    Finally decided after 3 years to make a profile on Tacoma world!! This is my 1st gen , I’ve owned it since I was 16 & I’ve done quite a few things. Most recent picture is attached , my next & biggest project on the truck is painting it. I’ve decided to go with the quicksand color from the newer model trucks since it’s already tan ( aside from painting the door jambs and everything else the engine bay won’t be too far off color ) & I haven’t seen another 1st gen this color yet. Let me know what you think & I will definitely update y’all with after pics!!

    Go for it. There’s a member from Hawaii on here with that paint color, his username escapes me though. There’s a Yoda decal on his tailgate.

    Seriously how? You must be running spacers. Mine are stock 265-70 and they sit real close to the UCA. I feel like a 265-75 would rub it.
