    This guy does this for and as a business. Good looking Tacoma's and look forward to more pics of your guys' work.
    I run a company and often have folks come up to me telling me about their positive experiences and satisfaction.
    I may be the "face of the company" but I never miss an opportunity to make sure those folks understand that it is the hard work and dedication to the company from my employees that make this happen.
    Original comment is suggesting that this manager does not give proper credit when its due?? Assumptions

    THANK YOU! I did make sure the tech that went above and beyond custom fabricating all of the brackets was taken care of and publicly recognized. He's a good guy and cares about the work we do. I'm sure he likes building these trucks more than changing oil in a Camry. Glad to hear that you care about your team as well, can't do anything without them.

    Dude he's not talking about you. He's talking about Lawfarin and his comment about OP taking all the credit for the build, blah blah blah. See below.

    My total charge from service and parts for everything including labor freight and shipping $13,330.19
    Plus the truck.

    All stock parts are offered back to the end purchaser, truck is completely done now and displayed in the showroom. I think I might still tint the front two windows to match and make a custom TRD graphic for the bedside.

    Would love to keep going, I think it could use a roof rack, a lightweight front bumper with a winch, rear bumper, tire carrier etc. I need to stop though, already enough money spent. Will most likely throw in a high lift jack though.

    Here's a shot as it sits now, cleaned up, debadged. I ordered some heavy velcro so the tent cover can stay attached and rolled up under the floor and I have to modify the metal arm for the window behind the cab of the truck. There is one attachment point that is blocked since I went with the lower height rack. I'm sure we will figure it out.

    Got the front tent window to work, looks and functions way better. Could still use some adjusting but it's open. Thanks again for all of the feedback!

    @like2detail, your a salesman with good taste. You should come consult for the dealers down here, who think spacers and drop brackets are the only way to lift.

    Tool box?

    Look at your avatar. I bet your the kinda guy who would buy a built truck and say you're the one who did all the work...



    Although the OP did mention he had a tech that does the work I guess I get a little offended see "I" in a lot of his posts. Not once did I see "we". I've done a lot of work over the years that other people take credit and compliments for, so perhaps I'm a bit edgy and for that I apologize. If you guys were in my end of it, you'd better understand.

    How do you like those tires? They look amazing. Thinking of grabbing those but worried about weight and regear stuff.
