Was holding off till I got a few upgrades to start my build thread but I’ve seen a few people wish they had started at stock so figured I’d start now. I have a 2018 Tacoma SR5 DCSB 4x4. Traded in my 2WD ‘16 for it. So far, other than a K&N filter everything I’ve done is aethsetic and not performance related. Recently got my hands on some 285/75/16 Cooper Adventurer A/Ts for cheap so once I get my lift and some wheels with proper backspacing I’ll get her some new shoes and an offroad ready stance.

    They are Auxbeam LED headlights. Amazing product! Good light output and excellent fit. Have the built in LED fan and come with a CANBUS if your truck needs one. Can’t beat the price and quality for $60. Here’s the link:

    Nice truck but I personally don't see the appeal of the mesh grilles. Is it better for radiator?

    For me it is purely aesthetics. When I got my original 2016 2WD I saw this grille on customcargrills.com and wanted it for the retro style logo. I’ve become fond of it and passed it on to my ‘18.

    Thanks man! Glad to see another local on here!
    Nice I’m really happy with mine. Working on suspension and wheels/tires then moving on to recovery. Just working on small projects that I’ve had planned between the big investments

    Nice! Yes I’m really happy with them and the light output they give. And the fan is very quiet. For $60 you can’t beat the quality. Unless they burn out in a few months lol but I’ve read a lot of great reviews on them.

    Lol gonna get the ToyTec 2inch lift listed below. And the ATX Chamber 2’s listed below. And I already have the set of 285/75/16 Cooper Adventurer A/T’s I’m gonna use. Got em of a fellow Yota driver in Chattanooga for $500 with less than 500 miles on em. Still got the rubber ticklers on em lol
