    Yeah looking good bro!!! I was in the same shoes as you! Had the setup in my head for a couple of years and just got it don't finally a few months ago!!! I was really pissed though because this guy in my town bought a 09' Tundra in white like my Tacoma already lifted with black rims on it!!! He's rich so he just had the dealer do it I presume! But anyways, people started calling me the "Jr." version of him!!! I was like F--- THAT!!! He's got a shi- load of money, I don't!!! I put LOVE into my truck, he didn't!!! But anyways, hey whats with the stubbie antenna? You can't get that in your garage anyways!!! Haha, j/k! I had to put one on mine as well because it kept hitting the garage door!:eek:

    Nice Lift. I just bought an 06 with a 2.5 inch lift with a leveling kit and my 33's are rubbing the front fender when I back up and turn the wheel all the way, any advice?

    You need to trim the black plastic inner fender where the tire is making contact. This is normal for the 2.5 - 3" lifters running 33s.

    Hey, sorry for the Junior comments. I mean I am glad that someone has the money, but like you have said wanting and saving for years (literally) to do what you want to your truck and there are guys that are just ordering that way. Happy for them, just disheartening to me (means I must work harder.)
    Stubbie, because the stock kept hitting the garage door.
    I was soo happy when I was able to pull into the garage!!!! :D

    Yup what Delmarva said. I have a 3 inch lift in the front and had to trim that front black plastic lip piece. I also noticed I rub on the back part as well kind of where the mud guards went on the back fender. Don't think you can trim that though, it looks like its part of the body.:(

    Again, thanks to all for such kind words. It really means alot. I knew that if I was able to actually lift it that the proportions of the truck would be great with the longbed, and I needed a little extra room for camping gear.

    Yeah like the other guys said. I'm not a huge long bed fan but with the 6" instead of the 3" and the 20's instead of like 17's, balance it all out and looks perfect! Good job!:thumbsup:

    Ahhhhh!!! Man another black-on-white themed Taco!!!!:mad: Haha, naw I'm j/k! Yeah I was also thinking about the 6" lift but with the short bed and 18's, I'm really happy I got the 3"! Plus with the 6" I wouldn't be able to park it in the garage and in the town I live in, theres a bunch of little bastard teenagers all around and wouldn't trust it sitting out there!:eek: They already broke out one of my windows on my older car last year when it was parked on the street!:mad:

    That situation sucks! Yeah I did all the math for the lift and tires in my head and measured the garage door a few times to make sure that it would fit. My brain is like a rusty steel trap. I am just glad that my wife is good at math to back up my calculations. I could not bear it if my baby was abducted.
