    Well,

    The first shakedown on the new rig went well. Took, Trail 3N34 to deep creek, Got some great photos and was able to figure out what changes we need to make this week to get it more dialed in. This truck is going to be a beast once we get everything finely tuned. In the meantime enjoy some pics! Special Thanks to @DesertDigger for being an awesome photographer and trail leader.

    You'd make it down there no problem right now. Haha. I just pulled the third member outta my tundra axle I had laying around. Might be down to try and go further once I get it in my rear end.

    If you get the +2 Kit you do not need fenders. That's one of the best parts. Have you ever had fiberglass on a truck before? Its a PITA

    not only is it a pain to install but if its a truck your going to drive everyday I wouldn't put them on that as just my opinion. I have em on this truck because its required for the suspension but I wish I didn't have to use them

    I just don't think they ever look right. Ive seen a bunch of Tacomas with fenders and they look funky. Whether the paint doesn't match, or they don't line up right. I understand having them if you have a 3.5" Wide kit and if your going full pre runner but for just a +2 more overland style long travel I don't see the reason

    Great build info and beautiful truck. How much for the whole kit and install? Could you fit a 35 in. without rubbing?
