96 baby blue Tacoma

So I got tired of the truck payment game so I sold my 2011 Cummins 2500 last year. Part of the deal from the boy who purchased it was I’d buy this truck to beat around in for 1000$. Had 329k on it when I got it. Base model no ac power steering or power windows. 5 speed 2.4l 2wd.

It needed a lot of tlc to turn it into a daily beat around truck so here she is.

 

So far since I got it I’ve

Had the whole exhaust replaced
All new brakes
New shocks
Junkyard seat
Removed a bunch of plastic from the inside and deep cleaned every inch
New turn signals headlights and tail lights
370z Nissan wheels
Reese hitch
Flush mount LEDs in the rear bumper
Led gauge cluster
Led turn signals
5% tint
Kenwood radio
New grill
New tailgate currently black
New sway bar bushings
Led 3rd brake light
Berlined bumpers
Water pump and t stat and new hoses
New belt
Plugs wires
Led headlights
Rear diff flush
New door handles
New window cranks
Newer style mirrors
2017 side emblems



Spent weeks cleaning scrubbing and painting things

Best part. She’s rust free as can be.

Thank you

Really want to lift it 3” on some 15x8 Mickey Thompson classic polished bullet holes and some 31” all terrains soon

 

Nah man. I love those Z wheels. But you do you man!

Just don't bro it out and put black wheels on it. Be different.

If you wanna lift it, @Sperrunner is our resident expert at lifting a 5 lug.

 

I really like how it’s sits.
Nice clean ride.
