Nice job on the build, don't see that often in this town. I didn't realize they do fab like that at Trux, I always thought it was a bolt on chrome accessory shop.

For the most part it is.. I've just been friends with steve for years now.. And hes been kind enough to let me do all my work there.. I cant thank him enough!! Plus Ryan (the installer) is one of my best friends who has a bad ass cruiser. All of us down there love the sport sp that makes it alot of fun..

Well the fans finally came in!!!




And all seems to be working perfectly.. I ran fairly hard in the mud all afternoon without a single overheating issue..




God damn I cant wait for the spring!!

Here ya go Lopez...


My First "Little" Project truck.

Nice build up!

I don't want to start a pissing match(which seems to happen around here) but you don't seem to mind cutting the truck up so why didn't you run those rear shocks up into the bed a little higher? You look like you are not getting the full travel out of them the way they are mounted?

nice looking taco :awesomework: :beer: :beer:

Its actually perfect.. Fully compressed at the bump stop Ive got about 1.5" of stroke left.. and at full droop right arout 14" shaft showing.. And being 15" travel shocks thats pretty good I think.

wow man, the last time i saw that truck it was still IFS and you were talking bout solid axling it..

Gotta thank Andrew for Yakima Truck Club for all the great pics!
