Npulver's 71 Fj55 Build "Sea Unicorn"

[npulver]

Thanks scrapdaddy I do however feel bad about cutting up a 1800 dollar bumper. Lol

 

[scrapdaddy]

Yeah, that would make me pucker alittle.

 

[npulver]

Ordered up some new lighting. (thanks Jmack...ughhh) Pictures to come today or tomorrow, when it shows up.

 

[J Mack]

I just ordered some JW Speaker headlights after reading about your LED lights, so the way I see it we're even!

 

[npulver]

Sitting up there currently until i can get a full size roof rack made. More parts to store!







This isnt the Rigid or VisionX brand one, but a "knock off" Its from a company that i deal with. This is there Dakota Series light. Comes with a 10 month warranty. Cant complain. I mostly need it for mock up for my rack without having to drop the 1200 bucks on a rigid or visionX. If it lasts a long time, thats even better! (if anybody is curious PM me and i can tell you what its worth)

 

[npulver]

If im bored i'll post pictures tonight of the light output and pattern.

So nice of a pig you have....

 

[npulver]

Set it on the hood for these shots

Low beam



High beam



And BAM! For reference. That hill is about 100 yards away.



Forgot to take a shot of it without my headlights on (doh!)

 

[npulver]

Not really pig related, but I did get my pig a younger brother! 2010 trd with 36k miles, one owner.

Less Charismatic ISNT IT?? ( Joke, nice toy)

 

[npulver]

Certainly doesn't have the same charm as a pig. Lol

 

[npulver]

Well, havent really gotten anywhere with the Pig recently minus finally getting the bumper mounted. I did however put a 3" lift and some tires on the Taco.



And i suppose some bumper pictures, I mounted the 7" lights in the winch slots for now. no point in cutting the wires to them quite yet until i get some replacements.





So hard to take pictures of a black bumper lol

 

[scrapdaddy]

They look good sitting there. Are you going to mount the lights in the bumper holes? Beefy looking.

 

[npulver]

Yea lights will be mounted in the bumper holes. Will run a flood light in the big holes and spot in the smalls.

Started picking up some random supplies for when i start cutting. This is what my painter buddy told me to use for an internal frame coating. Says it works well. Its a sherwin williams product and has a 360 degree spray tip with a fairly long wand. should work well inside the rockers and some other areas.

 

[PabloCruise]

Does that Shield need to be top coated?

 

[npulver]

Does that Shield need to be top coated?

It is its own coating, so no, its not supposed to be top coated.

Here's a nice little video of there corrosion shield products

 

[npulver]

It starts.....
