    Your truck is slick. Love the bumper. Could be the lighting but...driver side tire? Wearing uneven outside-in? Camber issue?

    Didn't really do anything to the taco other than drive it today. But I did order myself a GoPro Hero2 today. I borrowed my buddies original Hero for a week long fishing trip and ended up screwing it up (long story, don't want to explain) so I ordered him a new one and picked one up for myself as well :D

    Grill looks good! What paint did you use? I used Duplicolor perfect match on my truck. It actually matches pretty damn good!

    I'm wanting 33's but need to pick out some wheels first. Tired of black Soft 8's :( If I go 16's, I either want MB 72's in polished or Mickey Thompson Classic II polished and 285/75/16 MT/R's. If I stay with 15" wheels, 33x12.5R15 MT/R's :D

    I drove my Tacoma to the Toyota Dealership today to get parts for what looks to be a time-consuming valve cover gasket replacement. That air-intake is kind of a pain in the ass, huh? Now I just need a whole day to commit to the project.

    First time allow some time and take pics. I did mine and it still leaks. But took me about 3 hours to do. Home much did the gasket cost from the dealer?

    haha that's funny dude! i can't remember if i posted pics.. if i did it would be on TTORA. if not then PM me and i'll try to upload some.


    eh thanks but not a fan of the relocation. i have a few ideas of something else i want to do but for now these work and are removable.


    a little of both. i'm waiting on 37 pro comp mt's to come in, but my km2's are pretty gone. i drove for a while on a bad ball joint and never had them aligned afterwards since i knew it was almost time for new tires anyways

    The gaskets were $20 each, but while I'm in there I'm going to replace the plug grommets, air intake gaskets and the plugs. All in all, $150 in parts. The dealership quoted me $560 to replaced just the valve cover gaskets. I'll just go slow and make sure I don't mess it up.
