    2017 Tacoma Trd Off Road manual
    Trd skid plate, TRD CATBACK EXHAUST
    How's it going everyone. I have been reading forums for a long time. Just bought a 2017 Toyota TRD Off Road 4x4 m/t premium package/ tow package from the dealership 38,300 out the door. I have pictures and information if anyone needs further details. I also just purchased a TRD skid plate and TRD CAT-BACK exhaust, which I will be installing this weekend.

    Goals

    Hoping to upgrade to a a CBI front and rear bumper along with suspension 3" lift in addition 33" tires. ( over the next 1-1/2 years..) Price is not an issue, so help in that direction would be greatly appreciate. I will be posting pictures of before during and after for each of my builds.

    A couple questions.

    Would you recommend changing the stock gears to 4.30 gears once I get the lift/33" tires. As far as shocks go I was looking into, icon/fox/king, interested in mid travel. occasional on/ off road.

    I work about 70 hours a week not at a computer. So bear with me as I don't always get to read every forum about my questions. My post is for the experience and or bored individual looking to shed some light.
