Sidewinders Build

Hello everyone, I'm not new to Tacoma World, I've always used it for lots of great advise. But I've never created an account for my truck but recently I've done a little work and a few modifications to it and plan to do a lot more so I thought I'd share my progress so far.

Here she is the day I went and looked at buying her.
1998 with 209kmiles, original owner with all maintenance records askink $6k
I talked him down and paid $5,200 cash and drove her home.




My first thought was the tiny tires had to go and I needed at tool box so I bought a set of Kenda Klever M/T in 32x11.50 and stuffed them under with no lift . Needless to say I had quite a bit of rubbing.




So once I had all the rubbing I could handle I bought a spacer lift and AAl for the rear. I plan on upgrading in the future. I put the lift on myself in about 3 hours.i also bought Mickey Thompson Classic II with 3 5/16 backspacing for a wider stance.





I didn't take enough pictures before the lift but here are a few after and with the new wheels.











And then I had to prove it's not just a mall crawler, I had to go get a little dirty. I didn't really plan on getting stuck but hey it happens lol
