If you only had 3000

If you only had 3000 bucks what mods would you do to an 05 double cab. Ive already put a topper on (2000 bucks) and am looking to put in an in dash nav system and speakers. After I redeploy I am looking to spend 3-4 grand on mods. The rest the money needs to go in the bank, what would yall do

 

are you lifted yet wheels and tires audio with 3 k i could get my truck dam near done bumpers sliders and front coilovers

 

no lift, stock tires. Only mods are a topper (leer), shit ton of roofracks (for kayaks, us boaters tend to go over board with roof racks), brush guard and nerf bars. Im not a big fan of either the gaurd or bars I might up the money later down the road for some all pro bumbers and sliders. What kind of lift (dont want to go over 3 in) and what size tires. Im, at this point, truck stupid. Kinda hoping to cure that

 

well its all in how much money you want to spend lots of people do the 5100 shocks all around and do well with it or you could go king coilovers for 2.5 inchs of lift tires would be 285 70 16 i think im sure chris4x4 will correct me

 

hahaha this man need help !!!

 

bump someone start the timer on how long this takes

 

ok you guys have screwed me. I am sitting in afghanistan and in between games of tag with the bad dudes I serf this sight, and day dream. The 3k will probably turn to 6 or 8, Hence this post. Who has installed the all pro
Sheet Metal Style Front Winch Mount Bumper (Powdercoated black)

? What does installation take. Im a pretty mechanically inclinded guy just never worked on vehicles. Is it just a matter of takeing the bumper off and bolting to All Pro one on or is there and Mods needed. I am thinking of buying it shipping it to my folks house and installing it on leave. Also I am unsure if I will be able to get my lift done on leave so how retarded does a truck with the All pro bumper and no Lift look. Further more keep sending lift and tire suggestions. Being from bama I should now about this shit huh. Then again I can read and have all my teeth so am I really from bama?

 

front lift rear lift rear shocks
you might need UCA's too

or the cheaper route

 

havnt yet. if i do become it my old man (drives an 87 f150) will have a nice taco, dog and garage full of parts he never wanted

 

any beta on that bumper

 

If I had $3k to blow I'd say screw the tacoma and go on a long hot sunny vacation...but then again it's -31 deg. celcius here this morning

 

yeah a vacation sounds good this time of year. Were getting hit pretty hard on this side of Canada too

 

so uh yea vaction is nice, Ill probably take on but how bout that truck, looking for ideas to blow money on my taco and beta on the all pro bumber. help a guy blow his savings

 

If you don't wanna do the vacation-

Some other ideas are:
-SUPERCHARGER!!!!
-Soundsystem
-Tinted Windows
-lift
-UCA's
-Double din dvd player
-Color matched everything (front grille surround, rear bumper, side mirrors, door handles)
-weather tech floor mats
-wet okle seat covers
-all pro bumper, whatever the nicer looking one is, if there is more than one model
-Sliders
-Winch

that can blow your savings a few times over.

Other than that- I would really consider taking your g/f if you have on- or any other hot ass girl on a vacation (I would take my hot ass g/f somewhere secluded/tropical and watch her fine ass prance around in a bikini. Lots of lovin, lots of crab, lots of sunshine, lots of fruity alcoholic beverages. And did I mention lots and lots of lovin?)

 

There are lots of options for the lift (up to about 3in) with a new bumper.

Cheap route: Bilstein 5100s with an add a leaf
Middle route: Toytec coilovers or OME 886s both with an AAL
Expensive route: Icons or Fox upgrades like TexasIslandBoy linked to

Still many more options out there too...

If I had $3k, I'd go with: OME 886 coils probably with the N140s shocks they offer, Allpro 3in leaf replacement pack, Total Chaos UCAs, BFG MT KM2 285/70/17, and an Allpro plate bumper. All this will probably run a bit more than $3k now that I think about it but go big or go home right?

...and you're not the only well educated dude with a full set of teeth from Alabama! 24 years and still no accent, Woot!
