    Hey guys!!
    I am new to the tacoma world! I've always dreamed of getting a tacoma, but I never thought it would happen! I previously had a 2WD 1999 Toyota 4runner, which had all sorts of problems, turned out I fixed so many things on it and put so much time and money into it that I decided to sell it and finance a 2WD 2015 tacoma! I've had it for about three months and I've changed out the tires and rims ( I have bfgoodrich tires and hostage off-road rims now) still thinking about maybe either leveling it or lifting.... super excited to see how it turns out!

    Welcome aboard! A 3 inch leveling kit may be a bit much.. ie you may have a bit of bro lean going on. I think on stock tacos the rear is about 2 inches higher than the front.

    Congrats! I went from a 2000 4Runner to a 2017 Tacoma. It is nice to be back in a truck!

    Hey Katie welcome a board:wave:. There is plenty of guys and gals with 2wd's tacomas :mudding: that look sexy AF with some billys on all four corners and Maxtracs. Look forward to seeing your truck being modded.
