don't drive in reverse often.

 

Did some trail riding out at Cheaha State Park.
Thanks @O906 for the photos! He's become my personal photographer.

 

Got my new CB mount in from @C4 Fabrication this weekend, managed to get it installed and then discovered my current coax cable is too short to move the antenna right now. Luckily, Amazon is a wonderful thing and I should have the new longer cable in this week. Here's some photos of the mount.
First impressions: Great fabrication and style. Seems sturdy as can be. I love the way it looks.

 

Did you remove the 3rd leaf from your Dakar leaf pack or leave it in?

 

I left it in.

 

Awesome pics and thanks for the shoutout!

 

Man those are some awesome photos! Whoever took them is an awesome photographer...

 

I wonder who took those....

 

No problem! I will post some more when I have the antenna installed.

 

Installed my new ditch lights from @CaliRaisedLed, thank you again for hosting the giveaway! I just have to install my new switch panel and get a OEM style switch.

 

Sub'd ..

Leah, congrats on such an awesome truck and thanks so much for sharing your build with us. I love the idea that you are working on your own truck and by the looks of it doing a very sucsessful job. I look forward to following your thread and seeing what else you do. Congrats again!

 

Amazing truck!! I am looking to get a 2017 TRD Sport longbow with the upgrade package in white soon! I hope to make it as awesome as this truck! Picking a lift and rims/tires is stressful and I don't even have the truck yet lol.

 

You'ok absolutely love this truck. Honestly, picking the lift was easy for me cause I had a budget and a lot of recommendations from friends. Tires, on the other hand, were the most stressful thing. For the longest time I couldn't decide size, tread, or brand. It was ridiculous. But I am super happy with how it all turned out. My biggest piece of advice is to be patient and take your time to do your research. Can't wait to see your Taco!
