Scott's PreRunner Build, Blog, & BS

LOL I get back Friday and I'll try and have that roof rack put together by Sunday night. I'll get some more pics of the truck up and update everything soon. Still waiting for that bumper, feels like forever... probably because I'm so damn excited!!!

Also, I'm gonna do the always DRL on mod. Don't know why I haven't thought of this yet haha but I'm gonna have my halos always on, my DRL switch being the panamera switchbacks & halos amber, and keep everything else the same.

 

Nice!!! ​

 

Billy said a couple more weeks. It's alright, I can wait for quality parts.

 

Classes have started and I've purchased a bunch of parts for the roof rack that I'll put on the shell. I'm leaning towards Prinsu for the cab rack mainly because I'll be drilling through my roof.

 

Starting all the cutting for building that rack. Should be a weekend or two job. I love the idea that this is "my truck." Sure I've taken a lot of ideas from y'all here but when someone asks me where I bought this rack I'll reply, "I made it..." If any of y'all wanna help me with my stats homework feel free to chime in.

 

I want a shell for my tundra so bad but every time I think about buying one I haul something too big for a shell then I’m like damn it!


Truck is looking good buddy!

 

Thanks man.

Can't help me with my stats homework? Rude.

 

The last person you want helping you with math is me. I can calculate a dopamine drip in the back of my ambulance or a mannitol drip in back of helicopter but for the life of me I can’t do any other math lmao!

 

Working on the rack and my IFS skid from Pelyfreybilt has finally arrived. Looks gorgeous. I'll install it at the same time when I get that darn bumper on.

A combination of personal issues and schoolwork have delayed my progress on the projects. However I have been able to finish the roof rack. Needs to be painted and I'm waiting for my Yakima tracks to arrive (Friday the 26th) so it'll be a couple weeks for it to arrive. The Morimoto X Torch (40 inch) has arrived! Couldn't be more excited to have QUALITY products on my rig.

Also Chad, I love the new sticker.

I've lived in Texas for almost a year and a half now... my residency will be official this April; I couldn't be more proud to be a resident of this amazing state. I find my Washington State heritage unique to my character but I bolster the inner Texan within me. People like Chad and several other users on this site are one of dozens of reasons to live here in Texas after medical school.

Prinsu Prinsu Prinsu PRINSU!!!!

 

​

 

PAC racing springs are shipping out next week. Hot damn those have taken a while to get taken care of. Although, red will go nicely with the truck. Stoked.

 

This thread needs more photos so here's some:
I'm getting the tracks installed today so hopefully I'll have the rack installed momentarily. Also, here's a pic of the rack... Need help deciding if I should add another cross member?? Maybe, maybe not. I just want to make a decision before I paint the darn thing.





More pics will be coming once I have that bumper installed. Prinsu rack won't be here for weeks

The Pelfreybilt IFS skid and Morimoto X Torch 40 inch light bar are just sitting in the corner of my work room...

 

I think the rack looks good as is!!! Paint that puppy!!!​

 

I'm thinking about selling my tacoma for a Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. Convince me not to.

I'm just not happy with the 4x2, lack of passenger space, and V4 engine.

I feel like if I part out and then sell, I might get some more cash.
