    Nothing, if I remember correctly...I had to take it into the stealership for the steering wheel shake TSB and rear leaf TSB so I just asked them to reverse the tires while they were doing it.

    There is a wart on the lip of your poor Tacoma... unsightly at best.

    Get a plate bumper? (don't listen to me, I'm biased/opinionated).

    Are you talking about my lightbar? A plate bumper is too heavy for no lift and I already have a rake. To each his own, I like it myself.

    Well, I have been talking to my dad about it, and he won't really loan me any money until I earn some more, since new tires and the lift (and labor) will be around $1800. My truck only has 3000 miles on it, so getting new tires and everything is not very economical right now.

    I believe I just said it sagged a lot when carrying a load. Once a dealership hears that or that it squeaks, or has a very harsh ride in the back, they are inclined to fix it.

    Well, my brother has a TX Pro, and he had it for about 6-8 months before me, then another kid crashed into my Toyota Highlander and totaled it so my parents were (graciously) going to get me a Tacoma in the next 6 months regardless. But I did like the black wheels and some of the other stuff that came with it. Honestly, though, I didn't have any intention of modding in the beginning. Then...I came upon TacomaWorld, and you know the story from there. :eek:

    is that just the Bilstein's at 1.75 and the stock tires and rims? I have a tx pro regular cab that I am debating whether to put a 3" lift in or just start out with the Bilstein's and maybe a AAL in the back. Eventually I want to put wider rims on it but I am going to stick with what I have until my tires are shot. Are you happy with how the truck sits compared to how it was stock?

    No, I don't have the Bilstein's installed yet, my suspension is completely stock (with the exception of the rear leaf TSB). I hope to install Bilstein's at 1.75 soon but haven't done it yet. But I really don't like the stock rake, especially with the rear leaf TSB. (don't know if you've had this done)

    I like that toolbox. Slim design and doesn't look like it takes up the whole bed.

    Yeah, that's exactly why I got this particular one. The short bed is not very forgiving once you start taking up space so I needed a slim box. Only $150 for the toolbox itself, and it ended up being $200 total with the mounting system and two little LED lights meant for truck toolboxes to go under the lid.
