    OBA Install on 05+ Tacoma

    Good catch, the picture is not inverted, I actually moved the inverter plug to teh drivers side. As far as the gaps, the compressor is suprisingly protected up there, that is one reason I did it there instead of the common "frame rail" mounting. That being said, a bit of dust, water, etc does...

    That was actually used for simulation so I could determine the current draws for each wire (probe wherever I wanted)....this is a more simplified and user friendly figure of the same circuit, maybe it will be useful as well (its the same circuit, they both do the same thing). The upper...

    Progression of a NEW Photographer (At least I hope to be)

    Yeah, after looking at it big on this post I think your right..the tree is not as crisp as I was hoping..so maybe I did have the depth of field right, just focused on the wrong thing..shoot.

    DAVE!!!! IM GONNA QUOTE THIS AND PUT IT IN MY SIGNATURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Uh ohh, don't tell him that! haha...the flippacs should "look" the same, though they are different, his is a short bed and mine is long bed, so his hangs over the cab more than mine. Other than that they should look identical

    Progression of a NEW Photographer (At least I hope to be)

    OK a few from last weekends trip..also the debut of my flippac..woo hoo! First Attempt at an HDR shot: Random Hardwood in desert (I wish I had adjusted the aperture so that the bush immediately behind the "tree" was more out of focus): Very full moon (I would have liked to try an HDR...

    haha pretty much spot on...I just bought the camera a few weeks ago and have been trying to learn how to take good pics, so i practice a lot (never had a good camera before this). but for this shot basically, my headlamp (LED) is off to the left infront of my truck giving some external...

    Inexpensive LED flood lights.

    I run the round ones for my fog lights..I LOVE them...often times when outside I will actually drive with JUST them so I do not blind others with headlights. they throw plenty of nice cool white light to drive to. Have had them for a few months and still going strong..the are on ALL the time as...

    Ok I'll try to answer to my best knowledge, but I suggest you also talk to Mario on this forum, (he works for AT who sells them. He is VERY good source of info) So: 1: As far as I can tell, it's like any other tent, there is a separate fly for heavy rains, however, for cold, I do not see it...

    Show us your Toyota 4runner, tacoma or truck.

    Don't want to clutter this thread with random pics, but take a look at this section of my build thread, there are a few there (http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/36561-Barlowrs-Expedition-Tacoma-Build?p=1232898#post1232898) But yes, it is a full size matress, plus you have the entire...

    Flippac And now for the best mod to date. DISCLAMER: If you do not know what a Flippac is, I advise you not to read any further, as it may result in you wanting one and spending a LOT of money to get one. Otherwise, continue (but I warned you). OK, for those that do not know what a flippac...

    Relay Bank Well since I am revamping my interior and adding a bunch more lights (LED Bar and many more) I decided to revise how my wiring is done for these. Also, if anyone has ever been driving down a dark road with their auxiliary lights on, and a car come around a bend at you, I’m sure you...

    LED Light Bar You were probably wondering why I blacked out my hood..well here is the reason. This is an Alien 50” LED Bar (bright as HE!!). Because I am getting the flippac, which opens up pver the hood, I had to be careful to not mount it too high, so I decided to fab up some custom...

    Hood Blackout Well for an upcoming mod, I finally decided I needed to black out my hood, so rather than spending a lot of money on vinyl or expensive paint, I decided to give plastidip a try. I previously used it on my emblems. So first off I took the hood off and masked off where I wanted to...

    Magnetic Comm Mounts Well I am revising my whole interior (lots more to come in next few weeks), however, one thing that has always bugged me was the stupid hangers for the CB and HAM handset, I always thought they were hideous, so I decided to change it up. A friend of mine (4RunAmok on...
