mAtTyGlaz Build Thread

Figured I'd start a build page to at least help me keep track of what I do to the rig.

2017 Canadian TRD Pro

Fresh off the boat February 15th 2017

Picked up and took home the next day February 16th. That afternoon I added front and rear Weathertech floor mats and a Toyota hood deflector.

Later that day I added some "Raptor" style LED grill lights. Instructions and links here

Hopefully more to come soon!

Well nothing big but plasti dipped rear "4Runner/Toyota" emblems. Kind of silly every other badge on the Pro come black from the factory.

[2nd Chance]

Nothing too much but wanted a little bit of storage until I get around to building a shelving system. Cut a thick all purpose mat from Home Depot to fit. I picked up a cheap tote and filled it with tow straps, matches, tools, axe, gloves, socks, shackles, etc. should do the trick for now.

Removed factory running boards. Hopefully sliders in the near future.

It was a busy Friday. Installed some Cooper 255/80/17 ST Maxx's along with the Toytec 2" lift. Loving the set up so far.

Picked up a recovery strap and shackle hitch and added some decals.

Ride looks nice!

Did you go with the 255/80/17 (taller but narrower tire) rather than the typical 285/70/17 to avoid any rubbing?

Thanks! I went with th 255s to avoid rubbing, trimming and to be a bit different. Everyone seems to run 285's. Both have there advantages but the 255's work well for me.

Looks awesome. I also went with 255's, but 255/75/17 Cooper AT3 and love them so far. Good luck with the build

Nice rig man. Nice to see a Canadian Pro.

I'm digging those grill lights. Nice looking runner.

 

[mAtTyGlaz]

Over the weekend I installed a set of CBI ditch light brackets along with an Onboardair switch (fits great into blank).

I also installed the ARB diff breather kit and did my locker breather as well.

 

[mAtTyGlaz]

Then took a trip to the mountains and went on a run.

Do you mind explaining more detail on the breather kit, specifically the fittings you used ?
