    Hey guys just thought I'd start a build page on my second Tacoma I just bought today. It is a used 2008 Access cab and I have a very extensive list and some very cool plans for her. It will be slow but it will beee... haha.

    Yes sir. Well to be honest I want my current 2011 that is set up as more of a street queen to stay as my daily. And for this build I plan on going over the top as far as "race built" and I'd like this one to be more of a trailer sitter that I mainly use in the dirt.
    But that's me speaking now.. I am sure it wont be sitting on a trailer haha.

    Took out the 08 old coilovers that had about 120k on them with shitty springs and were sagging for my 2011's old coilovers with about 23k on them. They have coil spacers still on them tha I didn't bother to remove because this is a temporary sagging fix.

    Well most interestingly this happened. And I'm glad to say Engage is shitty. Probably why they "don't deal with people anymore they're more focused on racing". Their words :rofl: If i cant even drive in a parking lot with their shit.... good luck racing guys!
    Broken shit:



    Ignore the shit, engage still sucks :crapstorm:




    How she sat for two weeks waiting for new spindles.


    How she sits as of now (spindles fixed):

    Oh man!! I always had a feeling to steer clear of those guys.. I am running the camburg spindles and have been super happy with them, and now i'm running Dirt King uppers and lowers and equally as happy.

    BTW, that silver was my 2nd choice for color... looks great !

    Hell yeah man glad you didn't go engage. I use my truck as a "What not to buy" example haha until I can afford a DTF kit.

    Nice! I'm guessing you're working towords going full LT? What kit do you think you'll run?

    Well right now, I am neck deep in a turbo build, so mid travel is where i'll stay for now. The full LT will take up so much time and money right now that I settled for the heimed and uniballed stock length arms with king 2.5 coilovers with Baja kits SUA setup in the rear for now.

    But, of course I want the DTF kit :cool: but that also entails a full cage and most likely links too!!

    Check the link in my signature, but yeah. I'm completely building the 4 banger into a 600hp monster.

    The engine uses the same block as the 3rz, and the 3rz has been known to make 1800hp on the stock block. So i'm hopeful teehee
