The SR thread, let's see them!

That's not even the best part...

 

Roof rack? Who makes it if you don't mind me asking?

 

What's the specs on the lift you are running?

 

3rd gen Access cab roof rack? Details please

 

Hey guys, it's a Yakima rack with the fairing. Next week my snugtop rebel comes in and I'm attaching a prinsu toprac. Hopefully it jives well with the Yakima up front.

 

It's 1.5 front and back.

 

Looks perfect

 

Someone with an SR want to weigh in on my question, posed a few days ago in the Billie thread with no response?

Gen 2 5100s at .85, Gen 3 5100s at .65 or 1.1? What's the best option to avoid the dreaded "dog wiping it's ass in the yard" stance, say with 100 lb in the bed? No rear lift.

 

Nice truck Boomking. How did you do the foglights?

 

What running boards do you have on these? Can't tell from the snow. Or are they sliders?

 

Thanks! I went with this complete kit from Amazon. Installed myself and have it on since Nov. No complaints on quality and price. It comes with complete kit, just add a fuse tap so it turns on with ignition and a switch since I have the clutch start button.

@MeefZah I am by no means a mechanic but I did manage to install the lift myself. The struts I installed with stock springs is a toytec/eubach which from my research is similar to bilstein 5100 (don't know Gen). I set my spring to 1.4 inch before lifting back and there was no rake present. Personally, I'd try .85. And if it doesn't work then have a spring compressor ready and go for a smaller size or add a small lift in back.

@5ubtle I bought a used running board from a second gen Tacoma for 80 dollars. It came out of a double cab. Front and middle attach points worked fine but the back attach point did not. So I attached to frame and then drilled and screwed to running board. Have gotten lots of compliments on it in person, looks clean and saved a ton of money!

 

Interesting, if you have any other pics of them I'd like to see them!

 

@5ubtle similar to this running board. Wanted to keep the stock look and wanted it longer so when I add canopy and rear prinsu rack, I will help with loading and unloading gear.

@boynoyce and @Usdmmark

@boomking and @moe2o4 have the cleanest SRs. Some of the cleanest 3rd gens period as well

 

Thanks Dave!

 

@Biblite thanks! I like @moe2o4 tacoma a lot and much of my build was inspiration from his.

 

Where did you get those fender flairs?

 

Decals by @CBoy808 and Tint

 

I'm curious about that too
