    Hi everyone. I already chimed in on the Northern California regional forum but figured I'd say hello here too.

    I bought my 2013 MGM DCLB TRD Sport a few weeks ago. Since then (with the help of @Tac0maSteve, @PattyP And @Mademan925) I have put on a Fat Bobs Garage 2 inch rear AAL and lifted the front 3 inches with a spacer. I also traded out the stock TRD Sport wheels and tires for 17 inch MB 352's and 265/70/17 Nitto Terra Grappler G2's.

    Only other things I've done so far is swap the antenna for the 5 inch AntennaX stubby antenna and plasti dip the badges. Here is a pic of the truck as of Friday.

    I like them a lot so far. They have an aggressive look for an AT and they handled well today for the first big rain storm of the year.

    Thanks! Yes, window tint is on the to do list for sure.

    I like to think of it as the grey storm trooper ;)

    Welcome. I'm a new member too as of an hour ago. Over the past few months I've found tons helpful threads and DIY guides on this site. Finally became an official member and I hope to be able to learn more about mods I plan on doing to my Taco as well as help others with any information I have learned myself through experience.
