Nice. My bumper is gonna be looking getto this weekend. I didn't get a chance to paint it yet so it's still halfway painted and raw steel where I made cutouts and welded more to it.
 
its all good my turn signals are ghetto too. they are 6" oval i screwed into the sheet metal behind the bumper. they were only 16$ and get the job done for now.

no one will notice your bumper cause they will be staring at that unpainted glass and long travel suspension.

ps i need a ride in your rig now that you have the bump stops up front and all.
 
Why don't you just switch the running lights and blinker wires? That's what I did on mine when I ditched my stock bumper. The lights blink fast because the running light is smaller and throws off the flasher but it works and you really don't need the running lights.

And my fenders are going to stay that way for awhile. They don't bother me being white. Breaks up the hidious grey.
 
Let me know sometime this weekend and we can go work the bumpstops a little bit. They made a huge difference on the big hits.
 
Yea I could of got it done but I've been offshore since last Monday. Hoping to finish up here before Thursday so I can pack some stuff for this trip.
 
Just came back an awesome road trip to Roys shop :party::party::party::party: . Going to paint then tonight and put them on on Thursday or Friday. Side note I have some hella 500s for sale, if you need them for superstition.

I'll prob end up doing that and getting a diff relay so they blink normal but when I put my bumper on i moved all the wires around and this was easiest for now. Took like 5 min.
I still have to adjust my coilivers and wire my new LEDs before superstition and I'm on a 8 day working streak until Thursday.
 
Well this is now in the back of the truck. Now i just need to find some f67. Actually turned out that I knew the guy. He's a good friend of a guy I work with.

sweet i really like where this is going.
hey if you want to get rid of the hyperflash on the blinkers go to auto zone and get relay ep 35 12.99 and plug it in instead of the factory one. if you turn the blinkers on you can find the right relay without tearing your car apart. its on the back of the fuse panel inside.

What a waste of $12. Does the hyper blink bother you that much?
 
Yea it really doesn't brother me at all. I don't use blinkers just merge and people get out the way. That's what the bumper is for. But honestly I might have to go check that out if it keeps bothering me, or graph the old one into the corner light.

I think doing this rear end will be fun. Just need to figure out what all I need to do to get it right. It will probably be a few more months before I finish anything with it.

ill keep an eye out for those leaf packs. you can also talk to this old guy doug that will be out at superstition, he builds leaf pack for people, generally uses a mix of toyota and chevy leafs.
 
So I should be rolling into camp around 10am on Friday. I'm heading down with a group from the ventura area. Just still need to bolt all my winch/air compressor parts down, check every suspension bolt, throw a coat of paint on the bumper and find the short on my winch in control.
 
Got to love when Toyota sells you T100 tie rods...

Broker, what time are you going to be up and moving Saturday morning. I'm wondering what time I should be there
