Welcome to the forums! Any mods in mind?

 

Welcome Amelia enjoy this site

 

Amelia, your truck is much newer than mine. Mine is a 96 Tacoma 5speed 4W/D with 160K. I guess I am not looking for more hp, I just want to make my existing horses live much, much longer ! Jim

 

Doing fine Amelia, ( what a nice name, I have a god child with the same) just recently bought a 06 Red 6spd Taco. Great truck. Hope your doing fine also.

 

Hey Amelia! I checked out Elko, NV... wow... you are in BFE. But it looks like there is no shortage of trails. Too bad you have the TRD Sport (don't get me wrong, NICE TRUCK). Do you take it off-road anyways?

 

We grow bigger every day. Welcome to the show.

 

hey my sports cool man come on. and about the off roading im still kinda babying her for now. but if ya ever get a chance to cruz to bfe you should defenitly check out our trails there pretty good. and why would you lift the front of your truck that much higher than the back?

 

thank you its a family name im italian. is your truck a sport or off road. i have an 06 silver trd sport.

 

Amelia, no mine is with out TRD, I do have a factory(3000lb) trailer hitch, as I really did not want the stiff suspension. I do not do any off road and the only time my truck will see a lot of non pavement is when I travel to launch ramps to unload my fishing boat.
However, I do plan on a rear sway bar, and a real good brand of shocks in the future, perhaps Bilstein .
My truck will pretty much stay stock until spring and I would like to have had the extras that the TRD package included, like larger battery, hi amp altnator, and oil coolers. By the way what is bfe?

 

Jeff, I think its code for "Where's the Beef"?

Welcome to TW Ameila.

 

don't worry amelia, i wasn't talking trash on your sport. i'm envious if anything.

anyhow, my model taco has a problem with the rear being higher than the front when it's stock. It looks better to me when it's level or higher in the front. kinda gives it more of an offroad look (which is what i'm about if you couldn't tell). If i raised the rear higher, that'd be like a rediculous drag truck. they call 'em "funny cars" for a reason! lol

 

hey you i know they come stock like that iwas just wondering why you would do that ive never seen one that much higher in the front but its a taco so no doubt its the shit. i puttin a six inch on my truck in feb. i didnt want to go that high but we get to many trucks with lift problems so 6 is the way to go with the new crossmember and all. ya know man. you dnt have much info on yourself wats up with that

 

By the way what is bfe?[/QUOTE]

butt f@#*$& egypt yeah its kinda dirty but hey thats where we are over here. yeah i dont really off road either dont want to scratch it

 

hey amelia, it's kinda odd that you've never seen that. We have trucks ALL OVER here in socaf with the front higher. Mostly Ford rangers and Silverados though. They like to call this a pre-runnered truck. It makes it look like the desert racers and more intimidating. But the "Tacoma PreRunner" is not like this, so it is confusing to some i guess. here's some examples:









Oh, by the way, a prerunner is a vehicle used for running the track before you actually race it. So, people calling their trucks prerunners simply because they have fiberglass fenders and a lift in the front is wrong unless you use vehicle (doesn't have to be a truck) to try out the track before you race your main vehicle...

 

hey edave5 ive seen it before but not as high as you said yours was. i was thinkin about doin it to mine but i was jus gonna do like 1 1/4 coil spacers. but i changed my mind 6" all the way thats what im gonna do in like feb. income tax time yeah. hey thanx for the pix
