    0502141902_zps356656de_f14272eebe30938b8c475d02f239e83bcd003e2c.jpg well i have another baby on the way so i finally got a double cab after many many years of wanting one woooot!! i got the truck around christmas time 2013. i traded the red and black tacoma that is pictured in my other build thread http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/1st-gen-builds/201947-back-under-knife.html
    the double cab was totaled, had a bent frame in the front, all the front sheet metal was toast i have replaced everything from the firewall forward including the inner fenderwell and support structure and fixed the chassis. while i was at it i put in manual hubs and front diff in it as well, still not 4wd yet will get to those questions soon though :D as of now i put the toytec 2.5" billet spacer up front and toytec aal in the rear and tires are 33x12.50
    also i built the bumpers just finished welding and painting the front bumper yesterday. thats about all ive done to it so far.

    Yeah definitely post some pics, idk if I'll get fiberworx glassworks , I really dig glassworks 3.5 since they aren't that big but I've heard they can be a pain to deal with sometimes

    Yeah I really like the 3.5's from glassworks that's the ones I was going to get but I did alot of searching on here and it seems they are behind right now and may take awhile to get what I needed. Fiberworx believes they can have my bedside and fenders shipped out within two weeks though. I would like to try to put 35's on it once the fiberglass is on but not sure if they will fit without cutting the new glass

Still have to lift the rear 3" haven't had time because of work an all. Also put 18" xd badlands with 35x12.50 mud grapplers, needs two new font tires but. If I can get back to my truck in time ill get a pic of it before dark
