ShadowRunner Tacoma...the road to SEMA 2017

Gotta see where this goes. And we need tickets to get in.

 

Just an update for you guys...wheels are back from powdercoat and tires came in, both of which will be on first thing next week. Seats will also be done and installed next week, all 4 of them! I'll be heading to the shop tomorrow to get some more detailed pictures of all the fiberglass for you guys!

 

If I could get tickets for everyone interested...trust me, I would!

 

I've always wanted to go.

 

Fuck me I like where your build is going. I might have to start my own build thread with my '16 Taco

 

Few updates for you guys! Seats are all done, mounts are off to powdercoat, everything else will be done Friday. Stay tuned!

 

Grille is on as well!

 

Sorry for the ghost mode guys. Been busy lately. Here's a few updates since the last post.

Seats, fiberglass, and wheels/tires were all installed by The Rust Lab here in Texas.

First set EVER of Bodyguard Bumpers A2L front and A2 series rear bumpers are all done and installed. They will be available for consumer purchase on their website soon.

Got a custom sub enclosure for the back seats made to house two Kicker 8" L7 subs and their IQ1000w amp. Shit bangs!

I also got my sPOD touchscreen kit installed, paired with a 20" Rigid Radiance light bar, 4 radiance cubes, and 2 midnight edition flush mounts in the rear bumper. My Rigid 50" adapt will be here Tuesday, which will be installed shortly.

LoneWolf Offroad also made me a custom set of badass rock sliders with slanted arms, rather than the tradition straight arms.

I've had a bit of a change of plans with the overall build theme. I've decided to do go with a crossbreed of a prerunner style and an overland/expedition style. I managed to get one of the first Cali Raised bed racks, as well as snatching a CVT RTT. My rack won't work right out of the box with my fiberglass bedsides as they are a bit taller than stock and I'm worried about all that weight on the fiberglass. Miller Offroad out of Houston will be custom fabricating part of my bed cage to allow the bed rack to mount directly to it, so it will not be touching the bedsides at all.

All of my suspension components from Fox will be here next week. Taking the truck to get the Camburg LT kit, bed rack, and RTT put on, as well as my bed cage fabbed and my camburg rear leaf-under kit paired with my Atlas leafs installed next weekend.

After that the truck will be off to get wrapped, then heading to SEMA 2017!

 

Pshhhh stock or nothing

If Toyota wanted the truck to look like that they would have made it that way

Factory is best

 

Sweet! With those big fender flares it needs some LT action!

 

​

 

Found you man!! Looking good

 

New powdercoat, didn't like the last color. And FINALLY some LT! Gotta get reservoir mounts, hook up the axle, and do some tuning then the front is golden! Onto the rear, should be done next week.

 

need to update this thread man...saw the rig at sema this year

 

Don’t want to steal your thunder

 

Nice truck! What happened with the cage? Not to be a party pooper, but full harnesses and no cage is a really bad idea. If you ever roll the truck or cave the roof, and are harnessed in, good bye. That is the reason regular seat belts are designed the way they are, to allow you to get folded down instead of having the truck form itself around you while you sit there.
Just throwing it out there, don't mean to be a negative nancy.

 

Guess I should update this a bit, huh? Things have changed a bit since my last post. New bumpers, Prinsu rack, and no more RTT! Lately I've been enjoying it a lot offroad. Making several trips to Colorado, Arkansas, local offroad parks, etc.

 

You should move those pictures and info to your OP
That way new viewers will see it first without hunting through the pages

 

Good point
Done

 

lookin good

that bumper is so nice!
