    Been lurking around the site for a few weeks now. Just got a used 09 Tacoma from a good buddy and I have already done a few simple mods due to this site! This place is going to make me go broke! Haha. Thanks for all the great info!

    Well seeing how your from the Bay you should come to one of the meets or trail days. We run trails quite a bit up here in NorCal. There should be a mod day coming up in the spring or summer.

    Awesome... another Tacoman with A-TRAC... soon the world will be ours to four wheel anywhere!

    Do the differential breather mod (see my link below) for any water crossings over 18" deep.

    Nice write up on the breather mod! I'll have to do that. I unfortunately don't do much off roading but I would Ike to start since I did it when I was younger and loved it. I know about Hollister, but where are some of the other trail rides around here?
