    That's a weird looking Tacoma bed. :p

    Mine isn't too bad.

    Rebuild spare CV's
    Gears/Front locker
    Build jerry can holder and get 2 jerry cans, one water and one gas. Make water one into pressurized shower setup.
    Replace OTRE's, PS rack and PS pump

    Those are my required's.

    Optional's are rear lift, fix my AC and wheels so I don't rub my frame at full lock anymore. But they are lower on my list and not necessary.

    Two years at this point, but yeah. It was a rack doctor rack and I don't plan on using them again. Going to buy a brand new OEM rack and pump. Not fucking around with remans anymore if I can help it.
