Ah okay, kind of close. Saw your profile picture and thought you might be by Virginia Beach. Well if you ever need an extra hand let me know. I love working on these trucks but my own budget holds me back. So working on other's trucks scratches my itch without costing me money. Used to have a bunch of spare parts too but I'm pretty close to selling off what I don't need.
Question: what did you use to deaden the doors? Protecto-wrap has alot of different products. How has the frost king deadening been holding up?
On the first page I show a picture of the stuff I used in the doors. It's Protecto Wrap and it comes in a 8" or so roll. It's about $15 a roll and I used one roll in the front doors and the sides along the back seats. I didn't do full coverage, wall to wall. I used enough to counter the hollow "drum" effect. The doors seem much more solid and close with a "thunk" instead of the old hollow sound. I did not put down anything on the floor. My floor was pristine and I'm afraid everyone who sticks down sound barrier are not going to be able to tell if a rust spot breaks out underneath. I would put down something removable. The Protecto Wrap was in the roofing area at Home Depot.
The Frost King in the rear is still going strong. It's been down at least two years. Right now it's open and I can see it because I haven't put back the plastic panels. It's sticking fine. I used one roll and I had a lot left over. It was sold in the weather stripping area at Home Depot.
You have brought this truck a long ways from where it was at. It is a great looking truck now. Also having one to make it on a long trip and back is some bragging rights. Great job on it.
Since last summer we have done the Zuk mod and cranked the front. My son recently added a CB radio and a dorky magnetic antenna that can be taken off easily. We took it to the Outer Banks last week and posed it at the VA/NC state line. The fence that runs into the ocean is the state line. The VA side is a sanctuary so no driving on the beach It was cold and few people were there. Then we had a huge storm.
Nervo - real beauty you have there. Back on page 3 of this thread I see a fire extinguisher on pass floorboard, do you have some contraption for mounting it there or is it just laying? If mounted, does it slide with the seat? Thinking of places and ways to mount an extinguisher in mine.

Not much happening but I wanted to show off these cup holders. They are metal and work great. A little expensive but they are a permanent improvement. This is how they look in my 4Runner: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-4Run...NYoSj-&vxp=mtr
