    You don't buy a truck for its fucking fenders!
    2.5" lift w/35's
    Hi everybody. I've been a member for about 2 years, but have never posted. I've just been creepin around the forums looking for cool shit I can do to mod my truck. I have a 2012 TRD Sport DCLB Tacoma with Bilstein 5100's, OME 887s and Total Chaos UCA's in the front and a 2 inch block under my leaf springs. Somehow I was able to fit 35's under the truck with the cab mount chop and removal of the plastic fender pieces. Still rubs at full lock, but have pretty good turning radius for the size of my tires. Still have lots of work to do to the truck. (I have a feeling the work will never end despite my wife being pissed off every time I spend money on it) I try to get offroad at least once or twice a month or more if I can. You might start seeing me answer some questions and stuff in other forum topics because I'm a Diesel Mechanic by trade and I've learned a lot about our trucks over the past few years of owning it. Feel free to ask me about my setup on my truck or any plans I have for it in the future. Thats what these forums are here for after all. I look forward to helping anyone out and learning more new things on the forums. Also looking forward to any possible Tacoma offroad meetups. I live in the central valley in California, so you can hit me up if you want to check out some trails or want help modding your truck.
