probably about an hour haha maybe less. the most time consuming part is tightening the bolts that go through the bracket into the t case because there is barely enough room to get a 1/4 turn each time other than thats its pretty simple.

 

I dont like them theyre too tall for me and they ride like hell. But when I had them in my 4runner I liked them because it was alot heavier so they rode alot better and sagged more. I have already pulled the HD spring out of the front pack and am almost thinking about pulling out another one. I would definately go with the 4" springs from what Ive seen they are alot softer when they are broken in.

 

Heres a few interior shots I robbed the sr5 buckets seats out of my old 4runner and used an ammo can for my center console and installed the cb inside of it

 

ah good to know. im glad i asked before i went with the fivers. thanks man! oh and i like the camo seat covers those are sick

 

i like that idea for the cb! i might have to steal it

 

Well I have gotten a few more things done on the truck.
started getting the on board air set up which uses an ac compressor. I didnt take very many pictures but heres somthing that I havent seen before. If you cut the end of the stock ac hose off at the fitting on the compressor. heres a pic


you can drill out the hole to 7/16 like so

then tap it to 1/4" npt and you then have a custom adapter fitting to go to whatever hose you wanna use

Ill take some more pics of the rest of my setup once I get back up to the shop and I also have my rear bumper done so ill get some pics of that also. Thats all for now Sorrry for the crappy pics

 

What kind of CB antenna have you got there attached along the hood?

 

A firestick i think its the 2 foot one

 

yeah, 2 foot firestick looks right

 

and what kind of mount is that?

 

dont know the brand just a stainless fender antenna mount

 

Well I just got done with my on board air setup using the ac compressor and I havent seen a whole lot of pics out there of this setup so here are mine:

Heres the stock fitting on the pressure side that I cut off the aluminum hose the drilled the hole out to 7/16" and tapped to 1/4" NPT


Heres the suction side I just cut the stock ac hose and hose clamped it to a hose barb then theres the inline oiler and filter

Heres the rest of the pressure side. Oil separator and manifold with pressure switch, pressure gauge fitting and safety valve



Heres how I mounted my air pressure gauge and some switches in the cab


And the airtank

 

I also got a rear bumper built heres some of that

 

love that bumper and the a/c air set-up. is that a cb lug on the bumper (left side)? if it is, does the antenna hit the truck at all?
edit: or is it the air outlet? i looked again...

 

quick disco for the air

 

onboard air set up is SWEET SWEET!!
Nice work great build!

 

Thanks man! The air works awesome fills up my tank to 150 psi in about 30 seconds

 

i see it
thats fast. like, really fast. i don't even think any electric set-up goes that quick (?)

i want oba now!

 

Do it! Super easy and not too expensive

 

but i like my a/c in the summer
that's the only thing keeping me from doing so. that and the freon. how did you de-charge yours?
