    Its been a minute, working on the light bar linear actuator linkage system.
    I have finalized the locations of all of the pivots and have cycled it to confirm.
    Just need to finish mounting everything to the chassis.

    I think this has crossed the line into a trophy truck rather than a prerunner.

    High budget teams have prerunners that utilize the same suspension components, engine package, and a nearly identical chassis as the race truck (trophy truck).
    Allowing for components to be interchangeable if a breakage may occur on either platform.

    Have done nothing this month just keeping the thread alive until we work on this again properly.
    here's some eye candy.

    ive always felt the default d series prerunner was lacking in some areas but the trophy truck was a bit too much, this is a nice balance between the 2 that i am excited for!

    Maybe Some day, We're slammed with other stuff right now preparing for KOH
    I wanted to keep posting little things here and there about this truck every month to keep the thread alive so I didn't need to do a mega bump later down the road but I gave up doing that when I wasn't actually motivated to work on this project.
