Tribull's '03 Double Cab 4x4 Build

what kit did you use?

 

Sorry man, haven't been on in a while. I used B-Quiet. They're a Canadian company, very wallet-friendly.

Here are the new headlights. I don't have any good night pics, but they are much brighter and whiter than my old Halogens.

 

Well I'm on a spending spree today. So far I've ordered Weathertech digital fit floorliners, Wheeler's SS brake lines (front and rear), and ToyTec adjustable shackles. And I'm waiting to hear back from Ben at XPedition Ready about an ARB bumper and Warn winch! WOOHOO!

 

are your mk6's the -10 offset? or 0?

 

Mine are the zero. The fronts rub at stuff/partial turn. I may get some spacers up front.

 

hmm i need to do some research on what ill need. i have no idea about back spacing haha not getting new wheels until i need new tires so i guess i have some time to figure it out! you still looking at that supercharger? Id go take a look at it for you if it wasnt so dang far away from me!

 

So I guess you are not selling it?

 

I would call Discount Tire and just ask em. That's what I did! And yes, I am definitely thinking about the S/C. I found a really nice guy to go check it out for me.

No sir! I saw the light! I just considered how happy/excited I was when I found it. I was not that excited about a 4Runner. Not to mention all the time and $$$ I've put into it so far!

 

I decided to upgrade my subwoofer. My little 10" just wasn't doing it for me. So I ordered a 12" Kicker CR-T slim mount in a truck box from hifisoundconnection.com for ridiculously cheap.

Here's a side-by-side comparison:



And how it sits behind my center console. It's a little too wide for my taste, so I may look into a custom box.

 

Could try making a custom box too. Pretty sure fiberglass isn't too hard to work with. Im going to make my snorkel out of fiberglass. i had a link to a custom box specifically for tacomas. they had double cab box's and ext cab box's. Ill try to find the link.

 

I've considered that, too. I'd just have to do some research on how to work with fiberglass. I've never done it before. Thanks for looking for the link!

 

No prob bro.
hmm the option for the double cab might not be the best option actually. The ext cab box is cool which is why i ended up saving the link lol.

It looks like both the single and double box you can only fit 8" subs.. You might be able to call em up and ask them to make the box custom so it can fit a bigger sub(s). Wish it woulda had a picture of the single sub box for ya..

 

Well I had a pretty productive weekend. I FINALLY put in my new battery cables courtesy of BamaToy, and they are legit! Then I finished up my full size spare install. I should have my new Relentless bed bar in next week, which I will be mounting my Hi-Lift to. Also due to arrive are my Wheeler's adjustable shackles and SS brake lines. I'm still undecided on where to set my shackles.

 

What was the mpg difference between your 265 nittos and 285 duratracs? I'm putting my lift on Friday and trying to decide on tires. I drive 90 miles a day, so I'm over thinking this decision...

 

What type of display do you have on your positive post?

 

I don't have a concrete number. I personally drive around 50 miles a day, and I average around 17 mpg right now. But I absolutely love having 285's. That being said, I may be looking for a cheap commuter car as my truck gets more and more modified.

 

It's a voltage display that comes with the kit. It stays on all the time. And it looks damn cool.

 

Agreed!

 

Got the ARB bumper and Smittybilt winch on and functioning last night. Tonight comes the Relentless bed bar/Hi-Lift mount and Redline hood struts.

 

nice looking good bro.
