The shop sent me an update shot today. The cover for the fuel tanks is finishing up! Drive shaft is also back after modification and the Sway-bar from Speedway Engineering should be arriving soon! Also now that the wheel and tire situation is sorted out should be able to move along quickly...

Brown Santa has Delivered! The Stealth 6 wheels look even better in person. Can't wait to see these get mounted up with the new 35" KO2s! P.S. Anyone interested in a good beater set of 285/75R16 AT KOs with MB Razor Rims? (pictured on truck). Would have loved to keep the old rims but needed...

I guess it is starting to look like it would fit well in a Mad Max movie. I'm just constantly working to improve the rigs capabilities and versatility. I've never understood people that build up a rig and then sell it before they even have a chance to enjoy it.. And being done? Never going to...

Pretty sure that rear axle will outlive me! Everybody loves a slinky right? Working on getting a rear sway-bar setup on the rig. Should help a ton!

2nd Tank has arrived!!! Looking much closer now

That's crazy, those shocks got super hot! I never had problems with my OEM or OME shocks on my Tacoma and I've done way more on dirt roads than that (Mojave, Baja, Navajo, Moab, Anza, and the outskirts of Death Valley) while fully loaded with gear and going faster... Still. I think I'll be...

No kidding! Making some good progress. Shop was finishing up the mounting points, coilover buckets, bedcage is pretty much done, frame is now boxed and plated with new cross members, new limit straps are in place. Swaybar will likely squeeze between the two fuel tanks. I'll be honest I'm not...

and a few more:

Some pics over time...

Well, we appear to be back on track! Axle is back in the truck, new body bushings have been installed, front diff is out and getting re-geared, the remaining mounting points from my leaf springs and panhard setup have all been cut out along with the spare tire bracket, 4-link getting dialed in...

Likely heading down there Thursday, hope to have some updates.

Looking good! Like the silver RTT, Matches batter than my green one l

This makes me think if I want to swap out my camper shell or not...

I love that thing.

I love that thing.

Well, I don't have have the Tacoma back yet but it still does not stop me from planning and having a stockpile of parts for future mods.. Just picked up a Factor 55 FlatLink and Custom Splice ARB Offset Hawse Fairlead P.S. Shout out to Custom Splice for amazing customer service, the first...

So..... yea.... apparently they can't get the current setup to work. So everything is getting cut off any going back to a standard 4-link. Gas tank situation is still TBD but the truck will handle better and it will pull more travel. Just wont have all the fuel capacity I wanted. But who knows...

Yea I was "shocked" when they went with 18"s as well, but if they could make it work whatever... Shop was saying that they would have to mount the shocks even higher than that to make the 18s work and would need a full cage due to all the leverage and what not. So they went ahead and order a new...

Well ******k.. Redesign 4.0 Have another set of shocks being made as 18" is just a little too much... 16" inbound!

Thanks! I don't know the exact years that were covered but its late 80s to early 1990s rear F-150 tanks. Did not see any other models besides this one that have been used for the rear tank. Finally got the truck back, now with new stealth features. However it's now a pain to find where I...
