    Hello all! I bought my first Tacoma today! I got a 2012 Grey Toyota Tacoma Prerunner SR5, V6 4.0L, with some XD Revolver rims and Nitto Terra Grappler All Terrain tires. The dealership got it as a trade in and the previous owner didnt list all the specs of the truck. Pics to follow!!!Thanks guys -FrankO

    Def. 5100's up front, but is that a AAL or the TSB leaf pack?

    You may be correct that 3rd leaf looks long for an aal but the truck has a little rake indicating an aal. I'm not too familiar with what tsb packs look like (I know there are 4 leafs) so it's hard to tell.

    It looks like you have a 1'' (or 1.5'') block under your leafs.

    So far Ive plasti dipped all my badges and I plasti dipped my grill. I also installed a 21" blitzpro LED light bar in my lower valence. Still want to tint my windows and eventually put a bigger light bar in the bottom valence.

    Need help deciding wether to build an AR-15 for about 1200 or if I should retrofit my headlights for about 700? What do you guys think? So far Ive been leaning towards getting the retrofit.

    I personally would go with the AR, i love mine (I built it myself, except the upper) and wouldn't trade it for the world.
