    -Will be adding some way to load two pit bikes on the back above the fuel cell and trunk

    Will be buying helmets and fire suits for my wife and I soon.just for safety and for maybe a few races.dont plan to race it crazy or a lot just a couple at the most.

    Not sure but would like to see some 37s on the truck maybe in a few years.and maybe a toyota v8 with a s/c. But this is all dreams there

    So this build has been through two trucks of mine. First was a 2000 2wd Tacoma TRD. (NOW 3 TRUCKS)
    Someone ran a stop sign and I t-boned them. Total that truck
    Kit was still good.:dancingbacon:

    So I bought my current truck
    2002 4wd manual Tacoma TRD

    Bought it with about 147,000 currently about 162,000 about 12 months now
    Came with the TRD supercharger. URD 2.1 pulley. URD upgraded 6 injector kit. Also found a split-second timing/calibrating box in my truck behind my dash. That is all I got from the guy. He didn't really know anything about the truck. Had some blown out front Stay-away shock with some 5100's in the rear. HID's

    So now the truck is a little different
    Front
    Camburg 3.5" kit
    8" King coilovers
    2.0 2" King bumps(being installed)
    Total chaos spindle gussets
    Total chaos extended axles
    Total chaos upper control arm gussets(being installed)
    Drilled and slotted rotors
    Glassworks unlimited 4.5" flair

    New kit is a solo xlt kit with 10" king coilsoverswith solo custom valving
    With some crazy axles


    Rear
    2.5 King 14" coil overs(being installed)
    2.0 2" King bump stops(being installed)
    3/4 link kit(happening)
    Tundra axle(being installed)
    4.10s with Detroit locker
    1.25 " lift shackles. (Gone now)
    1.5" wheel adapters(gone)
    Glassworks unlimited 4" flair

    The rear idea might change to the DDL kit. Started out as keeping it smog legal but have decided to just link it with fuel cell but keep as much bed as possible.

    Wheels
    5 Ultra xtreme x102 15x8
    5 bfgoodrich all-terrains
    1 32" bfg on a unknown rim

    Extras
    Solid motor and transmission mounts
    Snyder one piece headlights
    Spray painted grill and chrome piece on bumper
    Put green LED lights in my cluster and two gauges on my pillar
    Have three pods going to be mounted to the cage. Boost,afr and egt
    Mastercraft 3G seats with pro armor 5 point special edition all black harnesses
    Going to have two fire extinguishers inside truck, will dyno mat the inner truck and put stock carpet and headliner back in most likely. Then try to panel back of truck where the plastic was
    Goals for truck.


    DD link to keep it street legal. Changed to full link with fuel cell. ✅
    Cage, keep as much stock components other than seats. ✅
    Camper shell and keep my bed as open as possible
    Doug thorley headers
    If I decide to ever ditch 4wd then 35s
    Maybe get solo 4x4 XL kit and run 35. If I ever decide to drop 6k on a new front kit and axles✅ Just missing the 35s

    Truck was dropped off on June 25, 2016 for all my rear set up cab cage and all my other goodies I had building up in my room

    As of 1/9/2016

    Finally mounted up my 42" and wired it up
    image.jpg
    I used some very small screws and some silicon so make sure my wires were waterproof. I don't like messy and loose wires

    This was when I kind of cycled my suspension and trimmed. Since then I trim the mounts of the bumper and some more fiberglass.

    image.jpg Use a fuse tap for the fuse box inside the truck ....the sensors got to the right side of the lc2 box...then plug the gauge in and the red is power black ground and the yellow is the input for the gauge.
