Anyway im posting this up just to show u guys what ive been up to since i got rid of my yota. Purchased a 86.5 Hardbody longbed from my friends' dad last year and the progress has been slow but ive been putting in work. So far what ive got done is: ~4" front drop, ~4+" rear 18" Titan 5 spoke wrapped in 225/40 off brand tires Tinted tails, turn signals, and amber on corner light 5% tint Grafted 89-94 yota hood bulge Rusted 4x4 fenders Pioneer head unit SBW swap Thrush 24" glasspack (i think its a 2 footer) Painted radio bezel I think thats it soooooooo......ON WITH THE PICS!!!! Stock and pretty much how i bought it. The grille was installed after the pic was taken.. After the first drop which was about 2/3 and the topper was off!! Taking yota parts to the recyclers After getting the 18s on and the yota hood welded on Pulled middle leaf and cranked torsions MORE Had 5 coworkers in the back having lunch replacing the rear shocks weeks after pullin a leaf and the rusted fenders appear!! doin some bodywork Skipped work that morning MWHAHAHA!!!! Painted radio bezel And pretty much as it sits now Future plans: Roll pan possibly newer frontier tailgate different front bumper Bags are a maybe. C-notch forsure Bucket seats new mids and bass later more bodywork crystal clear headlights w/HIDs new fenders something with the grill pathfinder quarter panels grafted to the bed. ...more crap that i cant think of right now but thats the idea.
Looks good man but one thing you forgot in your future plans is probably the most important piece of info I can give. Buy another Toyota. hahahah
you bought that off dan's dad then huh he is one of our newest mods over on infamousnissan. and you got a nice start there
SBW= Solid Back Window SMCTOY- im debating redrilling the hangars. I need to notch it n flare the bedsides before I drop the rear anymore. I have a lil over an inch before the tire hits the bedside. And I will be getting another Yota in the future jus dnt know wen. Yota4life- I actually sold the roof to some dude in LA from No Regrets. And no it wasnt a 4x4 it was just high as fck. Thanks for all the replies guys
Alright so plans have changed, ima put the truck for sale within the next week or two. After thinking things over for a few weeks ima just sell it and put the $$ towards something newer n more dependable. More than likely guna be a car tho. I need a DD that i know i wont chop up so ima be getn a 4 door. Im thinkin bout buyin another dodge/plymouth neon. But thats still not guna happen for another while so in the meantime... Yesterday i sanded down all the rust and primed the fenders. Today i painted them black. Still needa paint the whole thing black. Just getn it ready to sell. N hope it goes quik. Anyone here interested? Lol
Thats a 4" drop? Yeah i agree redrill the rear hangers and a 3" block and you will just about be sitting on frame. Throw some "flip flops" in as a bumpstop and roll the bedsides a bit and should fit. Looking good though. Heres some inspiration
FCK MAN!! Well i put this dam thing up for sale for a good while. and i got alot of nibbles but no one was willing to negotiate. so for now im keeping it. im guna invest a lil into the engine to make sure it wont crap out on me like its done once before. but anyway heres a few pics for u whores. As of now its all flat black and all mismatched but i can live with it. Oh no more "For Sale" signs I got the 4Runner bumper from my toyota back so i might be putting it on this bish. not too sure yet
Lol. I thought about goin with a KA but not sure yet. I still needa flip the tow ball upside down. Lol
