    I just brought this home yesterday on a roadkillesque road trip. Flew down to NJ from Maine, hopped in it and dove it 9 hours home with a couple stops to pick up parts and things from other Tacoma world members. Can't wait to get started on my mods to it!

    These are all mods the PO did, I haven't gotten to do any yet due to work.
    5 inch lowering blocks
    4x4 leaf pack
    DJM frame notch
    DJM front 3 inch drop arms
    FEAL coilovers in front
    18x10.5 -12mm wheels (can't remember brand)
    275/60r18 tires
    21 inch led bar behind bumper
    Led driving lights in place of fogs. One fell out at some point, the other doesn't work so these will be redone
    URD sprint booster
    Tint all around (unsure what percent)
    LED headlight bulbs
    Aftermarket LED tail lights
    Custom 2.5 inch (I think) exhaust with twin blast tip out the back
    Aftermarket alarm/immobilizer which I'll be trying to have removed.
    Shorter kyb shocks in rear
    Relocated lower rear shock mount
    New frame in '18
    Color matched front grill

    I think that's everything currently, if I missed anything I'll update this.

    The planned list is as follows in no particular order
    Black headlight housing
    4-link the rear
    URD short shifter
    Built 2.7 with LCE parts + turbo for 500hp
    Haltech 2500 ECU
    Bench seat to bucket swap
    Line lock
    R-154 billet shift forks
    Thicker front sway bar
    Apple car play head unit
    Rolled/wider fenders in rear since tires currently rub on turns

    I've got a couple the PO sent me when I was thinking about going to get it. C25C40FB-D377-4C03-83B1-4B5B732C8F5D.jpgED097028-FEDC-487D-9986-EA0F304C0BD3.jpg5B75FEBD-E976-40B8-B591-C87D02D822DD.jpg

    Edit: if I'm not mistaken, I think he said that first pic was with 295/40R18? He said he didn't have clearance issues with them.

    Looks like a DJM 3/4.

    This with a turbo kit on that 2TR, would be such a fun truck!

    So it started out with the DJM 3/4 like @Torspd guessed. That was before the bigger lowering block and 4x4 leaf pack. Now it sits at about 5-6 in the rear and I believe 4-5 in the front.

    With no load in the truck, and parked on an incline/angle, this is the fitment on this side. Other side barely passed the shoe test. 4DCE800E-485E-49B0-A663-AEFB8CC04F1A.jpg

    I'm not one to hate on people's builds, but I'm seriously confused by the taco in the distance.
