Oooo Man.
Those babies take the whole thing to a new level! Not to mention the Blackbox!

Dropped by @Cruisers and Co to get my fix.

3.0” 0.065” wall 304 stainless exhaust, all tig welded

Icon wheels with internal beadlocks, and Kenda 37s. This is the final wheel/tire combo.

Some additional protection at the LCA mounts.

Everything looks so good...

Going to keep it all inside the frame rail. Will also add a bunch of heat shields to keep the passenger floor board nice and cool

Beautiful!

The passengers will appreciate the heat shielding.

Also why it shoots straight down instead of trying to follow the body. I wanted a large air gap at the hottest spot

You mean 5K under budget, right?

Last time it will look quite this nice

Paint or powdercoat?

 

[Cruisers and Co]

Paint - 2K epoxy primer followed by a 2K Satin black.

This way Jim or us can touch it up after wheeling without too much prep or hassle.

I'm about to do something to my frame. It's in great shape with just some surface rust on parts of it. So, if you don't mind sharing, how was it prepped and what did you do inside the boxed portion?

Which brand did you use?

Exactly!
It's a used Toyota...

Is that a regular body paint? Or a frame/chassis paint?
