    I tried doing a search. Does anyone have a list of spare fuses they carry for the 2nd gen Offroad Taco incase of emergencies? I've got a couple standard packs but alot of the fuses on the truck look like you'd have to go through the dealer to get (and might be a bit expensive.) What spare fuses would you recommend carrying incase of a problem out wheeling? My 07 has vsc,trac,dac,hac,alsd,etc,etc.

    Just go to an auto parts store or WalMart or anyplace that has an automotive dept. and get a box of mixed amp fuses... Look in the two fuse box places on your truck to see what size to get... There are fuses under the hood and behind the little storage pop out compartment to the left and lower from the steering wheel.

    You don't need to go to the dealer for any of the fuses on your truck. Just pop open the fuse box, make a note of the fuses you have and get a set of replacements at any auto parts store. If you're really stranded, you can swap fuses around to run more critical items and, worst case scenerio, jump across the fuse (I'm not recommending anyone do this, just simply stating it as an option if you're sure it's only a fuse problem, you're stranded and it's a last resort) :)

    The fuses I'm most concerned with are the larger one's (approximately 3/4" x 3/4" square.) They're 30,50,100,& 140 amp. Anyone carry spares of them or ever had to replace one?

    I need the 7.5amp mini fuses. They seem hard to come by. Walmart does not carry them. I have not checked Pep Boys or Advance. I want the mini fuses to replace the ones I used.
