    James has helped me a few times with my truck and I just want to give them a shout out.

    I had my Leeper coilovers rebuilt on Monday and this is the 1st time any shop has ever called me a few days after to see how everything is riding. James called me himself and it really makes me appreciate how great he has been to the Tacoma community in San Diego. If you are looking for a shop that treats you more than just another credit card look no further than The Truck Shop!

    They don't make LT kits, they're just distributors for other companies.

    By the way, if you LT the front, you have to LT the rear.. It's a money pit, trust me.

    See my build page!
    What kind of sliders? Did they fab them or source them? How much did it all run you?

    I've had my truck there a couple of times. Great guys, I actually bought my truck at miramar trucks.

    Heard some good stuff about The Truck Shop... I'll have to check them out. Have a coupon from Miramar Trucks (where I got my taco) for a free oil change at the TS. Good excuse to get my butt down there!

    That's how I met James. I bought a Truck at Miramar Trucks. I had lost my free oil change and called him up about it and he said just to come in and he'll take care of it. I have been going there since and now with my Tacoma.
