    I just purchased a 2014 Tacoma traded in a Nissn Titan for It. I am very happy with it.. Here are a few things that I have done to it. This is the first day I got it.

    here it is with Plasti dipped wheels badges and weather tech, rain guards.



    Here it is with color matched center caps, front grill and bumper. now just looking for a 3-4" lift.

    Awesome truck! It will look great with a 3" lift. If you aren't trying to spend thousands on a lift I would suggest looking into the OME or bilstein kits. Pretty affordable and great ride. I just had mine installed and couldn't be happier! Anyways, welcome!

    Zoot, I'm going to run the tread off them then get better tires. With the 3-4" lift I'm thinking 285/70's

    I measured once and forgot what the exact hub to fender dimensions were but I rember it's a half inch shorter in the front and I think it was something like 2 3/4 inches in the front. Ride is great!

    I have been looking for prices, and looks like around $750 or so. Like I said earlier I will drive the tread off my tires then get new bigger ones..

    This is the kit I got, OME887/bilstein 5100s, just shy of $600. I would advise getting the UCAs though no matter what route you go. I didn't and it isn't required, but it's better for the truck and makes the alignment a bit better. I'm getting the LR UCAs soon. Headstrong Has great prices and great customer service.
