Haven’t had an update on here for almost a year. I got myself a Porsche 718 Cayman GTS in January and the wife got a Porsche Macan GTS just recently. Truck has been on the back burner and recently most likely lost timing and idles terribly. I may try plugs and coil packs first, but have a...
I was planning on it but I really like the backlight feature of these lights. They come on when the running lights/raptor lights come on. I don't like the look of light bars but have always been a fan of the "retro" circular style.
I also plan to run a larger trans cooler and relocate the power...
I had 3 Baja Design LP6'S added to the front Evil Hellion Bumper. 2 amber floods on the sides and a white spot for the center. DMF Offroad in Riverside CA helped out on the install and made it super clean. Wiring was routed directly behind the lights with small holes drilled in the valence under...
Still waiting on the custom plate...
Making a nice wishlist for the truck for early next year.
Baja design LP6's for the front bumper
GFC topper (shell) + universal 3rd brake light
454 Motorsports Delta spare tire mount
Custom jack mount in corner of bed
KHC bed supports
SDHQ spindle...
Finally got the Audi all dialed in with swaybars, tune, strutbar, transmission mount, lowering springs, and new wheels/tires.
Time to focus on the truck now. I always liked custom plates and have had them for my vehicles, so decided to order one for the raptor. I went with Rapterd (since...
Sadly nothing new with the truck. Been buying parts for the Audi (wheels, tires, swaybars, solid mounts, tune) so that has taken most of the spotlight and the install is scheduled mid May. Once the car is done, I will be switching my focus back to the truck.
I have been toying with the idea of...
My truck is basically held together with duct tape, bubble gum, and a dream so I think it would explode if I ran a SC. Also the price of that bad boy + install is like 1/3 of the cost of my truck hahah. Truck may be slow as hell but at least it sounds good compared to a Gen 2 :cool:
Honestly the truck isn't bad. I mean it had heavier and larger tires on it when I bought it so luckily I only know the slow life so doesn't bother me. For being the slowest truck at the meet it wasn't that bad and held it's own. I was more impressed with the speed that the stock gen 2's can keep...
Finally got around to taking the truck out twice last weekend. First it was a quick day trip out by Joshua Tree to do some target shooting with some buddies.
Stayed a bit late so got to use my lights. Dust light works perfectly, but my headlights are absolutely awful. Reinforced the need for...
Nice. Reasoning behind a GTS instead of a GT4? Driveability or price? Been eyeing both of those recently as a potential future upgrade. I want a GT4 but the wife wants the RS6 to replace her current Audi.
I kind of do, but kind of don't. Honestly my paint is pretty awful all around so I don't worry about it at this point. For someone that cares about the paint, I would definitely recommend not taking them off. I also thought about getting the electric AMP running boards that pop down when the...
Had quite a busy end to last year and beginning of this year. Got some good snow over the holidays (for Socal) and since the truck currently doesn't have a working heater, it stayed under the snow until it melted off.
No updates on the truck besides that the KO2's aren't a death sentence in...
I had ADV for my old Tacoma and it fit really damn good compared to the fiberwerx I had on my past ranger. Overall sounds like a badass combo! Gonna eventually get upgraded suspension to fill everything out? Fiberglass is a paint in the *** and I personally would avoid it unless going...
Truck? No other truck really gets my attention. A gen 3 would be kinda cool but eh for that price I would get my dream car, a new Audi RS6. Perfect car in my eyes. Finding myself having to use the truck more often so I don't consider going in for the Audi :Big Laugh:
I was just looking into stock length earlier this week, so that eliminates most of the options for Icon. It appears that the billet RPG ones work, but they are quite pricey. Seems to be a lot more options when going +1 or +2.
I dig the look. Definitely the way to go if you have sensors. I have their Helion bumper, but have no sensors so works for me. Dig the placement of the S2's on yours though, wish I had that!
Well I can't seem to edit the above posts anymore lol, so I will have to keep creating new posts in the future. Making a wish list for next few years for things to add on/update.
Smaller Items for next year-ish hopefully:
SDHQ spindle gussets
Stainless brake lines
Evil Dead Pedal
WOG Power...
No issues with my 5.4. I am in the minority that actually kinda wanted a 5.4 to squeeze a bit more MPG on long hauls. I don't need my truck to try and be "fast" all the time. I can see the positives of the 6.2 for sure, but wasn't a necessity for me. I think no one will agree with me but oh well...
Recently took the truck out for its real first maiden voyage in the dirt after almost a year of owning it. Was very surprised and it completely blows my previous long travel taco out of the water in terms of performance. Learned one of my headlights had all but 1 of its tabs broken, but nothing...
