    What's up guys,

    Just wanted to post up and say hello. Hopefully I can find some events to come out and meet the locals out here.

    This is my truck if you see it around.

    Well see, I did this stupid thing previously, and I sold my 2012 TRD OR. Out of the 30+ vehicles I have owned and sold, the Tacoma was the very first one I ever regretted selling. So 10 months later I was able to get myself into another, and I had to break it in properly!

    I tried my best to stay out of the dirt until I lifted it, purely to make installing the lift easier for me, but that didn't work either.

    Hey! Welcome! Might be off topic, but is anyone down to meet up from the SJ area and go off-roading and trails? None of my friends own trucks.

    Awesome looking truck btw!

    Thanks guys!

    Fancy seeing you here!

    I get them from yotamafia on instagram.

    I'd definitely be in for that. I'm planning to take my girlfriend to Frank Raines soon, I've never been.

    Did you do the install yourself? Haven't done an alignment like that so curious how you made sure they were aligned on both sides (or if you looked online for instructions).

    Also, welcome from Sunnyvale.

    I just pick a line on the truck that is close to where I want the sticker, then mirror it on the other side.

    I was thinking there'd be a little more prep that that (measuring from a reference point, taping a corner or s/t, etc)! Did you do a wet application (with soap/water)?
