    Thanks!

    Thanks Will!

    Ah, such a fun trip out. Can't wait to go again. Thanks for the badass pics, Ray!

    Thanks! I felt that the 12.50 wide tires were just a bit much.

    Front end is holding up fine although Brian didn't quite think it through when welding some tubing right in the way of the UCA bolts. Made for a fun time trying to get it aligned. :rolleyes:

    Wow, it's been a minute!

    Still have my truck. Got addicted to driving on the track, but I still take my truck out, although very rarely. Had an issue with the rear kit and long story short, my driveshaft popped out of the transmission (thanks to the infamous American Motorsports :rolleyes:). Took my truck to Bobby, Paul, and the rest of the crew over at Solo Motorsports and they took very good care of me. Redid the whole rear end kit with the addition of a slip yoke as well as built me a new front bumper. I highly recommend Solo Motorsports.

    Alongside my buddy's lifted BMW X1 on a recent camping trip.

    Picked up a few toys along the way...

    '96 Acura Integra GSR
    Blew the motor on this car, but soon to be swapped out with the K20 that was taken out of my previous track car ('06 RSX Type-S...RIP)

    Bought this car bone stock in February and as you can see, being stock didn't last long. :oops:

    This truck is just badass!...
    When I first bought my '09 Tacoma "gently used" last year, I stumbled upon this build of yours.
    I thought you were insane! :headbang:
    I love the truck!
    Mad respect!

    Did you have to re gear it with those 33s and if so what was the gear ratio you went with?
