    The truck has changed a little since I first got it. Just wondering what everyone thinks of the changes. IMG_3686.jpgCB0FD028-7D1B-4D62-BAE7-FC38F2D0FF43.jpg IMG_6184.jpgThings I've added to it:
    N-Fab front bumper and side steps
    Leveled the truck
    17x9 American raceline wheels
    Toyo at2 285 70's
    Toolbox
    Homemade chase rack
    Things I still wanna do:
    New front struts and rear shocks
    New headlights smoked lenses
    New brake lights also smoked
    Maybe a nice aggressive sounding muffler

    Thanks and the sticker was put on it before it got it but I don't believe they make TRD regular cabs but I could be wrong.
