    I think a UZ with ITB's and manual conversion on my truck will get panties dropped in a mile radius don't you think? haha

    Why is your hood gapped open, for engine temps? Im not criticizing, so please don't take it that way. Other people on here have theirs the same way, so I'm just curious.

    so baller it takes over your emotions and you just have a truck-gasm. it happens. :ROFL:

    Yup! works quite well, but the gap isn't very pronounced right now. its open about a few millimeters.

    functional. lol the look doesnt even bother me one bit.
    Go for it! I'd like to see it some time soon:waytogo:

    Thanks man, I'm just stoked to keeping moving forward! I wanna remove the bed for two reasons in general.
    1. When I reinstalled it, the bolts weren't torqued all the way, weird....
    2. Crossmember above pumpkin is hitting the pumpkin.
    and probably clean up the frame since i'm down there.

    Bro your truck is getting cleaner and cleaner looking. Hey just my 2 cents but have you thought about spraying your grill red with the middle section and the toyota emblem gold that would look sick and bring the whole thing together. Sorta like this but in red ang gold. Keep up the good work bro.

    Lol thanks everyone, she's treating me well lately.
    POS?! Yeah, it is :D
    Thanks Kawai! (time for my historical lesson. Imperial JPN flag is in the center, the current Navy JPN flag is offset with 16rays, the current Army JPN flag is offset with 8 rays. My truck is similar to the Navy one, but closer to the top corner. so none of that imperial Japan crap)
    Haha Javi, I spot them like no other.
