    Here it is. Not pretty at the moment! The switch panel is from @paranoid56 He does amazing work and it is perfect for filling in the space under the radio! As you can see under that is the cable to where the CB goes, which I currently don't have in!!Hope that helps!

    How long did your snorkel take to ship? I'm looking on Amazon and ETA is between March 22 - April 15...:rain:

    I'm going to pull the trigger on it. If it shows up in a week, great. If not, looks like I'll install it in a month or so.

    Mine took less than a week to arrive.

    Also, we did the same thing with the squishy tube on Tuck's that we did on mine. Mine has had zero issues since install.

    Back to your build thread I go. Which tube did you replace it with, exactly. My rig has K&N cold air (already on when I bought it).

    You'll never make the snorkel functional with the CAI. You'll need a stock airbox. It comes with a tube to connect the snorkel to the airbox, but it is way too flimsy. We used as much of the stock plastic tubing as possible.

    Yeah, the CAI is going regardless. It's more noisy, dirty, and a pain in the ass than it is functional. I just wasn't sure if I could make the snorkel work with parts available or if I in fact needed to get a factory airbox. Could you post a pic of your airbox on your thread when you get a chance? I always see photos of the actual snorkel and tube discussed, but no one ever takes a clean shot of the airbox portion.

    DSC_0014.jpg Since I cannot do much after having surgery, I got some sticker made up of all my ski sponsors. Turned out a little more orange than I expected, but looks good! What do you guys think?

    Just a quick thought, these wheels are not being sold anymore! Not sure if your getting or have the same ones, but they are Wheelers offroad 16x8 with 4.5 backspace. I have been looking everywhere to find a matching spare and finally found one! Also I run 1.25" BORA wheel spacers.

    Well did a front end swap, all the parts took way longer than expected! Especially the BAMF behind the grille light bar mount, but its done and I'm happy with it!

    Sorry everyone for the lack of updates! Skiing has really taken over, but now that I've blown my knee and unable to drive. I took the opportunity to get some work done on the taco. I recently purchased an hardshell RTT, the only thing is I'm unable to fit in the garage! So with that in mind as well as more support for the tent, I'm having an local fab guy build an custom rack for the tent as well as Maxtrax, Rotopax and a swing out for the full size spare. Its quite the project, but its slowly getting put together. Once I get more pictures I will post them for all of you! Also if any of you have any input on this I'd love to hear!
    Thanks a million for following along

    Little update for you guys. Been slowly putting together the custom bed rack to serve multiple purposes including strength for my RTT as well as full size spare tire gate, @rotopax and @maxtrax. Went and took a look at it today as we are getting close, just waiting for a few more mounts then we are on to getting in painted and mounted.
    Purchased the spindle for the swing out from @RelentlessFab as well as a T-knob. The spindle is super strong and should do super well with the full size spare!

    How do you like that rtt? Most of the ones I see are the tent style.

    Any good or bad reviews on it based on your experience?
