Brand New Army Green Taco Owner

Hey everyone,

Brand new taco owner here, located in Seattle. Looking forward to connecting with you all in person.

Just picked up my Army Green taco a few weeks ago and have been slowly building it up. So far I've got upgraded the wheels, tires, grill, and added rocksliders. The 275/70/17 Falcan Wildpeaks on the 17' TRD wheels rub a little when turning hard, so I'm looking to lift the truck 2" in the front and 1.5" in the back.

I'm totally mechanically inexperianced and only have a set of ratchet wrenchs but love learning.

Anyone interested in helping me lift my truck? I have the 5100 Bilsteins and just ordered the 1.5 " Icon Leafs packs for the back with Sumo Springs. Just need a set of hands with experience doing this, as well as some better tools.


Any DIY garages in the Seattle area?



PS just got it tuned with the KDmax tune and wow, knight* and day...

 

Congrats and welcome Moe

 

Really liking the tune?

 

Looking good.

 

Honestly, my 1994 Dodge extended cargo van drove better than the stock tacoma. I was really disappointed, the throttle response, gear searching, and lack of smoothness, uphill battles etc, felt like I was driving around with 1000 pounds. Mind you I was still breaking in the engine. Got the tune at 630 miles only.

Now, it feels like an actual powerhouse, the way Toyota shoulda made them stock, literally a pleasure to drive all day. City and highways are a blast, especially when passing.

I'll have to look up this kdmax tune. Sounds like it was a great purchase.
