Adio3x's Build/Pic thread.

How is Plastidipping the entire rig coming along? On hold?

Dippings on hold, Kings are on hold too. I have to finish up my 2 wheel project first before I can give my 4runner anymore love.

I haven't posted any pics from my Moab/Ouray trip, was planning on doing that today, but then this happened again lol.

Are you using wheel spacers? Do they rub? Do you have to do a body mount chop? Do you need UCAs?
 
Mine are actually bowing forward now that I've had some use bumping into things on the trails. I've tried straightening them out, but like Jesse said, its a real pain the ass.

I was looking at the filler pieces over the weekend and a simple bracket to provide some inner support would alleviate the issue. there is basically no support from the center of the piece all the way to the inside. I can see a small bracket being created for that side. It could use an existing bolt and the filler piece would need a hole at the bottom similar to the hole at the other end.

I contacted [MENTION=74569]SOcalTRAIL[/MENTION] as I think he is the fab guru on here. But if anyone has a SW bumper and the ability to fab a small piece I'd be glad to share my idea in more detail. I also may take some pics and send to SW and see if they'd be willing to make it.

Sorry for the thread jack Andrew but it fit the conversation.

No worries sir, I'd be interested in something like that!
 
I have to see this in person to understand what you guys are referring to. I may be ordering a SHrockworks bumper here pretty soon too.

thanks four your willingness to help. Hopefully when things calm down for you, and you get your bumper, you'll see what we're talking about and be able to create a fix.

In the meantime I contacted SW via email to see if they could look into it. maybe [MENTION=63082]TxBxSx[/MENTION] will see this and chime in.
 
Andrew,
I looked through your build thread but couldn't find this... any chance you could take a pic of how your rear Rigid SR 6"s are mounted? I got 2x SR-M's to run on the back of my Gobi and would like to put them high in order to clear more of the rear visor that sticks out and put useful light onto the ground.
 
Awfully quiet in here...

Been laying low for awhile. Not a whole lot new, forgot to post my moab pics, so here they are.

This was over the summer, before FJ summit.

Getting into Colorado from Missouri, I forgot what the trail was called, but it was a tight squeeze for the 5th gen.





Met up with my buddy Justin (MountainSun), ran Dome Plateau. Then the next day we met up with Joneseyyy & Limamike to do Fins & Things.

Double awnings ftw!









A lot of this happened on the trail.












lol his exhaust fell off



We did White Rim before heading to FJ Summit. Might try doing the trail backwards next time.



 
Awesome pics [MENTION=50186]adio3x[/MENTION]. Question, did something happened to your rig that you have the hood opened???
 
Sorry to hear, but you sir definetly have an awesome rig. Wish I could go on a wheeling, camping, fishing, hunting, drinking and a few more things ending with ing trip to the US. Dying to take my 3 years old kid camping but the little princess is just 4 months old. One of these days for sure!!!

I have almost the exact same pic from fins n things lol
 
Are these "the stairs" in Sedona AZ? (I think that's what they call them...). It looks similar but I can't tell... I did a bunch of trails in the Sedona area this time last year in a rented jeep. So many fun places to go out there.

Negative. These are either on Fin's & things or Dome Plateau in Moab.
