Mark's DC Tacoma

This really looks nice.
Im just wondering if this could be rigged up to attach to where a tow hitch would be for an LC80 - bolt on to the frame. Removed after a trip for daily drivers. Im guessing it would still be less than whats out in the market for tire and jerry can carriers.
Just looked at the site - I guess wrong. That hybrid bumper = $650.

Bluto - you may want to inquire with Slee Off Road about your situation.

They make some very nice rear bumpers/swingouts for 80 series Cruisers.

Sorry for the Hijack Mark.


Westy,
Ive looked but havent spoken with anybody at this time.
I would love to buy their set up but looking for something that can come off when a trip is done (weight saving for a daily driver) and priced reasonably.

Ill probably go the bolt on route (slee or Hanna) - itll just take longer.

I've been in correspondance with Rod at total vision for a little while, I'm trying to setup a package that suits what I need. His customer service is great:exclaim:

You may want to consider a nose-cam as well. It is one camera I am very interested in adding. Being able to see while cresting a dune or hill would be great.

:hehe: He's getting started on my order already...so far I've got the tail cam, nose cam, front axle cam from t case, rear axle cam from t case and a possible cam in the cab viewing through the winshield. Do you think I should have that last cameras field of vision include the driver or dashboard? I at least want to see the hood for a reference.

And the 6pos switch will have an output to the screen and splitter for a camcorder :jump:

I posted all of my comments in the thread at 4wdtrips... but I gotta say these are some really nice mods! I can't wait to see the video captures :ylsmoke:

No need to post pics, they are all here.

Plus a bump for a nice truck!

Cheers:beer: ,

Here's pics of my frame reinforcement...I finally painted it flat black, instead of the bling black. I did this to support my swing gate and aux fuel tank. DO changed his design and this was the second one that he did this way with the holes cut/welded in the center for better unity to the frame. This is a must with all the added weight.

P.S. I finally hosted my pictures via photobucket and updated my thread so no more attachments :victory:

LOL, thank you all for the compliments

It feels like my frame is more rigid - it's probably just mental though rngartis

Look at what I ordered today!!!

No, no, no. Not the Land Rover! I ordered the "cavernous" eezi-awn 1600. With my wife and son I think it'll be a little tight but my wife would much rather sleep up there than on the ground. Thanks to Nathan at Pangaea it should arrive in a couple weeks. I can't wait to install it and use it! :chowtime:
