In the past week I purchased and installed my roof rack then went and played in the snow by the Ancient Forest (east of Prince George BC)! Oh and I picked up a Garmin InReach Explorer+!

Installed my “Murica” decal

Worked on mounting my Tablet to my Magic Mount and then affixed a neonadium magnet to dash to hold my phone while the tablet uses the Magic Mount. Also relubed Freedom Top seals and took them off for afternoon.

Dale the Dog made sure everything went smooth and wasn't ruff.

Before and after

Well today was a bit cool - at -26 C so I planned a bit of work in the shop. Washed the Tacoma to get all the snow and salt off then let it warm up in the shop. I find the Tacoma road noise a bit loud so after doing some googling I purchased some sound proofing material off Amazon and decided to put that in today. After removing the back seats, floor and back storage compartments I found NO sound dampening material at all. REAL DISAPPOINTING TOYOTA! Took a few hours to get all the cuts and tacking done but it looks better and had a few tight fits on the re-install but it is back together. I then put rubber stripping on the tailgate and rear part of box to make it more dust proof. Tomorrow is install the H2O pump and finish the plumping then test it all. I feel a road trip coming up and maybe a bit of winter camping.

Got some SSO sliders for my GX. They're currently being powder coated satin black and will be welded on in a few weeks.

 

[Knitron]

Got the ARB compressor installed. Going to run some stainless steel tubing to the front and rear bumper for ease of airing up.

Looks good man and great install. I threw mine in back on the Garvin rack, out of the way but I had to extend the harness and to keep it safe with the high current and extra length added a bit to the wire diameter. This summer I need to figure out where you will be camping and just show up and say hello.

What's the song that talks about the first cut being the deepest? Brian Adams? Anyway, I know it's the first of many, but damn it's hard. Especially when it happened in my driveway!!! Trying to park two full sized vehicles in a driveway built for two regular sized vehicles isn't the easiest thing I've done, but I still feel like I soooo could have avoided this. Pulling the van out of the driveway & trying to navigate between the truck parked next to it on the right & the light post on the front porch on the left, I scraped the left rear bumper on the brick porch column. Sounded like fingernails on a chalkboard..... Spent the day sanding, primering & painting the damage.

I have sooooooo many projects on my list to do, but time and weather aren't cooperating.

We dropped "Prius Eater" off at Agile Offroad in Santee, CA today. Having the ARB CKMTA12 compressor & a 2 1/2 gallon air tank installed, hooking up the front and rear ARB lockers, having quick disconnect air lines run to the front & rear bumpers, having an S-Pod type switch panel installed, and hooking up lights in the front & rear bumpers. Also having a couple of mechanical issues looked at. Then, broke again for a while until we can save up for the next wave of work to be done.

I run pizza cutters (255/85R16) on my taco :) Went today for my first rotation with them and bought a 5th tire for a full size spare. Had to bend some tire supports under the bed with a hammer, but it fits.

Popped the hood because of a weird air noise and found a vacuum hose had cracked and was letting a lot of air escape. Grabbed some hose and it’s all good now. Last night I put the LED lights in the interior. I need to order the rear door ones and some for my fiancé’s car. They are awesome. Extremely bright.

Also ordered parts for a rear tire carrier build in the next couple weeks. Debating on front control arms for this upcoming wheeling season.

Well I have a build thread "70 K20 Suburban", I mention it because it won't mean anything to the casual reader that I drove my rig about 10 miles in the last 2 days... IT'S ALIVE!!! OMG I'm back! Still have some bugs to work out but all and all its running good for having sat for so long.

Its gorgeous under the cab, cleaned up and painted with all the fun bells and whistles.


The cab still needs body and paint work but I kinda like a bush whacker finish...

Man does this bring back a slew of memories! I had a ‘69 Chevy Carryall I drove all over the eastern states and Maritime Canada and lived out of it for awhile in northern Ohio while working a courier job. Wasn’t four wheel drive, but I took that thing everywhere and had to swap engines with one from an Indian res while exploring Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. Love the look of yours!

Few projects going on today. Made a spare tire maxtrax holder. I don't get why their spare tire holder is so $$$$$.
