    Ray10's - Thanks @scs_vuth @SCSPerformance


    Hi all, demiTacoma here! Just picked up a '21 double cab. The best option - and what really sold me was the manual transmission and I'm loving it. Prior to this was a 2013 Nissan Titan that has been one of my favorite vehicles. I'm hoping to put it good use for camping and some overlanding.

    The community here is so nice and informative. I need to go back and thank all the people/posts that helped me learn about the truck, tires, lifts, and how to drain the bank account lol

    So far with just over 100 miles:
    - RC 3" suspension lift, 2" leafs and the 1/2" diff drop
    - Ray10's with Falken 285/75R16's (being installed today!)
    - Blue LED Interior lights
    - Glovebox and center console organizers
    - Blackout emblems

    On the way:
    - Tonneau cover
    - Pro grille
    - De-chromed tail lights
    - Steering wheel cover (hey it all counts right?!)

    Installed the lift by myself in 2.5 days. Counting breaks, scratching my head a lot, pumping myself up to cut the frame, it took around 20 hours. I have the Old Man Emu 1" diff and rear axel spacer but want to wait and see if the vibrations are noticeable. So far it's settled in at 38" front and 38.75 in the rear.

    After blacking out the door emblems I've decided to de-badge it completely except for the TACOMA on the tailgate. Might have some stock and black out emblems for sale ;)

    Absolutely beautiful truck! Can't wait to see what else you do to it. Edmark Toyota, are you in Idaho? :D

    Put me in line for the blacked out emblems if you decide to sell.
