Over landing or long travel Baja style

what to do with a single cab 08 Tacoma. What way do you guys think is the best to go? pictures would be much appreciated

 

Long travel and keep it as light as possible!

Really depends on what you plan to use it for though

 

Are you a mallcrawler or actually going to use the truck? Your two options are rather polarized

Be honest with yourself.

 

single cab is a hard sell for over landing.

my vote would be baja

 

No mall crawling over here. I’d like to go with Baja but I’m really liking the whole overlanding long overnight trips with the old lady. But I’ve been riding dirt bikes since I was 7 so making this SOB fly through the dunes seems pretty tempting but it seems like there would be a whole lot more chopping and screwing.

 

PreRunner? Baja

4wd? Overland

 

2WD. This is going to be my first project so I’m trying to get some pointers

 

Fuckin Baja rig all the way brother

Total Chaos LT kit

 

Goals:

 

Holly cheese nips I dun creamed my pants. would you guys recommend beefing out the engine or would a engine swap be more likely?

 

Depends on what your fab skills are like.. i would personally turbo your 4cylinder if it doesnt have a ton of miles on it. With forged internals, the 2TR is a prime candidate for some boost!

 

What he said ^^
Buy a little high clearance camping trailer for your camping, tow that bitch to the dunes, unhook, and go nuts

 

Awesome, I was worried about having to do a swap. Yeah I got a buddy whose got some pretty good fab skills. Thanks for the tip
