    lots happened since I was last on here. I got married, moved from TX to CO and got hooked on backpack hunting, got transferred back to TX, and totaled and rebuilt my Taco (second time for my wapiti wagon... poor thing) on a 70mph black ice roll... here she is before, after, and today...

    Parts on it are:
    -OME heavy front suspension
    -ARB front steel
    -lame twice-broken bushwankers
    -All pro heavy expedition leafs
    -customs length Billy's
    -timbrens
    -extended brake lines
    -u bolt flip
    -custom Sawco flatbed
    -AFE cold air
    -magnaflow single pipe

    Awesome work, I've gotta ask though, did you have that cab pulled and banged out or transplanted a whole different cab on? Was there any frame damage? Just asking cause I want to pick-up a wrecked Tacoma for a trail rig and keep my current as a daily. And it's always cheaper to go for a rollover.

    Did you swap your cab?

    I assume there was no frame damage?

    I love the flatbed and that rear swing-gate!

    I'm gonna assume that cab is not the same? Otherwise that is some amazing repair work, the flat bed actually looks really cool and I'm sure its handy.
