To finish off the old ARB front bumper.

Running caps, resto on them in the works now.

Our check list is short on this one now. Going out Friday for front windshield and rear hatch glass tint.

I don’t think I have ever plugged a Cruiser into a Tundra!




Walk around of the Cruiser.

Here is the tailgate storage we designed and built.

New tool kit, jack and black Weathertech floor mats.

We had the center cap paint color matched to the wheels. Wheels are powder coated and center caps are painted by us. It is not a 100% match but I think looks good. White fluorescent light vs sunlight and in sunlight it matches better.

Looks great! Is the color a dark grey or black?

What else?

AC getting charged on Monday. Final polish and ceramic wax right before it gets picked up. Going to raise the front a little via new coil springs. Modded the fan clutch with 20k oil, this Cruiser will live in a hot part of the country.

Besides that, just more break in miles, testing things and checking things. Will do our break in oil change soon and do final adjustment of timing. The Cruiser is going home June 15th! A week later it is going on a one month trip!

More or less gun metal.

A few more pics.

We had the front and rear glass tinted last weekend.

We got some different leds for the dash recently, we were getting dead spots in the cluster with other leds we had.

Full bright

All the way down on the rheostat.

Like I say, I like the black Weathertechs with oak interior.

The center caps look great. Do you have a method for painting the Toyota logo?

Absolutely beautiful job mister! You and your crew knocked this one out of the park.

All I can say is I’m jealous, I would be thrilled to work at a shop like yours

Just did 80 break-in miles, up over the mountains. Weighed the Cruiser too, exactly 6,000lbs.

I will post more pics and such later today.

Carefully, by hand.

A few short videos.






Not a lot to say, the Cruiser is fantastic, brand new. It is as quiet as a 200-series inside.

Dang! Nice work!

Final round of clean up before ceramic coating.

The Cruiser is getting picked up on Wednesday next week. So I will be racking up a bunch of miles this weekend before we change out the break in oil and adjust final timing. Couple of other little things and it is ready to go, it’s doing a 20hr drive back to Texas right out of the gates!

Also coming down to the end of our content on this build. I will do a bunch of pics and videos this weekend and a few Tuesday and that will be it for my updates on this build.

Cheers

A few more pics.

ARB compressor mounted here, we made a mount that goes behind the panel. Only port @ohsix wanted was here in the back.

Baja Designs cargo lights that trigger on/off when hatch is lifted.

Perfect location for these kind of items.

Cheers
