    Hey everyone, this is my first Tacoma. Just acquired it from a friend. I've known him and his truck for a while so it's like it's staying in the family. It's a 1999 3RZ 5 speed 4wd with 282k. It has some combination of suspension and body lift, 33 inch bald boggers, and a bed with a huge dent in it. Plans are to refresh the suspension and steering, move up to 35's, and pull the dent out of the bed as best I can.

    However, I am not new to Toyota trucks. I also have a 1996 3rd gen 4Runner that I love dearly. It has been in the family since 1997.

    Scrap the bed and make a flatbed to skip the process of bobbing for a better departure angle.

    I assume the 4Runner is the daily driver?
