The 2.7L Single Cab Thread

4C ftw

 

Now that they stopped selling mine I'm holding onto it and once I get a house get all the stock parts ha.

 

All, what a great site and community. I've learned so much about my truck from detailed builds to useful mods and DIY techniques.

I bought my Reg Cab new in 2011. 123 miles were on it (they had to bring it from a small rural dealership in South Carolina - not too many around at the time.) The Reg Cab configuration is my favorite for enjoying owning a pickup. Useful, economical, basic, capable and aesthetically great. I grew up with a Chevy LUV and Isuzu trucks. Always admired Toyota trucks but they were out of reach.

I just completed a first pass build. I'm looking forward to pushing the Icon system with the new treads. The look is restrained and decidedly old school Toyota 4x4 (with a nod to the Chevy NAPCO and Power Wagon era.)

You guys have some killer trucks. Thanks for sharing them as your stories helped inspire this build.

 

Nice truck. I may get the ARB one day

 

nice setup Trailbreaker!

what soft top is that?

 

So the bidding on my truck starts at 50,000 dollhairs

 

I'll take you sliders for free. I'll pay for shipping. Donate to a good cause.

 

Thanks Mike. The ARB really is well built. I like the history behind them too; pretty versatile as well.

 

Thank you too Fasttoyo! I'm happy to finally have the truck together.

My canvas top is the BesTop SuperTop for Tacomas. I put it on three years ago (shortly after I bought my truck.) Its held up remarkably well.

 

Right on, Kase. Thanks for taking a look. Your truck and experiences are killer. No bs about it.

 

Maineiack, thanks! Relentless (and Demello too) make some truly badass equipment.

The only remaining problem I have to solve is mounting my full size spare. I'm considering CBI Offroad's rear bumper with passenger-side offset tire mount. That would be about it for me.

 

Rest assured, Kase, at some point mine will have collected the trail trophies just like yours. Knock wood, but I do love the reliability of these trucks.

 

hey guys im new to the forum and i was wondering if anyone has put on a soft roll up bed cover.well, i know people have but on my 2014 reg cab i have the clete rails and i cant see how a bed cover would install on it without cutting the bed up.any help or pics would be sweet. thanks

 

Slap some bondo in it, and spray paint it orange.
good as new then.

 

Not sure about the roll up ones, but my dad has a tri-fold soft tonneau cover and its has 4 metal j-hook type pieces that go in the rails (2 on each side) and the cover itself has adjustable clamps the fit and basically clamp into the the metal pieces in the rails. I can try to get a better pic tomorrow, but you can kind of see it in this pic.

 

I like this trailer

 

I was afraid I would step into that realm when I went 35s. The only thing that pisses me off now is my shitty BHLM. Bitches still drool over baby T

 

I have an Extang Revolution tonneau cover on mine.

No drilling or mods required. The only downside is that I lose the ability to use the bed rails.

 

Not much has been happening here. Mostly just hanging with Ash while I still have the time. School starts back up next week so Ill be frequenting the forums a lot more again. Here's some pics of him and baby t.
