Hello, here’s my slow going build

Hello all,

new to the forum officially, like everyone I’ve used Tacoma world countless times for info before joining.

I currently own a 2012 Tacoma sr5 v6 auto in spruce mica and have done a few small things.

Bilstein 5100’s with OME 883 springs (I like a bit of rake), Dakar’s, and running 265/70/17 Duratracs. Monitoring everything with my scangauge

Some small things on my to do list, install the Uni filter and swap in the “Chinese“ knobs, color match the chrome grille surround and maybe a trd pro grille. Replace my tail lights, looking for early 2nd gen halogen lights or open to suggestions that look cleaner than the LED later 2nd gen lights.

Mechanically, I’m not sure what’s next. I’m a weekend warrior when it comes to off roading, as in I’m not crawling or going too hard. I’m loading up with camping and fishing gear and taking logging roads to ponds, streams or mountains a few miles into Vermont woods, but nothing insane. I use my truck as a farm rig too, moving pigs, grain, water, compost, getting stuck in mud, and as a carpenter use it for work daily, so I need to keep it practical. We’ll see, I’m sure I’ll find a direction especially now that I’m here officially..

This is my second Tacoma, I had an 04 for a long time and had to part with it when it started costing more to fix than it was worth. Though I now wonder if that’s true!

There’s my truck after the lift, trd sport wheels and duratracs and my old 1st gen I miss every day.
