    Dobinson’s coils and shocks. SOS sliders, ditch light brackets, and front skid. Rigid ditch lights. BFG KO(dos) More minor stuff.
    Had same problem and spaced. Offset accomplishes same thing. Also didn’t need to chop anything but mudflaps.

    Did the 2013 taco's stock wheels come with TPMS sensors? Sport specifically.

    I have the same truck.

    So yes

    Too many to list.
    Ha!
    It's my wife's cutter that she uses for quilting and stuff. Tricky because you have to cut the vinyl like you mean it, put some oomph into it otherwise you won't get a clean cut. And use a ruler with a metal edge on it as a guide when you cut. That helps.

    Check out @ChadsPride. He has them on his, maybe he will post some pics for you. He's a nice guy and I'm sure he could help you out.

    Swapped out my Tuffy Box for the stock bed storage. I bought a cap and don’t need a locking bed box anymore.

    I have 285s with -6 offset and I had to do a little trimming. Not much to really notice. I didn’t need to do a CMC on mine.

    I don’t think I posted up some of the photos from the completion of my last project. Did the audio upgrade using the Key Amp and wiring harness to keep my factory Headunit but improve my sound significantly. I’m extremely pleased with the result. Wasn’t looking for bass which is why I selected what I did. Parts listed below.


    JBL Club 9630 6x9 3-Way Coaxial Speakers

    Focal ISS165 6-1/2" 2-Way Component Speakers

    Genuine Subaru H631SFJ101 Kicker Tweeter Kit

    Kicker 45KEY1804 4-channel 45 x 4 Key Smart Amp

    Dynamat Extreme on all four doors.

    I wired the amp into my center console for easy gains and loss adjustment while driving and altered my center console organizer to make it fit with a crisp look.


    All and all I’m pretty happy with the upgrade and it was nice to retain my factory look.
