    Hey guys,

    Apologies in advance for the tome. I'm super stoked about the truck and have now substituted TW for much of my porn time.

    Anywho, I picked up my first Tacoma in June (2017 Tacoma DCLB TRD OR silver + tech JBL rah rah rah + tow package + TRD catback).

    After about 150 miles I had my Toyota sensei install stage 4 Icon all around (2.5 ext travel + CDCV & remote resi in the front. 2.0 + remote resi & AAL).

    A quick trip up to the desolation wilderness and a few dents in the skid plate later more mods became necessary. A couple of weeks later the FedEx driver dropped off 5 Procomp series 40 rims and BFG 255/80/R17s...then the rubbing.

    Back to the sensei for a deep CMC (I asked that they try to clearance 35"s as that's the plan in a few years).

    As luck would have it my Pelfreybilt bumper shipped around the same time so they threw that on, cranked up the preload another inch to level the front, added a Smittybuilt XRC 9.5, Sonoma County Crawlers fog light pods, amber covers and dual row 30" light bar.

    This afternoon I threw on a RCI lower arm skids and a Relentless Fab bedrail CB antenna mount + heavy duty spring and 4' Firestik. I'll work on running the coax and finding a stash spot for the Uniden 520XL next week (through the body plug under the passenger most likely)

    Tomorrow an N-Fab Rapid Strap system will go in to secure the full sized spare and cover.

    Future mods:

    - Mobtown IFS skid
    - Rago corner brackets
    - Rearfacing light pods
    - BAMF or Mobtown sliders
    - CBI T3 rear bumper OR high clearance (Pelfreybilt, CBI, or otherwise)

    Thanks for read. Looking forward to being part of the TW community.
