    Hello! I am new here, here's a little about me. I live 30 miles north of Portland, OR. I am a staging manager/projectionist and video processing lead at a local live event firm. I have a 2014 Tacoma I bought certified used last June. Gearing up for some excursions this year, most notably a trip from Portland to Alaska, with stops at McArthy, Chitna, Valdez and Anchorage. My taco is currently stock, but essential mods for this trip include a light lift (hopefully clearing 285/75r16's on stock rims), front bumper with winch, and bolt on rock slides. If anyone could help me out and point me in the right direction on the forum to get some info on these mods I would greatly appreciate it. There is a lot of info on here, can be somewhat overwhelming to find what I'm looking for. Thanks!
