I have added values to the pdf above! ****en hell!! I fell off the damn chair!
It's only an estimate and could fluctuate a good amount. Some parts may have been bought cheaper but if I add my hours, which I am sure I have to revise, I'm in at tens of thousands.
Wow!

I've got a lot of time and money in my rig, and realize I'd be lucky to get a 3rd of my money back, and none of the time if I sold it. I'd be ripping someone off if I sold the thing for over $3k, so I might as well hang on to it and keep dumping resources into it. At least it's kinda dependable now...

I ended up doing way to much to this truck. Could have just driven it as was. Oh well. I might try selling, time will tell. I know I won't get no where near what I spent, but I should get a decent amout for it, if the need were to arise.

Almost there! Got a weld your own exhaust kit. A new hood release cable. Mine has the plastic tip broken off, so it's useless. Ready to mount the spare tire carrier and rear anti-sway bar.
Still got a bit of work on the inside.
And sure, the damn think looks like it might need a set of 33" tires!
My current 31's are brand new. Wth am I to do now? Anyone in need of a set of 31" tires??
On to pics.

So I installed the spare tire carrier beneath and got the wiring for the rear plate connected. @Ruben got me hooked with a set of factory bumpers. They are en route. The Kaymars are in the classifieds section, listed for sale. If anyone has interest, make me an offer. I am also considering getting 33" tires. Also reordering new shocks, Ironman do not have rears. I got wrong shocks in the mail.

@ToyotaMatt , your packaging is so impressive! Got the goods, all installed. Thank you for the extras too! At the same time, my OEM emblems arrived.

Waiting on new head unit so I can tidy the dash. I bought a shallow blue tooth only unit, as he old was too deep, having a CD player, and was sticking out of the dash. Will post pics as soon as I get it.

Took this basterd on the road today for the first time. Got an exhaust welded up. Omg, it's awesome. I will make a proper little video, but here's a random pick from the cockpit.
