    Hey Tidewater Tacomas. I bought my 2014 tacoma trd sport prerunner new and have slowly been adding a few things. Added towing mirrors, oem roof rack, leer shell, rear mirror relocation, tailgate edge reinforcement, air bags, scan gauge and a few other small things. Been looking at adding a small lift with bilenstein 5100 all around. What shops do you guys recommend to do the work?

    Garage/driveway. Save the money and get lifetime alignment at Firestone. Lift on these trucks is stupid easy

    Intake, exhaust, lift. Typical stuff.
    If anyone is interested for a get together, Ill be continuing my timing belt next weekend and could use a hand or two. Enough space for two trucks to do lifts in the driveway and corner lot so plenty of parking.

    I'd buy pizza and beer for everyone but I'm currently unemployed so pinching pennies. I'd still pitch in $20-30 though.

    Ah, I wish I could help but have plans with the family. It'd be nice to learn since I have to do mine in the next year. Still have those icons for sale? :spy:

    I still have them. Never got around to posting them though; just chilling I'm my garage. Too busy getting resume's out and whoring myself to men in suits. Got a big interview Monday so hopefully I'll be employed by the weekend.

    I got the leer shell from Leonards in Vabeach. Experience was ok. They didn't fit the shell right the first time and had to go back for new rubber seal and they had to mod the shell more to clear the tailgate. I'm really happy with the shell. Definitely glad I got it. With the options ( removable front window, sliding rear window and carpet) price was around $1800.

    What length is that kayak, I was thinking of getting a Yakima rack for the truck bed, but it seems to fit fine with the stock roof rack.

    For sure! She has never been down here, I have 10+ times.

    I did make these this morning for a TW member. Brush bars from his ARB bumper to his chassis. This summer we are going to modify them and weld them to sliders that I will make for him.
