    How it sits 7/3/15:
    2013 Tacoma TRD Off-Road 4x4. I bought the truck in May of 2014 with 10,000 miles. I was glad I found a double cab 6 speed manual. I've slowly been putting on little mods and what not on. I got it stock so the first thing I did was wheels and tires.

    Suspension:

    OME 885x Coils
    Bilstein 5100s all around (front set at .85)
    1" Block

    Wheels and Tires:
    Fuel Boost 16x8
    265/75/16 Comforser Cf3000

    Exterior:
    Plasti dipped badges
    Debadged tailgate
    TG Rocksliders
    24" 120w Light Bar

    Performance:
    Flowmaster 40 series

    Interior:
    LED Interior Lights
    Blitzpro LED light switch

    Future Mods:
    285/75/16 Cooper Discoverer STT
    Mesh Grille
    UCAs
    Front Bumper
    Icon Suspension
    Seat covers
    Husky Liners
    Window tint
    Sound System
    K&N Cold Air







    Finally got the tires on. Definitely noisier but not too loud
    Next was getting a lift on. I wanted a 2-3" lift but didn't want to have it ride stiff. The OME 885s rode as smooth as stock.
    Before lift was installed

    After. This was before I put in the 1" block so it had a little lean
    5/25/15 I ordered a cheap light bar off Amazon. For the price I paid it was a lot better than I thought.


    I decided to order a Blitzpro LED Light switch instead of just a taco switch. Put it in next to the USB port.

    6/25/15 I ordered some TG Rock sliders. I went through 4 wheel parts to get free shipping since the shipping would of been around $90

    I used brake cleaner to get off the oil and then used gray primer. For now they are Satin black but I plan to have them powder coated.

    6/27/15 I decided to raise the front to .85 setting on the bilstein. It now sits level




    That's it for now. As I put on new things I will update the thread. Let me know what you think and show me some mods you have done to your 2nd Gen

    A few months ago I bought some new BFG KO 2s. I decided to go up a size to 285/75/16, luckily I didn't have to do any trimming and only rub when in reverse sometimes

    I'm not sure if anyone else has had a similar issue with their Bilstein 5100s but my rear shock broke the other day. I wasn't off roading when this happened so I don't know what caused this to happen. Let me know if any of you have seen this
