    Sunday update....

    Almost done!!

    Friday night I swapped out the rod ends on the shocks


    Saturday was able to rebuild the leafs w all new hardware


    Fixed up my janky exhaust tips to point somewhat down and to passenger side


    Then finish welded everything , painted and reinstalled everything!

    Today (Sunday) I installed new brake lines and reattached hard lines and sensor wires... started to bleed brakes but have to go to my god daughters birthday party...so only thing left is finish brake bleeding, pressurize shocks and bumps and install wheels and clean everything up. Then mount my bumper. And I’m all done!! Should be back on the road by Wednesday!!

    Make sure you cycle that thing several times and check the lines real well.

    Cycle the suspension?? Did that... the brakes I’m only doing enough to get me to the dealer and I’ll have them double check all the lines and rebleed the brakes because I hate doing it and don’t trust it ever lol

    Yeah I know you cycled it, but I meant to double check that all your lines are good, no interference and that they have the proper stretch

    Well, it's official.. Rear LT Build is done...

    sorry for the dark photos it was late when I finally got the wheels on and sitting on its own.

    Still doing more work

    Mounting rear bumper
    Installing new BD chase lights
    Installing new grill (see pic below)
    Installing all new BD front lights
    Installing new Headlights and tail lights (see pic below)

    and a few little odds and ends

    Anyway, here she is sitting on her own.


    The tail lights you can see in the pics but here is what they look like from the site I ordered


    and the headlights are these


    And this is a pic of the grill idea, not a picture of my grill... but I'm doing the same thing.. with the OG FJ Toyota badge and everything


    gonna give the truck a nice fresh new look!

    Anyway thanks for everyone following along with this endeavour

    Nope I ordered LED 12000 lumen bulbs for them both low and high beam!

    It’s coming ... see next post!

    So I had the wrap custom printed in Canada, the pattern was made for two sema trucks I loved it so much I tracked the guy down who made it he printed me a full roll and shipped it.. then I had a local guy install. It was 1300 for material and 1100 for install.

    They are not I looked at them and liked the led DRL better on these see next post!

    Btw the three holes at the top of the grill have orange lights like the raptor... I’m omitting them because I think it will look cleaner.

    Btw I painted the grill black because I didn’t notice it was Gray in the advert... so I spray painted it black I’m sure you can find the same thing in black on Amazon too just didn’t bother dealing w it since a 3$ can of spray paint fixed my problem
