Going to add the 4x4 emblem as well to balance out the look of the tailgate.

I actually pulled a clip from the chrome bumper fascia and mounted the lights with some SS bolts. Only had to drill the hole out a bit. The lights are the same level as the hitch so there should be no issue of catching them if out 4wheeling. These lights are dual purpose. You will see when you follow the link.

I remember cleaning and waxing my Schwinn in the 70’s. Waxed the chrome fenders and even the rims and spokes! Good feeling to take pride in maintaining your vehicle, no matter your mode of transportation!

 

@tacos4cheap has his glove box letters on Amazon. Gotta love Amazon Prime! Received 2 sets in 2 days. $17.59 with coupon code “TacomaWorld”
Put mine on today.

Same here.

Good thing they came with 2 sets. The 1st T, which was the 1st letter I went to put on, slipped out of my hands and fell somewhere. I have no idea where it went, I looked for like 10 mins before I went and grabbed the T from the backup set.

The 3D letters pop way better than just the vinyl inserts. Plus it matches my red interior better as well.

 

Yep. They definitely look better than the vinyl.
That missing “T” is gonna show up one day. Like stuck to your wife’s dress on an important day.

If anyone in the Baton Rouge area wants my extra set of black letters, let me know.

 

Haha I know everything I buy is the same, not just the truck.

 

I hate when ya'll show me something I now need, that I didn't previously know I needed!

 

My first gen taco had a one ton axle, full exo cage before it was even paid off.

 

Quick question, what is the biggest tire on stock suspension you can put on a 2017 TRD Sport 4x4? I know on mine but I dont know on that one and my friend is asking me? It has 17” wheels and came with 265/65/17.

 

265/70/17 should fit with no problem, anything bigger and you're going to have to trim

 

Thank you!

 

Have the same ones. Not tapping into factory wiring was what sold me.

 

I appreciate the input from those who responded. One other thing. Are new coils a must or can I use the stock ones? I may call headstrong tomorrow and discuss things further with them. Thanks

 

5100s are designed to be used with stock springs but if you want lift with less preload you can buy aftermarket springs such as eibach.

 

How much work is involved with moving the OEM spings to the new 5100 shocks?

 

Peeled off the stock “Off-Road” vinyl and installed these by @CBoy808

 

Thanks. I'm a suspension dummy so can you explain to me the the advantage / disadvantage of either spring and how it effects the ride?

 

How do you like those tires so far?

 

Did the RMAS kit add any lift to the rear? And would you consider it a diy install?
I’m considering the kit and wanted to know if I would need to lift the front to keep it level. Thanks

 

Polished and sealed headlight and taillights. Will seal again just before winter.
