    I have a 2012 Taco 4dr long bed, I am slowly starting my first build. I have a good advisor- I put on a body armor rear bumper so far, and am working on some other parts. I am trying to decide on a lift- I am a beginner by a long shot.

    I am looking for suggestion on lift, front bumper and custom campers.

    First off welcome! And grats on modding your rear armor. Depends on what yoy want to do with your truck for suspension. Are you planning on overlanding with lots of gear and weight or just weekend warrior at some off road parks with bigger rocks requiring a long travel kit.

    Throw some pics of if you got them, we all like seeing them.

    ^Why even bother keeping the stock bed at all? Just mount the whole thing on the frame, and have cutouts for the wheelwells and fuel filler.
