The 2.7L Single Cab Thread

The shell is a Century cap found it on Craigslist for $120.

I plasti dipped the wheels then painted them, in theory it should still peel off

 

Finally got the taco where I want it, what y'all boys think?
(2wd manual base model)

Ready lift 2.75 in front 1.75 in rear
31" bfg a/t
American racing wheels

 

I think it needs fogs and a bunch more driving........

 

I like it. Looks like a nice clean truck.

 

Let my friend drive my truck breifly to flip a trailer around. Hot damn does it look fucking good. No wonder so many people have to turn their head when I am driving around. Towed about 1500lbs on a uhaul 5x9 utility trailer around town and the truck handled it fine with 35's and 4.88s.

 

Haha, nice man.

I'm picking up a cap next weekend. Found a color matched one!

Not sure how much I'll like how it looks but all that dry storage will be tits

 

I want a cap. Once I sell the RTT Ill be adding a cap to the list. They look dumb if your truck isn't slightly built up. Should look good with 265's and tits with 315's.

 

I'm hoping the added weight helps bring my ass end down, it's currently build waaaaaay "up" lol

 

Do it, pussy.

Just throw all the tools you can and spare parts as well. Hell I even have a 20lb sledge back there now.

 

That's the plan once I have the cap to keep stuff dry/safe.

And X2 for Kase. I think bobbed looks cool but I can really cut all that much off my truck anyways. Rear shackle hangers are pretty far back there now.

 

Nah face palm was for the YOLO.


I think bobbed tube bed would be sick. Lots of options for leafs, Chevys were just cheap

 

i would love to bob my bed but i work my truck a lot too so high clearance bumper is my only realistic option until i get a 2nd truck......ended up going back to spring shop for 9/16ths u-bolts because I just couldn't bring myself to use the 1/2 inchers so I got my overload leafs back in my wheeler's packs last night and started working out my bumpstop mounting....

 

Join the club. I have a 2013 SC Tacoma, and I had to learn to drive a stick all over again. I drove a '86 manual transmission Forerunner from new until I bought this new truck.
It's the oddest clutch I've ever almost gotten used to, but I'm working on it. Thanks for making me feel like I'm not the only one. I'm getting much better after nearly a year, but I ain't great yet. Perhaps my old age has something to do with it.

 

i catch myself riding the clutch at times LOL. getting rid of the single cab tho, going to get an access cab 4cyl auto 4x4...yeah I know its a dog but eh I really didnt want the v6 or the 5spd again

 

I agree it's a weird clutch. I've driven manuals all my life, even several Mustangs with quick release clutch quadrants,but sometimes I look like a newbie when I'm driving the Taco. I'm used to it now , but it's far from smooth.

 

vrooooooom pshhhhhhhhhhhhh haha..I want my truck to make funky noises like that too dammit

 

Dude I'm so jelly. Those things with some bolt ons and a tune can run 13s on the 1/4. Meanwhile my auto struggles to get to 80 lol

 

Anyone???

 

60000 miles is broken in for a tight 4 cylinder engine like the 2tr......i would say maybe just stick with the 5-20 and if the seal gets bad enough bite the bullet and repair it....theres no magic juice that you would ever want in your engine to fix that
