Transforming Old Parts Into Pieces Of Art!

[@eduardonavarro3140]

That bronce color would look amazing on the wheels💯

[@tommyrazor11]

We Cerakote Glock Lowers which are Polymer. We have coated plastic. The prep determines the durability

[@MussaKZN]

Take a sanding block and sand off the coating on the raised TOYOTA logo on the valve cover.

[@aztecwar]

Everything looks super sick as always!!!

[@coreyperez13]

3 words: Looks Good! Inspiring!

[@williamrose3920]

That’s going to look really good. Keep doing what you do Austin

[@jeffsmith5657]

Just did this exact Cerakote color scheme on my 22re a few weeks ago! Looks awesome!

[@Quebecer_Powerstroke]

Always love what you are doing. Thanks for this.

[@qwasti76]

Nicer than brand new!

[@ronthompson2366]

Looking great 👍... now Looking forward to the engine build and seeing what's next. Then the FJ... It's all good 👍

[@cookieintune]

Always awesome color scheme is really good I like it

[@JoshD10]

Wow. Very nice. Great color

[@monkeyelvis]

Awesome! I wish I could like this video 100 times. Hoping to do something similar to a 5vz soon. Really love what you’re doing with this project!

[@CB-hr6zs]

The parts look amazing

[@FlynDirty1]

Have no idea what the time lapse was on that but those looked amazing.

[@jebert327]

Looks good

[@czariobourne822]

That bronze is nice!!! Good choice. Wonder why you didnt paint the oil pan bronze as well

[@conservativeokie]

Love the color combinations! Looks like a new / larger sandblaster is calling your name… Have you ever considered dustless blasting? Love the channel Austin! Keep it up!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@austinniemela]

Yes I need a new blaster! Dustless? I’ll have to check that out, never heard of it!

[@pdx1jmh]

Only rubber cannot be cerakoted. Good for everything except rubber. Looks great.

[@cindyzepeda4585]

Thank you!!

Love your channel found it watching Devin, you should help him out with painting! Haha

[@cyberhornthedragon]

wish id had the powdercoat when i was rebuilding my 22re after days of electrolysis to blast rust off i had to paint everything but the top of the valve cover i polished painted the sides

[@kayejaye261]

Parts turned out nice. Thanks for cerekote paint. Was going to send out to get ARParts done. Going to try that bronze. Great vid as always. I like what your doing with the Hilux. It's your truck. Have great weekend.

[@voltagedrop9831]

Amazing job!!!

[@ابوعبدالملك-ز8خ]

excellent

[@vytas5584]

I just want to do this all day to every engine part

[@rustedratchetgarage6788]

Do you need a block ive got 20r and 22r

[@mikejensen-fogt4662]

looks awesome man! random question... what do you run for solvent in your parts washer??? 🤔

[@WandergeistMedia]

I was just going to ask this same thing lol That part of the video also got me curious

[@hookset4137]

I put that valve cover on my 22r and the lifters where whackin the top may need the round top one if it does that!!!

[@vmoney9106]

You probably torqued the valve cover bolts on too tight, both 22re (85+) and the rounded 22r valve cover are the same height

[@meeceboy78]

How many oz of cerakote did you get to spray those?

[@frediefarmer]

👍🏽🇺🇸👍🏽 love the colors

[@Just_me1776]

Did you sell the red truck with the flatbed?

[@PacificNWexplorer]

What’s that green tape you use for painting called?

[@austinniemela]

I have a link in the description!

[@jaimerosa9781]

What was the cost of everything for the truck

[@حسينمكطوف-غ1و]

[@rustedratchetgarage6788]

That valve cover will only fit 85 and later model Motors it won't fit yours without changing over the studs that hold the valve cover down to the correct length ones from what I remember

[@vmoney9106]

Nope, that will fit. I have the earlier rounded 22r cover and the 85+ and they are the same height

[@rustedratchetgarage6788]

@@vmoney9106 the one i tried leaked determined it was the studs holding the gasket from being crushed down

[@austinniemela]

@@rustedratchetgarage6788 I don’t have studs, these grommets use bolts so I’ll see how they will work!

[@outdoorjay8012]

Do you only blast your parts before coat or do you also wet clean with a cleaner? And what type of blast media do you use?

[@austinniemela]

Blast with 100 grit aluminum oxide and blow them off and they are ready to coat as long a you don’t contaminate them

[@42Goopy42]

What is that green tape you use for masking off parts? Curious cause I'm about to start using my sandblaster.

[@austinniemela]

Link in description!

[@blaisehara8337]

Not real familiar with powder coating but it looks like you heat the parts before you apply the powder coat and then heat them again after to cure? What's the purpose of that? I thought you just heated once after the coat to cure?

[@austinniemela]

Heating before bakes out any oil or impurities in the material!

Hello, I'm from Poland I need help how to activate the front differential lock in Toyota Tacoma 2004. When it comes to that, there is a button on the cockpit of Dif Lock, but when it comes to the front-wheel drive, I have no idea how it starts

I would definitely recommend a GM single wire alternator swap makes one hell of a difference

[@smplyizzy]

I bet most people that assemble engines at home do not have your measuring tools and do not notice the lack to attention to detail from the machine shop(s).

[@SODITGarage]

Amazing attention to detail as normal!..... I am however slightly disappointed there's no added induction with this engine. With everything else you've done, I feel you need at least 250 untamed ponies rampaging their way at the rear wheels🤷‍♂️😎👍

[@MOUD27]

Today hopefully you will upload right 🙏🏽

[@REAPER3fitty]

Need a different valve cover

[@austinniemela]

Why?

[@DEATER155]

You should cerakote the engine internals it’ll improve lubrication and keep heat down

[@tradeMark182]

Go help devin with bobbi's evo paint Austin

[@lwoodt1]

The word Toyota would look good in a shade of red to match the oil cap.
