    Finally got around to putting in the oversized fuel pump for the supercharger. Thanks to SGT Taco for lending me the use of his garage joists and help.

    Man Moab was a blast. You guys gotta try to make it next year. Got a list of things to change and stuff to tweak but it will be set for next year. Oh yeah also blew up some stuff.

    Anyone have a good Toyota engine source? Mine is not ideal and I am wanting to get is rebuilt or swapped and I am weighing my options. Been to a few places to get price quotes on rebuilds and it's been around $2500. But none of these places are Toyota specific type places so I am open to more options.

    Also looking for maybe a good place to get a used engine with 100K or less miles maybe. If I can find a good used one I may be into that as well... I called a few of the supliers I found in a quick google search but didn't find anything I liked...

    Looking for a couple OEM 2nd Gen Tacoma CVs for my long travel build. I'm down in Alamogordo, willing to pay shipping or make the drive to pick up a couple. Also looking for some OEM spindles if anyone has any laying around. Thanks, I'm also available via call or text at 7063397695

    MojaveMadMan welded up a gas can mount for me. He may think otherwise but, it turned out awesome IMO.

    Plenty of clearance for the A.R.E tonneau cover.

    completely. Just have to unscrew the spare tire spindle and everything comes out. Need to get it painted or powdercoated. Glad it hasn't been rained on yet. ;)

    Another option would to bed line it to keep the durability rather than having to repaint it every so often or scratching the powder coat. but thats just my opinion.
