2004 DC Build “Goldie Locks”

Just picked up a one owner, clean 2004 double cab, 4x4 SR5. I looked for a long time for the right Taco and finally found this gem. Been in the Portland Oregon area it’s entire life. Replacing my 3rd gen and couldn’t be happier with the switch.

Here is how she sat when I bought it.


Ditched the wheel/tire combo and installed Bilstein 5100 lift 285 70r 17 BFG ko2’s and 17 inch TRD wheels. Huge improvement.



I’ve got to switch my GFC from my 3rd gen, add an ARB front bumper etc in the near future I’ll update as the build continues.

 

Good job! Very nice

 

Very Nice

 

Added a new black grill and ARB bull bar bumper.

 

Love the look of the arb bumper. Might be selling my all pro soon for the arb
truck is looking real nice

 

ARB looks so good on that gen, nice choice in wheels too.

 

Thanks! It’s been a fun project for sure. The ARB is such a timeless fit on the 1st gen Tacoma’s.

 

Thanks! Those black TRD wheels on the first gen look good for sure.

 

GFC installed today. Swapped this over from a 3rd gen that I’m selling. Impressed with the ability to swap between 1st, 2nd and 3rd gen Tacoma models as long as your moving between the same bed dimensions

 

Wow. Looks great man! I just checked out the GFC, and that thing is amazing!
