    Thats what I planned on doing if I lifted. Medium Dakars I dont want to go heavies cause I dont have the need for heavies. Also am not really feeling the $2k cash drop right at this moment.

    In-between torrential downpours was able to install my @Mobtown Offroad tailgate reinforcement & cap. Definitely feels a lot more solid now! 41EBE1CC-D3FB-4651-859D-DE96A4D746FD.jpg

    How did you remove the overhead liner without folding it or bending it too much?

    Love this thing. Best thing ever. Perfer the plastic cap w/ the tailgate but... just my 2 cents.
    I'm doing that now! Lol

    I am hoping adding a winch and bumper weight will help.. otherwise ill be removing them and going some other route. If i was not at the 3in mark i dont think it would be as bad.

    If you're looking for much better brakes you have to do the Tundra MC/booster swap.

    So I am very aware that this is a ToyotaTacoma forum but DAMN!

    A quick recap:
    20200613_202325.jpg

    I was hoping someone would ask me, lol...
    20200613_184313.jpg
    20200613_184322.jpg
    I installed a Rough Country 6 switch pod that came with a relay/fuse panel box. Rough Country put all of the connections on the firewall side - no beuno, I couldn't see the terminals or the screws when I attached wires and yes I did get it wrong because of that - twice, so so stupid of a design, and where did Rough Country put the labeling for the terminals? Where the wiring covers up the labels of course... my phone is slimmer than my head:
    20200613_184023.jpg
    And another thing, the Jeep has to be running to use any of it, because Rough Country built to where it needs 13+ volts just to turn on, so when there's a problem the tech needs to sit in the engine bay with the engine running just to diagnose the problem, God I hate engineers!!!

    It is!

    No worries!
    .

    So my TACOMA has BFG 37/12.50R17's and this shop had some Toyo 37/12.50R17's right next to where I parked, so I compared the ancient KO 37's to the new Toyo 37's:
    20200613_094308.jpg
    The opposite sides of the tires were even btw. That must be why people think mine has 35's, because they actually do look like 35's. Lmao!

    Lastly, when is a company going to make fenderwell inserts for the Tacoma? Because:
    20200613_201159.jpg
    I really dig this look!

    This is number 5 accident. Not sure WTH is going on. The accident totaled 3 out of 4 involved and I almost got completely out of the way, but got clipped on the right rear corner. Wrinkled my fender and busted the tail light. Anybody got any tail lights?

    Today I unbolted my left rear fender flare and threw it in the the bed after my Cooper STT pros tore it off the rivets on the trail...then I used a knife to cut part of my right front wheel well liner also because my tires ripped it loose too...but I didn’t get stuck anywhere and the other day I did something a bit cooler. Hopefully soon I can share about trimming my fenders so that I don’t have to cut my shit up on the trail.
