    I'm not too sure about skyjacker. Sounds like quality stuff to me. I went with dakars because I know people who have them and recommended them and I had the money for it

    I'd ditch the block if you can, added stress on your current leafs. AAL at least keeps you at a full leaf pack

    Hahaha I probably have! I'm always on the lookout for Tacomas! I'm always tempted to wave at other owners when I get the opportunity but then I second guess myself because I don't know if they'll wave back or think I'm weird or something :laughing:

    Also, anyone have suggestions on which Alaska Plate style to get for my vanity plate? I want something that's dark so it'll blend into my truck more, I hate the standard orange-yellowish plates. I was thinking maybe the NRA or In God We Trust One but I'm not sure. And shoot I still need an idea of what to get lol, I know I want a vanity plate but I don't know what to put on it! :frusty:

    That's good man, I need to start doing that, I always appreciate a Tacoma whether it's stock or not. I just wonder sometimes if some of the owners of theirs even know about this site or that other people really love modded Tacomas, or if they're just kinda off doing their own thing and are clueless about the a lot the off road world and Tacoma World. I'm sure some are like that but probably not many. There was a sick black Taco I saw driving up Hiland road in Eagle River and it kinda resembled Defcon Brix's build.

    It's funny because the few times that I decide to wave at people that have lifted tacos with some nice mods I never get one back, but then again those are just mall bro truck/crawler tacomas I guess by looking at them. I'm sure if you waved at anyone from Tacoma World they'd wave back in a heartbeat

    I'd be down. I'd preferably want to go in the summer of course though. Not saying Alaska isn't beautiful in the winter because it is but I can definitely see some camping in our trucks along the way and camping the cold isn't my idea of fun lol. I really want to drive all the way to Barrow one day or maybe drive on the Dalton highway all the way to Deadhorse. I think that'd be pretty awesome.
