This is a one-off custom 3D printed titanium CB antenna mount for the RIGHT side rear hatch. The concept is copied from the Yodateq mounts. I modeled the antenna mounting hole closer to the truck than yodateq and therefore it's really only good as an antenna mount. Mounting a light would...

Something went wrong on a ferry and an (unoccupied) 80 series rolled off into the water... stays floating for quite some time!
Looks like we have at least 45 seconds to remove seatbelts and find a glass shattering hammer.

Somewhat related to your struggle:
I was replacing the timing belt on a friends Highlander. Crank bolt needs removed to access it. Tried the breaker-bar/starter bump method two dozen times with no results. Bought the HF 1/2" earthquake (700ft-lbs reverse) impact... still no luck. Took it to...
Yup, CDL installed and one of the two shafts removed allows you to drive around... no harm to anything.
A couple guys on here drove around for months that way. I've done it for a couple weeks at a time.

If you dont have a CDL switch, you can use your hazard switch (after...
Things have really picked up at today, so this will be a "short" post. I will gather my thoughts and ideas into a new thread later this month to explain the process entirely. I've always wanted to make a little side business of printing metal parts for forum communities I participate in. This...
I'll definitely make a write up about the process. I'm in a meeting right now, but will put something together in a little bit. Depending how in-depth it gets, I might just make a new thread.
Thanks! I've worked in the additive metals field for 5 years, titanium, inconel, aluminum, cobalt chrome, coppers, stainless, etc...
Typically my day revolves around printing aerospace components and medical implants/devices... it's nice to have a little break and make some stuff for my cars...
Can the fancy machines play too?
Spent a few minutes at work today and threw some on our titanium 3d printer.
Your engine will melt before these do.:flipoff2:
If you want projectors, retro fit is the way to go. In my ricer days (still cringe when I look back at my previous taste in car mods) I had ebay projector headlights in my accord. Look cool? kinda... functional? BARELY. I'm pretty sure the light pattern thrown out was worse than stock...
