    This. Maybe a little chrome wrap ;)

    But seriously, a matte black wrap would look sick. There are so many other options

    Nice

    I'd like to find a trd rear axle for my truck in a junkyard so I can have a locker. I would be more than happy to just find some 4.10s in a junkyard without one though.

    Can ya spell Tonneau
    Can be a hard find. There was one on CL all summer, but it has disappeared. (I actually posted it on TW). I'm watching the local scrap yards too so ill let you know if I see one.

    Make sure you check out ECG for a price on an ARB and regear. This way you know what your upper budget is.

    I came really close to buying the one that was on CL bc there was a set of 5.29's also on there for the elocker axle. Held off.. wish I wouldn't have now

    I have never heard of this place until i joined here. Even thought it is only 2 hours from my house, i still have no idea what it's like. I have been looking it up online lately and looks pretty awesome. Me and the wife are looking for some places for camping and light trail riding. Anybody know if this park has trails that a stock OR can handle? Im not looking for anything crazy, just something that may offer some site seeing with the other half. This is the first truck i have owned and have never been off roading, so not really looking to jump straight into diving face first in 3 feet of mud just yet.

    Uwharrie is great for this. It has trails that a stock truck will do great on, and it also has obstacles for built vehicles. I took my bone stock 1982 toyota to uwharrie right after I bought it. Main thing is study the trails and learn which trails best fit what you plan to do. As for camping, its great to, they offer camp sites, or you can simply camp on the trials (gives it a more secluded feel)

    Not the best job in the world, but it'll do. :eek:

    I'll probably redo it with plasti-dip when I get another can.

    I know, and an actual locker kit is way out of my price range.

    I don't know of too many junkyards, but LKQ doesn't have a single Tacoma.

    I hope so too, otherwise you screwed up that faceplate and the other thing.

    Not exactly, sand them down and paint it again.
    Or just go over it with plasti-dip for the flat black. Probably doing that.
