Thinking about getting the marlin or Trail gear tacoma Front bumper! Has anyone done this yet? I believe it could be done!

 

[etc.]

I like the color of the Tacoma. Its like a shiney primer

 

[Baja Runner]

I'm sure the Tacoma bumpers from either Marlin or Trail Gear would work with mounting, not sure about body panel interference but I'm sure you could get it to work.

Yeah I remember this 4Runner from Yotatech!

Both rigs look great!

The Runner was Chris Rolsin Old rig!

Both rigs look great!

Thanks man! I took me a Lil over a year to build the sas rig!

The tacoma wasn't cutting anymore when the family went wheeling! Not enough room! Chris wanted a Sas and i Needed the room! :bigok:

Thinking about Cutting the front bumper and getting the Addicted Bumper!:guitar2::reddance:

I'm thionking about build a Swing away tire carrier. I found some scrap steel laying around the shop. Then been cruising the net looking at bumpers and found a tire carrier i liked and it's gonna be simple to build.

Quit yer' thinking and start welding!

Quit yer' thinking and start welding!

I guess i'm thinking to much! Alright then i'm gonna gather some parts and supplies to build me a swing away tire carrier. I just need to design a hinge system for the tire carrier.

 

[muddertrucker99]

I got this for free today! Gonna mount it in the cubby hole under the radio!

 

[4-Ripcord]

That aint gonna fit under the radio. I used to have a cobra29, ive tried. The only options for that slot is a uniden 520, cobra 19, or a unit made specially for a 1DIN slot. The uniden and cobra units also fit in the ashtray spot.

 

[muddertrucker99]

WHo said that i cant trim it to fit? I know it ain't gonna be a drop in by no means! I had a buddy install one in his tacoma. Well it wasn't a cobra but its the same size!

 

[4-Ripcord]

Its too deep. Give it a try though. Maybe you can make it work!

Unless your saying it's to long! Also thought about mounting it on the passenger side between the airbag and glove box. Or under the glovebox by the radio cluster. What do you think?

 

[4-Ripcord]

Take a look at my old build thread (link in my sig). I had my cobra29 mounted on the side of the center console. With my uniden, i just mounted it in the ashtray spot. No pics up yet on that thread. If you search the thread "cb radio in 3rd gen" there are lots of ideas. My ashtray pic is on the last page of that thread.

 

[muddertrucker99]

I got the ashtray mounted one now! Just wanting something with more options!

 

[muddertrucker99]

Welp i blew the diff the other day! So its time to regear the rear and change out the ARB for a Detroit! Pulled the diff and found out that there was 10 teeth missing

 

[muddertrucker99]

The new Diff is in and the old is out! Ok time to get some wheeling in and move on to the next update or mod on my wonderful list of things to do.:whipping2
