MillerPKA Build Thread #2

[Dirtyfingers]

Wheels are gunmetal, but I checked out your 5 stars and that wet black look is very rad

Some of the trim pieces getting some much needed love

DUDE! I'm so glad you found another one! I can't wait to follow this thread. Hope to see you at some meets!

welcome home prodigal son...

good work so far.

as im sure you know those wheels are limited edition, and to buy them from the dealer you will need to be the owner of an JFC that came with them or at least have the vin number to order them. toyota wont even sell them without documentation do dealers or parts depts with out some sort of verification that they are going to a origonal FJC. so it might be easier to just get a set of basic FJC wheels and have them painted or powder coated to be a replica wheel. might be easier in the long run...

but yeah ill keep my eyes open for you around portland

[larrylegend]

Glad to see you are back, looking forward to the new build.

 

[MillerPKA]

Thanks for the love everyone. So this is how she's sitting after the first full day. I'd say it's a good transformation, but in the grand scheme of things I'm barely scratching the surface.

[JWaldz]

Welcome back buddy. Knew it was just a matter of time

Sorry to hear about your previous rig. Looking forward to the transformation this one will receive.

So some slight updates sans pictures.

There are a few dings on this car, and the worst 2 were the driver rear door and front passenger door. I picked up both replacements yesterday and hope to swap out this weekend.

I am in the middle of ordering the lift and armor, working with Toytec on the final order. I thought I'd announce that today, General Tire has come on as an official sponsor of this build, so if you had any question about what tires I was going with this time around, that should answer it

Off to a good start!

 

[BrianSD_42]

Can they sponsor me as well? (Lol)

I've been buying and reping General Grabber AT2s for years now!

Couldn't help with a sponsor but I did send you a link for a cheap and local set of 35" AT2s!

New build looks good so far!

 

[MillerPKA]

Thanks to user SC4Runner12 for keeping an eye out for the TRD Anthracites. Got in touch with the buyer and am picking the wheels up tonight!

Two of the biggest pieces are now out of the way. S**ts about to get real

I'm glad it worked out for you and you can get rid of your Tacoma wheels. I can't wait to see how this build progresses.

Thanks man didn't know you were still around! You sold the truck right? Are you in lurker mode like I was for 3 years??

This guy right here, you can thank him for finding the wheels. Without him I definitely would have missed out..hell I had to offer him an extra $50 to renege on the person he had lined up to buy them already. Sorry, not sorry.
