    Just bought this truck, one owner, came with the grill guard, the offroad tires, the rear cover and is gorgeous. The next few mods I would like to make to it are spacers to push my tires out maybe an inch or 2 (what is best in your mind?) and want to change the head lamps to a darker type to compliment the blue black color. Im also trying to come up with a plate name for it.

    Welcome to TW from Fertucky, NV.
    Your Taco looks good. Be careful about putting wheel spacers on.
    It looks like you don't have much clearance up front and pushing them out could cause them to rub when you turn if you don't lift it.

    thank you for your service SSG.

    take a look around and at some lifts before you throw those spacers on there though, or like 4wheelin said, you might just make your tires rub

    Yeah, am gonna definatly lift it, im thinking real hard on 3 inches. I think that is probably about the limited height I will go. I am excited as hell to get to work on it though, there are quite a few projects Im going to put into motion on this truck. Right now im deployed so will have to wait as I am expected to return with in the week. Again, thank you for the replies

    I am also deployed, bought the truck while I was here and it already has a 6" lift with 18x9 xd addicts and 35x12.50's....I have a painted grill for a satoshi mod, retrofit HID's, nerf bars, and new black badges just waiting for me to get home to play with....
    I am loving this thing already and have spent virtually no time with it...LOL
