momo.75's '03 Sport 4.7L V8 Build

Sorry man. A_Hul has first dibs, but i am probably going to keep it so whenever i sell my truck i would put it back on and transfer my WM rack.

I told you i would write up a lease agreement, i can be at your house in an hour with it in writing, i mean i could simply borrow it until you sell the rig. Better yet.....DONT EVER SELL IT!!!

I don't plan to...lol. Hopefully my kids will learn to drive in it.

Momo Hands down 1 of the Nicest looking Rigs around. Bad Ass man.

I appreciate that.

Rack Update:
Josh aka [MENTION=77764]Whitson Metalworks[/MENTION] came by this morning to bring my rack. Besides a great fabricator, he is just a really cool guy. You can tell he takes pride in his work. We test fit the rack, ran to eat lunch, then returned to take it off for painting.

I have been taking some pics during the test fitting and while i have started the prepping for painting. I am going to wait till it is done before i post pics and my write up about it. That way it is all within one post. I will say that i am very excited about this. Stay tuned.
 
I figure since i will be rattle-canning the rack I should revive one of my old logos from when i used to paint lexan bodies for offroad r/c racing....lol

Okay, its 3pm central time, should be about time for some pics.

The wait is killing me...

Guess I will have to drive around this weekend until I see your 4runner.

lol.....was able to get it all scuffed with Scotch Brite and wiped down with Denatured alcohol. Even got all the primer shot. i thought i was gonna have to wait till tomorrow to start shooting paint, but i had misread the can. I was able to start shooting the paint, but really only got one coat on the bottom. I will be up and at it tomorrow. I hope to have it mounted tomorrow afternoon or Sunday morning. I will post all the pics then.....stay tuned!....:snacker:
 
Ok, ok, ok.....here are a couple of shots from the test fitting. The pics don't do it justice. It is going to look so much better finished in black. I will repost these when i do my write up









trust me, it is killing me as well. I want to rush it so bad but know that would be the worst thing.
 
[MENTION=165]momo.75[/MENTION] -how did you wire your backup lights? Directly into the rear lights or a switch?

Right now they are tapped into the reverse lights. [MENTION=50591]gaterose[/MENTION] is going to help me wire them where they will come on with the reverse lights as well as having the ability to turn them on by themselves.

Do you remember the color of the wire you tapped into? I am going to do the same thing.

Honestly i can't remember what color it was. I have a guess, but don't want you to go on a guess....lol. I will look to see if i can tell which one it was.
 
Temporary pics till i get better pics tomorrow.

I will say this, i am very impressed with the craftsmanship of Josh aka [MENTION=77764]Whitson Metalworks[/MENTION]. It turned out better than i had imagined. Thanks Josh!







 
Nice rack!!

I think that someone needs to set up a Rocky Mountain region fabrication center!
:hail:

4Runner is looking fantastic, Morris!!
