    Hi guys, been lurking for a while. Found the site when I bought my 04 double cab trd in July. Just been soaking up some knowledge about this completely new to me platform, and throwing a few mods at my truck before my big move. Seems like there are a lot of you out west and some spectacular wheeling, so I look forward to meeting/wheeling/chatting/learning from all of you!

    Here's the truck when I got it

    Then I bought line x, some wheels and tires, bumpers and a lift. More mods once I move and start wheeling it to see what I need.

    Thanks, I really enjoy it. Certainly a different beast than the modified subarus I've been dealing with for almost a decade so much more useful. Using 87 is nice too! :)

    Looks great! When do the wheels and tires go on? Interested in seeing that upgrade! Those f5's are sweet and the mtr's look nice and beefy too! Best of luck!

    They are getting mounted up now so hopefully I'll be able to run around on them for a little while but will definitely be putting the all terrains back on for the cross country drive!

    Those wheels and tires look sick, nice and aggressive! Best of luck, can't wait to see them on! Have you started a build thread yet?

    Oh and welcome to TW of course

    Definitely notice the stiffness right away, though it's still better than my last car that was on coil overs.

    Thanks for the welcomes everyone. I haven't started a build thread yet but I guess I should. It might not be great until after I move and get a working computer. Only phone and tablet atm.

    Oh and...
