New girl in the Tacoma World! :D

yeah quite a few places to off road. wind rock is probably the most well known place. I live like 30min a way from it, but i won’t take a stock truck there. i’ll break something, and maybe out of my DD.

 

hello welcome to the taco world!

 

I've gone from 87 to 91 octane on my last 4 fill ups and noticed an increase in mpg. Who knows maybe its the break in period but I'm liking the new numbers!

Bought some BAMF sliders, waiting for them to be built. Got Weathertech floor mats- they are bullet proof and a MUST HAVE. Spilled an entire cup of coffee on the, and none hit the carpet. Blacked out all my emblems with plastidip. The stuff is easy to use and looks awesome! Next will be to plastidip the wheels and get a tint on the windows. Also, ditch those stock rugged trails. They suck! Lookin forward to your build page!

 

How many coats and type of paint did u use and has it lasted/faded.

 

3 coats of Rustoleum High Heat (no need for the high heat I just like the color and I had some at my house) and been on for a year with no problems

 

It's called plasti-dip. There are many colors. It's a rubber texture in a spray can.

 

sounds like you've done a bit of homework hahah what made you want to get a Taco?

 

I have been told to do a 3 but I feel it's going to be a little too small I'm my opinion. I think a 6 is too big for me. I'm not sure though I am trying to look up pics of 3 in lifts with 33s

 

3 with some trimming will work for 33s

 

Since you are 2wd you can always do a 4" spindle lift

 

I sure have lol. Been researching for years now getting a concept of how I want to do it. I've always loved the body and the quality of them. They're great trucks all the way around. And in my opinion the best looking !

 

Welcome to TW!!!

 

Ya many of my friends and people at shops have recommended that me! Any thoughts on the cst 4in? Looks like I might go with that. Great on price as well

 

I believe a lot on here use the maxtrac plus you maintain the factory ride and later on if you want you can always add 5100's or add ome coils to get a lil more height when you get tired of that

 

check out these maxtrac's lots of pics for your enjoyment. Little more cost effective as well.

spindles are horrible. Don't get them. You can do a lot better for a lift.

 

Nice! It's black right? My cousin did plasti dip and he said he doesn't recommend it because he said eventually it fades.

 

The only thing I don't like about them is they push your front wheels out a lil more but you do keep your tierod angles like stock and maintain that stock ride. Every lift has its pros and cons.

 

Thanks nice truck! Where'd u get the fog lights?

 

Congrats to answer the first question If I had a 2wd I would stick with a 3 inch. A lot of the guys that do a 4 inch spindle lift can sometimes look goofy, especially if the tire is to small. What is your list of things you want to do to the truck?
