    Hey, I’m William but I go by Billy. This is my first Taco so I decided to go pretty big with it. My background is in cars mostly. Before my truck I owned a 2013 Audi S4 and a 1990 GTR R32. Looking to get helpful insight and some ideas for my build.

    Thanks for having me.

    I decided to sell it when one of the hd ballasts went bad and to replace with OEM was $400. Said nope, traded it in for the quicksand.

    Welcome!

    What do you plan to do with the truck driving wise? That way we can suggest some ideas for your build based on what you will be using your truck for.

    Thanks for the reply. My plan is for a mix of off-road (rock, mud, sand) and overall performance. Maybe looking for a little bit more torque and HP. It’s bone stock at the moment with some method 305NVs on Cooper Discoverer AT3s 285/70/17s. I recently bought a FOX Level 3 Kit w/ OME Dakar Leaf which I’ll be installing next week. I know it might be overkill but I couldn’t resist and had a decent amount of post deployment money.
