TRD Pro & TX Baja OFFICIAL Thread...

No problem. If you do one of what I just described you can definitely do 285’s with those wheels. You’ll probably have to take off the mud flaps and do very very very minor trimming to the front side of the wheel well plastic. You won’t even notice it’s gone.

 

Okay, that’s what I was looking for. I appreciate the information

 

It’d be weird to drive a vehicle that actually depreciates though.

 

This just popped up on the 3rd gen fs thread

Nice!

 

I saw that too. So damn beautiful

 

Given how good jeep resale is versus how shitty jeeps actually are, I bet the bronco will be pretty strong.

 

Wrangler depreciates slightly less than Tacoma over 5 years, but that's because by then the Jeep has a new transmission, new rear end, new engine ...

jk it's impressive that the resale holds so well on the Wranglers

 

My taco has depreciated less than 10% in 5 years...

 

I don’t want to know mines worth, it’s beat up but has a lot of super baller parts that most people don’t care for haha.

 

LOL, I think of that every time I drive my wife's damn vehicle.

 

I picked up this 2012 Baja last year in south Florida with only 76k miles for $21.5k. Couldn’t believe the deal I got, not sure the dealer knew what they had. Previous owners modified it a bit so not much Baja left on it.

 

seconded...i made the mistake of going rock crawling with em. certainly wouldn't recommend it but they did a decent job considering i went p far past the capability of my at the time stock truck lol

 

That's highway robbery! even if it has a salvage title that's a killer deal.

 

Dealer picked it up for $22k at an auction. They even showed me the receipt so they sold it to me at a loss. I called the original Toyota dealer with the vin and the only issue was previous owner rebuilt front and rear diff at 73k. Dealer put stock gears back in. No rebuilt title and no issues in the 10k miles I’ve gone so far.

 

I think the only thing "Baja" specific left on my truck is is an imprint of where the T/X decals used to be on the bedsides, and the vin lol

I got lucky like you might have. Dealer I bought it from (Ford) had it listed as a TRD offroad when i went to look at it.

 

Another reason these trucks are hard to find. Dealers often get them confused with sports and off-roads.

 

So I made my Baja a little more Baja today and ditched the rear swing out bumper for a low pro Mazzulla rear bumper and trimmed the body to match. It took a ton of weight off the back it currently has 160Lbs in the bed to get back where the swing out and receiver had it sitting lol....

Are they making these again finally? such a clean looking bumper

I wanted one for quite some time since my brother is a big Mazulla fan for his pre-runner. They never had the 2nd gens in stock so i figured it was either discontinued or severely backburnered...and ended up going the overland/camping route instead lol.

 

Yes they have been in stock for awhile. They look really funky if you don't trim the body as they are super high clearance but they are really clean for a pre runner bumper... It's the 1st Mazzulla product I have ever purchased but I would not hesitate to buy anything from them again...
