Yeah Thanks I will pull the flare a pull down the panel it should be fine Next project, up to bat I have been bugged by the TRD Dual exhaust exit pipes for a long time. I just don't like how it looks back there. I have been working on figuring out how to have them redone I went...

We did our annual road trip to Colorado for the FJ Cruisers Summit But then.... I wanted to take a side trip to Moab for a specific trail. I did many searches on the internet to find a full size crewmax type truck on the precipice, at the Top of the World Trail . I couldn't find...

There has been a lull in the action with my build. Business is crazy, so truck time hasn't been there. I wasn't settled with the rear suspension. it just seemed like it was too low. A little sag may have occurred as well . Without rebuilding the springs again., or using blocks, I decided to...

Wheels of progress have slowed with business stuff and delays, until last week. One of the projects that has been hanging out there is the front grill project that will house my 30" S8 . I have had that light in my office for an eternity, it seems, but I finally have something to show now...

I took a few mounted pics of the rear light, before I sent it off to DBCustomz, for grill fitting. Since I got both lights and the 30" will be in the grill, I figured he could use the 20",to fit for a Taco grill, or something He is making a grill for my truck. It may have a few special...

The rack size is 89"x55" you could get it in 52 width as well, but with the width of the Tundra , it made sense to have it slightly wider than the roof line, so the lights could actually hang further over Here is a recap of the lights chosen for the grill and the back of the rack I have...

A few more finished pictures These were pictures of the challenge I received from the very first Overland Expo is Prescott. While it was on display, someone challenged me to drive the obstacle course with my windows covered. So I did :-)

Thank you. Yes I had a few hours into it. with trying to run a business and working on this system, I had about 8 1/2 weeks running around with wires pinned up and no interior, except a few seats :-) . I loved the entire process though . I was just a snowball building, as I figured out...

There is a company locally that makes them . Mostly sold at the dealerships. You pay a premium, but I wanted them that day, since I was leaving for Vegas the next day. So to anser it i got it through Camelback Toyota Thank you . Forming a plan is the best way to curb the costs. Good...

Bobby That would be enough for me not to ever use them. Thanks for the information. Too bad there are those, who cannot do business right and scam from others. It gives the entire industry a black eye. Luckily we also have venues to spread the word about these bad companies :-)

Thanks Bailey. You all were "rock stars" on getting the correct lighting configuration for this build. Now that the S8 Amber, is in the grill, it feels more complete. For this reason, I choose to support companies that provide excellent product and the knowledge to help make decisions on what...

Thank you !! Thank You !! Thank you, I enjoy the entire process of figuring all of this out Why Eezi-awn over Front Runner, LabRak etc.? I chose EezI-Awn because I have a good working relationship with Equipt Outfitters, http://www.equipt1.com/. Paul May is a household name in the...

Thank you . it's still in the works (sort of) :-) These things have plenty of power with or without the s/c I still haven't had time to finish the air system, primarily because I want to build a control panel on on the back end of my control box area. I have a few pieces of the...

I am beginning the install of my Rocksmasher, 2 way air system. It's a universal kit that you can adapt to any truck including the Tundra. Typical installation would have all the control features under the hood, since some actually mount compressors there. I will be doing it slightly...

Just back from Vegas and SEMA. I actually got in Toyota's booth for the afternoon, on Saturday, then did the Cruise afterwards. TCT had the photo shoot on Saturday, then I got word that one of the Las Vegas groups were going out to a dry lake bed, about 30 minutes outside of the city on Sunday...

Well. ..after several months of planning figuring, changing plans and all the other things that goes with building something, Its finally to the stage where almost should be. :) The wrap and the Roof Top Tent, would have been the final pieces My goal was to get in a SEMA booth , but fell...

This has been Driving me nuts, since I bought my truck. I never understood why Toyota didn't do something to the embossed emblems . I wanted to do something custom, but for now, this was the best solution I could find. it's actually a vendor, that does work for Toyota . I looked on fleabay...

Thank you it finally looks like its almost finished LOL What I think you are saying is having the Bedslide loaded and extended. on a slanted driveway. No I havent tried it, but it rolls really easy. It would take a little strength, but it would be doable to push back in, without killing...
