Hello Tacoma World,

I recently started a build on a 2004 Tacoma. A good buddy started his a year ago on a new Gladiator and we started hitting local trails and Anza Borrego. That turned into him getting 10 of us on a 5 day overlanding trip to Death Valley.

It was a blast and I was hooked...

So, I have upgraded suspension and wheels and am looking next at new bumpers and a RTT so the wife and I can start desert camping. I know I have a long way to go before I get this ready for mountain, desert or surf trips but with your collective knowledge and experience I am hoping the make fewer mistakes than otherwise.

Thanks
