Taco Man in HD's Build Thread

Got some new Method Double Standards and General Grabber Red Labels, made another set of 1-piece retrofit headlights (tinted lenses and flat black insides), and added some ToyTec adjustable lift shackles to help level out the bro-lean. Time to save up for some new leafs and some extended travel front Fox Shox.

That thing looks insane, I like it, are those the ebay 1 piece headlights

 

Thanks! Yeah, they are the 1 Piece "Spyder" headlights from ebay. They have terrible output on their own, but with The Retrofit Source HID projectors, they are great.

Dude, your truck is awesome! I admire all the hard work on this build. Have you had any issues with the eBay red and black/smoked tail lights? Just ordered a set from eBay for $90. Yours is the only truck I can find online with them for pics. Lol

 

Thanks! No problems with them, and I recently bought a similar ebay set (from neondials) for my FZJ80!

 

Land cruisers are so dope! I'll post pics soon of my build. Nothing fancy like your Tacoma but its slowly coming along.

 

have pics straight on with the solo spindles? looking on getting some sometime next year. camburg kit is already 4" each side for me so idk if the exta 1.75" from the spindles will be too goofy

 

Hey man, do you have any more pics of your most recent retro? What projectors did you put in them? Im looking to do the same thing with the same set. Thanks!

 

You gonna do the smoked?

 

Yep, I don't think the output will be affected that much. I'll probably just buy a whole new set and sell my current one.

 

Sounds good man. I thought about doin the same thing

 

Yeah, I just really want to fit the panamera shrouds in. They look pretty sweet!

 

Yea but I don't think it can happen lol bony know if the 120mm halo would even fit

 

Well damn, we'll see what magic I can work. Now I'm on my third retro, and I thought it would be one and done.

 

Haven't updated the build recently, but here's a few recent mods/maintenance pictures! Fabbed up a budget solo-style rear shock mount, new dakar leafs, and undercoated the whole frame with por-15.

Currently trying to figure out a driveline squeak that I believe is coming from the "non-serviceable" cardan joint...considering having a whole new shaft made.
