Took it to my first Meetup at Gulches State Park!

 

Its Great seeing Pics of meets with over a dozen Trucks Together.

 

Any suggestions/tips for installing four of these arm rests? I like the new black perforated ones, really the only reason I bought them.

On a side note I also bought an assortment of clips for the truck in a nice box to throw in the toolbox in case I loose one, and I will because you know subs and midbass is what's going to help reel it all in when she's in:

Looks like a couple Jeeps snuck in!

 

How do you close your bed cover with that on? I am looking for ideas to mount one and i have a similar cover.

 

That's ok if they can make it with out breaking then they are more than welcome.

 

Swapped my factory JBL rear speakers with Rockford 3-ways. Generous dynomat on the outer door panels (inside the door cavity) and also every inch of the inner panels too (shown). I plan on adding Frost King insulation and mlv over this soon. Also painted the shiny bits around my radiator so they don't show through the grille. I'll have the JBL's up for sale soon, they're an upgrade over the base level speakers and are plug/play.

 

Well when I go to the desert I remove the cover since I carry stuff in the bed so that’s not an issue for me.

 

And a ninja T4R. Technically there are 11 trucks...

 

Finally got a chance to wash it. Not bad for the middle of winter in Alaska!



Also installed an oil catch can.

 

hahahahah I'll be in that same boat next year\

 

All it needs is to be wired up which i am doing myself.. just waiting on some special order wire to come in thatll make the job easier

 

How was the difference from OEM doors vs Dynamatted doors?

 

So, i wish i had pics or vids of this, but alas it was in the moment. I'm driving my Taco around the MSA (Munitions Storage Area) in the middle of a snowstorm that had dropped around 9 inches. The roads are impossible to see, and there's no rails on the sides of the roads that will keep you out of the ditches. I've got one of the guys that works for me in the truck with me, and i'm talking shit about how i know where the roads are and we won't end up in a ditch.......30 seconds later, the right tires drop into a ditch. I've already got it in 4 high, so i just tell him to calm down and turn the wheels to the left and good ol Taco pulls us out. I said, well, that won't happen again. Sure as shit it does, with the same result. Didn't stop either time and just kept on rolling. Only a little pucker factor for me.

Here's where it gets good though. Since i was the only one dumb enough to go adventuring when you can't see the road, my tracks were the only ones in the fresh snow. Three different drivers went out there (one contractor and two mil vehicles) following my tracks in the next 5 hours. All got stuck in the ditches and had to get pulled out. The contractor actually asked me to pull him out, and i would have if i didn't have a meeting on the other side of the base at the time.

God damn i love my TACO and the Bilstein 6112's on the front 5160's on the back SPC LR Upper Control Arms, ICON three leaf add and my Cooper ST MAXX 33's. Saving my Bacon once again.

 

I have parts to do this same thing on the way. Would also like to know how it sounds?
thanks

 

Your rig has a beautiful setup man, glad it kept you moving and got you back to base

 

For me the caster is to high. I had mine at 3.4 after lift as was a bit to heavy steer for me. Dropped it to 3 and was great.

 

Hey guys. First post and first Tacoma. Picked up a 15 DCSB with 45k on the odo about 2 months ago. Lots of good info here. So far I just threw on a gator SR1 tonneau cover. Thanks to boogie for pointing out the 20% off on Amazon for the OCD organizers. Picked up the glove box and console set today.
