    I'm running a very similar set-up. Same spacers and final backspace. You'll still rub the frame just a bit but it's not enough to damage anything. It just takes the paint off the frame. My plan if I went to 37's was a 3.5" BS beadlock and a 1" spacer. Seemed easier then notching the frame. lol

    Not exactly today, but I recently picked up this aluminum shell on the used market. I'm looking forward to some camping once the weather cools. I'm still working on weatherproofing. There are some big awkward gaps around the tailgate that I haven't quite found a solution for.

    If you haven't insulated (even headliner or carpet would do the trick) you'll want some airflow to deal with the condensation. My aluminum shell drips on me even when the windows are open lol

    Yours fits great, I'm jealous. Mine is off an S10 or something. It's just a little shorter than the tacoma cab and its bedrails are about 1" wider on both sides.

    Whole lot about that truck I like. Color-matched fender flares, bronze wheels and a hood skewp. Good-looking truck.

    Did some rust-busting, ditched the lift blocks and installed some fancy red and blue parts under the fender with some steel braided brake lines also.

    I went to put wiper fluid in the other day and more went on the ground than in the tank. Where did you get your new one from?

    Just to make sure you have adequate compression in the affected cylinder and possible nearby cyls and if you don't it lets you know where the pressure is escaping
