    :D It's a 2002 Extended Cab Manual 2.7 liter. I would have loved the v6 but this one has 73,000 miles and it's in great condition.

    I'll be switching a lot of stuff from my double cab (trailer hitch, wheels, etc) so I won't be selling the double cab for a week or so.

    Smart move! And welcome to the 4x4 family!

    2.7's are respectable...that was what the last Taco I drove had and it never disappointed!

    Good to know. I was worried but I think I'll love the good gas mileage and manual transmission. Should I throw on my Bilsteins and OME coils? :confused:

    881's might be a little too much for the 2.7. i know that they are stiff on mine (xtra cab/ v6) and with the lighter/smaller engine you're going to see more lift and a harsher ride. maybe pair the bilsteins with the stock coils? how many miles are on your shocks/coils?

    That's a good point. I'm sure the new truck's suspension hasn't been replaced...Like I said, it's got 73k.
    My Bilsteins have about 12k on them. They are doing alright..But the 881s are still a little stiff on my Double Cab v6...

    Are you a student? Where do you normally park? I haven't seen you around town. I am the big Indigo Ink taco with California plates on it and a bid red CB antenna that swings all over the place. Where is Mclay flat road? I haven't heard of it. We should meet up and do some wheelin sometime if you are local. PM sent as well.

    We need a big garage!

    I'll have fender flares to install and maybe possibly a light bar soon (still on the fence on that one)

    I saw the pics of ur fenders they look sweet just need them painted. What were you thinking on the lightbar? I finished building mine the other day(listening colton?) and as it was sitting in my garage waiting to be painted my dad somehow bent it, his fat ass stood on it somehow, and he threw it out...
    So got new brackets built time to get new metal..again.

    thanks. The new flares are HUGE! But I think I'm gong to like them. I'm going to get out tomorrow and get some quotes on the paint for them. I want to get them on the truck!

    Another TW'er PM'd me and said that he got an 01-04 N-Fab bar for his 98 Taco. Once he gets it installed I'm going to see what (if any) adjustments he needed to make to it. If its none or something minor then I might get one for myself.

    Sweet! I love them! I like them in the black but I'm sure they'll look good in the white too.

    Me too...plus the black plastic stuff is such a pain to clean!!! And the flares are fiberglass, they do recommend painting them and not leaving them as is.

    Anyone know where I can get some rock sliders around Missoula? Or have them made? Either way, doesn't matter to me.
