    Hi all, i have been lurking a month since I decided I wanted a Taco. had a couple dealers run me around, grabbed a ACLB Inferno TRD Sport yesterday. So now I need to start jacking with it. Its been 20 years since I owned a Toyota. I am a pro technician and shop owner, no plans for serious mods, just street usable things to make life better/easier. Hood swap is on the table, I am too old to care about scoops. This forum reminds me of a few motorcycle groups in the level of serious research going on. Kudos.

    Welcome to TW.

    Since you are a Pro Tech, keep an eye on the timing cover.
    It has been known to leak on the 2016-2017 truck.
    Nothing you shouldn’t be able to do your self. (Lots of work)
    Not the easiest to do for those that don’t turn wrenches often.
