New Upgrades

I just bought a 2013 Taco double cab TRD Off Rd. I'm trying to find out what I want to do first to the truck. It is completely stock and I want to upgrade something on it.

 

Um so make up your mind and pick something, and welcome.

 

Welcome

What are your thoughts on changing/adding first?

 

Lift, Lift, Lift

 

Tons of stuff to mod and pick from. Do your research and have fun!

 

You could upgrade the stereo, the suspension, the engine, the exhaust, accessories on the outside or the inside, wheels, tires..... what do you want changed?

 

the #1 mod would be a good lift and tires, make it a real truck... I leased my truck then bought it, after I put on my OME lift I wish I would have done it right away. And if you go off road or through snow or wet roads good tires are a nice up grade....

A great lift to start with is old man emu with new leafs.....

 

I want to do the lift and tires but its a little over my budget with a baby on the way. What is a good lift for a low price? I don't do a whole lot of off roadin anymore (got expensive) im only wanting to go to 33's. Also this is my first Toyota just came down from 2013 Silverado, are there any mechanical problems with the 2013 taco's?

 

I would suggest determining whether your first priority is to make the truck more badass or to keep it looking great. If keeping it nice is your goal I would suggest:

1. Seat covers
2. Bed mat
3. Tailgate reinforcement
4. Window tint
5. Entune screen protector (if your as anal as I am)

 

You mean "stepped up from"?

 

I'm wanting to go for the bether look right now, windows are already tinted. I'm looking for a cheap lift now because I'm tired of looking over and look
Straight through car windows. How much of a lift do I need to fit 33's?

Bilstein 5100 height adjustable shocks.

You need 2.5"+ of lift, and you will most likely need to trim your inner fender wells. Also might need to use a wheel spacer or a different rim thats pushed out further away from your control arms to avoid rubbing there.

 

You can get them cheaper from Heafstrongoffroad.com or Downsouthmotorsports.com

 

Pm me for great prices.

 

If nothing else, id definitely recommend upgrading those shocks. I don't know why Toyota would put those flimsy shocks on the truck in the first place.

 

Thanks

 

Don't do what a lot of us did and cheap out the first lift...buy once cry once...
