JoMo's Taco Build

[FONT=&quot]JoMo's Taco!





May 2009, I bought my ’06 Tacoma with a little over 50K miles, completely stock!

[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]First mod was to change out the deck with my old Pioneer. Ran the USB (later an AUX cable as well) through a little hole keeping everything nice a clean. Also, put in an adapter to keep all the steering wheel controls active with my iPod![/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]A year later and fresh off a deployment, threw OME front and rear shocks and an Add-a-leaf package for a simple 3” lift. Waiting for tires and wheels to still come in….[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]In the meantime, my younger brother got himself an ’06 TRD Sport.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Andres hooked it up with some horns!! [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Tires finally arrived just in time to make our trip to Vegas for our Marine Corps Ball!! BFG T/A KO 265/75R/16.[/FONT]

nice set up. looks sick as hell!

 

damn that thing sits high!! but it loooks siiiick cause its a Double Cab Long Bed FTW!!!!!!

 

Nice build.

 

Prerunner done right

I bet it rides nice

 

Love it!! Do your tires rub? I'm doing a similar build and can't decide on how big a tire I want to go with yet... Also about how much total lift do you have and whats your mpg? LOL. Really appreciate it bro!

 

Here's how much we cut out to prevent any rub, but ironically, I still get a bit in the back side of the tire...



It's 7" lift, and with the 315 tires pushes the top of my hood to almost 80 inches... My mpgs also dropped dramatically, haven't got the numbers on, but I should be able to figure that out on this weekends trip. All in all though, it's totally worth sitting high with a smooth ride!
and thanks for your compliments!

 

Nice truck...nice beagle...are you running stock UCAs? Hard to tell looking at your pics. Thanks

 

Haha Thanks!! Yeah I'm running stock UCAs. There's one picture, but you're right its not the best. But stock UCAs

 

Sweet taco. I have the same color, but an '08 Sport. Well done bro. How did you change your front dash to white and blue? I want to get rid of the ugly orange as well LOL.

 

I had a friend down here in SoCal do it. His name is Jerez and here's the link:

He's really good and does it for a decent price. All you need to do is follow the thread and order the LED's you want to change to. Order extra in case one is faulty or you change your mind about something. Here's a few pics of mine and my brothers he did.
