    Well after almost a year of owning the truck and getting shit from NC10TRDSPORT, I guess its time for a build thread.

    The goal of this truck is an Expedition type (might be going with LT now :spy:) build with a bunch of other shit thrown in for shits and giggles.

    Here is how it looks today
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    I started my Tacoma obsession with a 2009 BSP AC TRD Sport
    [​IMG]

    Then I made the (at the time) regrettable decision of selling it and buying a 2007 Mustang GT.. As much as I liked that it still wasnt exactly what I wanted and I went through a 2008 F250 diesel and a 2012 Ford Focus before finally coming to my senses and buying the truck that I had always wanted anyways.

    So it started out as a 2012 SW DCSB TRD Sport(dont let OZ tell you different, DCSB is the way to go :D). It was purchased June 24, 2012 with 90 miles on the clock.
    I dont have a stock picture of it but you can google a 2012 SW DCSB if you really wanna see what it looks like.

    I took delivery of the truck and drove it around stock for about 3 days until I had to mod it. At this point I thought I'd be a total badass and buy a bullbar and a tonneau cover.
    [​IMG]
    Man I was so awesome with my awesome bullbar.

    After driving around like this for a couple months I decided to man up and throw my lights in the oven and do the BHLM.
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    At this time my awesome girlfriend bought me a mag light and some wall mounts so I drilled into my seat to mount it.
    [​IMG]

    I then decided it was time for some new rims and tires because stock sucks. So I bought some Pro Comp 7033s and some 265/70/17 treadwright Guard Dogs.
    [​IMG]

    The rims are nice but I wont be buying recaps again and going with 265s was a mistake. Not that the extra half an inch really means much but I'd still prefer 285s

    After running like this for maybe 2 months and then running into an awesome Fabricator named Tyler Pelfrey I realized how stupid bullbars are so I sold it for cheap and told him to start making me a bumper.

    In the mean time while I waited for Tyler to finish the bumper I ended up buying a few other miscelaneous parts. I never really got to wheel my truck much so here is a random picture off road.
    [​IMG]

    This is what she looked like after removing the bullbar
    [​IMG]

    I ran around like this for a few months while I was still at school.

    At this point I decided I really didnt like having any money so I bought my Fox mid travel setup from member Yamaha73 for a great deal. I also hit up Jandrews and bought his old Icon springs. Wheelers helped me out with the rear AAL so I was all set just needed to install.

    I pulled a PSUtaco85 and let my parts sit and collect dust for about 2-3 months until I could get home from school.

    This is when all the fun started. First I'd like to give a huge thank you to TacticalBacon13 for helping me install my suspension and front bumper.

    So here it goes
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    So thats all for right now. Future plans include new tires, leaf pack, bed rack or cap, RTT, snorkel, some more lights, and whatever else I can think to spend my lifes savings on :cool:

    Haha you've done more to your truck than I have, and my build thread is 30 pages long! Build threads are the best places for ideas.
