Steinkek's - 4 door 1st gen build

Hey all! Sold my 13' Tacoma about a year ago when I changed careers to get out of the high payment. Could not stand not having a truck soooooooo I got a 01' which is obviously much cheaper.



It was completely stock 01' Limited TRD. I cant leave anything stock so of course I started to mess with it.

Most recent picture 1/18/16




The day I bought it. Had some of the ugliest wheels I have seen and bald tires so with the winter weather that was not going to work...



Found a set of steelies for cheap with winter tires on Craigslist. Painted them black and they would do for now.



I dislike chrome so the mirrors and rear bumper got painted.



Tried to get the window trim looking better since they had all started to peel away.



Made up a Satoshi/Raptor grill.



The suspension was gone, leaf springs were concaved, so it was time to get that refreshed also. Went with the OME 3inch kit with Bilsteins on the 4 corners. At the same time put on wheels and tires.

It drives like a new truck!

Before:

After:


Then wheels and tires







List of things to do in the future:
Sliders
Maybe armor on the front and back...maybe
Always maintenance, this needs to run forever!

 

Looks great buddy. I got a group buy on retros goin on

 

What rims are those?

 

Konig Countersteer type X in the 16x8 et-20

Thanks man! I will be contacting you as soon as my truck fund recovers from the lift/wheels/tires

 

Alright buddy sounds good

 

Great build!

Love the rims....Where did you get that 16x8 style? Is that Anthracite color?

I looked at the link, i dont see that wide flat spokes...

 

Thanks man. If you look at one of the last pages he has them listed or just PM him.

 

Looking good man! Digging the 16" Konig's. I'm considering a set for my dad's truck...would you happen to have any straight shots from the front and rear that show how much they stick out?

His truck (my previous Tacoma) is back on stock suspension but we kept the sliders on there, so I want a somewhat aggressive wheel/tire combo to match.

 

Hey thanks! I can try and take some pictures tomorrow if I remember. They stick out just a touch, not crazy aggressive.

 

looks good! Whats the next mod gonna be?

 

Here are a few more photos.

Next probably side steps and headlight retrofit.

 

Thanks!

 

What lift did you use? Stance is killer!

 

Thanks man! OME 3inch kit with Bilsteins

 

Did you get the top spacer to get the whole three inches? I was thinking about going with ToyTech but after a little more research I'm rethinking that. That extra half inch or so could make all the difference! Lol

 

Not the full 3 inch. I didn't do the top spacer. So it is more like 2.5 up front

 

Finally found a good deal on a canopy!!!!

 

Subd. 1st gen ftw. Looking really good with the lift and tires.

 

What size tire did you go?
