    I made the mistake at 1st of unknowingly ordering one for a DB. Website said the light would fit all 3rd gens but it actually only fits the DB. Its the stuff you have to put up with owning an AC. Manufacturers forget they exist and say their products fits all Tacomas.https://www.tacomalifestyle.com/products/tacoma-3rd-brake-light

    Looks good. I want one badly. Just can’t afford it quite yet and I’m looking at some worn tire so there is that in the near future. Just put tires on daughters car.

    Ordered the x2 24f beginning of the month and it arrived at the store so I picked it up. Had issues with the stock holder/hook tie down. Surprised me because I thought I read where ppl got it to work but I must of read wrong… it’s on there and tight but I don’t like how it wraps around on the edges. I’m not into the flashy hold downs (bright and logos) any recommendations?

    I have the same lift kit but stock leaf springs. I want to level the truck. I just don’t know if I should go block or leave springs or just lower the front. Any suggestions are welcomed

    Ended up braking damn near every plastic piece of mine trying to get it unscrewed. Luckily had the aluminum housing ready to go and proper torque specs should save me the headache in 10k more

    edit: looks like my link isn't forum approved. I'd recommend off grid engineering's battery hold down and j hook package for Toyota trucks. comes with one 8" j hook and one 10" hook for about $50.

    Pretty sure taco vynal, then there’s a dude on here who does 3D printing for Off-road grills. Easy to install, both those and the Ss3 each roughly 30-45 min max.

    No the plastic tray w/nubs- that stayed in place. That could of possibly helped some but not sure I like the idea of trayless of some sorts.
    I’ll keep them in mind but honestly looking for a lil less bulk. At least now I know I need a 8” and 10” j hook

    If you’re ever traveling in Japan, they mark all their Buddhist temples on your iPhone/Google maps with the "manji" symbol, the mirror image of a swastika which stands for happiness and prosperity. Surprised me when I first saw them until I learned the history with goes back centuries before the crazy dude with the funny mustache used it for his sinister motives.
