Wow, nice work, your really making some progress! The grill looks great!

Thanks rustED! I'm hopefully going to check out a bed next weekend. I plan on getting the truck repainted the same color. I really like that color blue.

You are making progress. Don't look at the big picture but each little step and you will get it done before you know it. Each fix is one step closer. You are doing great.

JusToyotAdkins

Thanks a lot Terry. It sure is coming a long nicely though

Today i found out the alt was bad so i went ahead and replaced that. The front right ball joint pops only when it's in 4 wheel drive and turning. Probably gonna replace that later on down the road.

JusToyotAdkins

Wait would that be a u joint or a ball joint popping???

JusToyotAdkins

I'm thinking about getting these wheels..


With maybe some tires like this


but 33's instead.

What do yall think??

Roark

That combo would look good!! No opinion on the Dunlop, but I'm sure you can find some good reviews of them.

Are those real beadlocks?

JusToyotAdkins

No they're not but i don't imagine i would need real locks but i do like the look of them and they're fairly cheap.

I read that the mud rovers are a pretty good mud tire which i'm just gonna use this truck as as a dd and a toy.


Little bit of editing fun

Picked up a universal cup holder at the parts store and screwed it in.

Where did you get them gear shifters ?

JusToyotAdkins

They're custom made

JusToyotAdkins

Anyone know where i can get these fancy front bumper side plug things?

I'm not sure if those are the same diameter as the ones they use for the rear bumper side skirts, but if they're the same I have 2, you can have em.

JusToyotAdkins

Thanks for the offer rustED, but I figured if i get some they'll just fall out too

Put in a little bit of work tonight.

Installed some new plug wires



Redid my skid plate. What do y'all think?

And I fixed the fuel sending unit.

Found a bed today for 25 bucks. I couldn't pass it up even though the body lines don't match up. I guess it looks better than no bed.

Here are some pics









Also added a much bigger emblem to the grill

Nice score on the bed, cant beat $25! It actually looks better than I would have imagined, nice work so far!

JusToyotAdkins

Thanks again rustED. The only real problem is that the bed sticks out about a half inch on both sides past the cab

Did a few upgrades today.. First off I extended both diff breathers cuz I really don't want dirt or water in there. I ran the front one up on top of right fender well inside the engine bay while I ran the rear one back up to the left tail light housing. Another thing I did was installed these waterproof led tag lights.
