    I have been lurking for a while on this site. Love the content! This is my first post.

    I just bought a 2000 Tacoma 4 door long bed and I have a list of mods/upgrades I want to do. Every time I go to buy parts from a site it has you select your year, make, model, package...

    The problem: I never see an option for a 4 door and I am worried I am going to get the wrong parts. This has happened on every site I have visited (over 6). I see the option for 2 door, extra cap but NEVER 4 door.

    Am I doing something really stupid? I double checked the VIN to make sure I got the right year. I bought it from my father-in-law who bought it new so I know there is no funny stuff going on.

    The mods I am interested in doing: Lift, new wheels, new grille and probably more :)

    Ok - thanks for the reply.

    I see you are in Virginia too. What part? Any recommendations for a shop that might do the lift and wheels?

    2000... four door? The double cab didn’t exist until 2001. You have a 2001-2004 truck.

    Seems like the websites agree with you which is why I am confused. I put the VIN in toyota's VIN lookup website. It says it is 2010. I looked at the truck again to make sure I had the right VIN. Something seems odd. I am just not sure what...

    I am attaching the VIN lookup report from Toyota's website.

    I am an idiot. Sorry - it is a 2010. Nice way to enter TW as a moron...
