SocalKTK's 3rd gen DCLBOR Super White Build page!

How much was the kit and where did you buy it?

 

Did you only lift the front of your truck? Plans for rear?

 

I worked a deal with Bajakits since they needed a 3rd gen tacoma to test their upper control arms. Best way to get the best price is call them up 949-566-8615 or email at sales@bajakits.com

 

I also got Tacoma 05+ (6 lug) Rear 2.5 Remote Reservoir Shocks. I'll have more pics shortly once I pick up my truck later today during lunch. Now im definitely going to have to buy bigger tires for the the stock rims lol.

 

One of the photos from the photo shoot they did. I'll have some better photos tomorrow!



Sitting on 17 NV Methods and Falken AT tires

 

Here are some more snaps of the suspension and the truck overall lift.

 

Added some Cali Raised ditch lights. Super easy to install, straight bolt on!

 

My @Mobtown Offroad sliders should be coming in tomorrow!! The last piece to the puzzle. Now my whole bottom is protected

 

Haha, my immaturity is showing.

 

Sliders are here! Off to the powder coater to be degreased, sandblasted, and powder coated!

 

great build so far!

 

Sorry for the rust, that is extremely uncommon for us. The sliders were perfect when I loaded them in the truck and of course as I travel to the trucking company the skies opened up.

 

It's okay man! Shit happens, I'm just glad the powdercoater isn't Charging extra to clean that shit! Haha

 

Questions about the baja kits UACs.

1. Did they have to cut out the long bolts?

2. If so, did the kit come with new bolts

3. Also, were the bolts inserted from the rear instead of the front of the UACs?

 

Hey,

Sorry I can't help answer your question, but if you send jt@bajakits.com or jordan@bajakits.com, they will be glad to help answer any questions from the install. I didn't see any of the install sadly, I only had time to drop the truck off.

 

Courtesy of Yokohama, I got hooked up with their brand new Geolanders G015 tire 285/70/16r! Going to try to get them on the stockers this weekend to see how they look, and another photo shoot!

I also just got my sliders back from the powdercoater, installing this weekend as well!

 

Sliders came out purdy. Did you have all the hardware powder coated too?

Good luck with the install. The bolts that go into the boxed portion of the frame that you use the long handle plate welded nuts are a serious pain in the ass. It would be next to impossible without that long handle to position the nut properly. I still had trouble myself and had to get my GF's help as she has tiny hands/arms compared to mine.

 

Going to try and get them on soon. I did put them under the truck to fit them but didn't have time to actually put them on. Hopefully sooner than later!

 

How the truck currently sits! Love how the 285s look. Gas mileage took a hit, getting about 2 less per gallon.

 

Yeah, there is never enough time in a day. Lift and tires look awesome, those sliders are really going to complete the look of your truck.

if you didn't know already Mobtown has install instructions on their website.

The install is pretty self explanatory but it's worth checking out if you haven't seen them already.

The only reason I mention it is because I didn't know they had instructions on their website until after I installed mine. I was able to figure it out but it would have made sorting out some of the hardware a little easier.
