Thinking about buying a Tacoma

Hey guys, whats up. I've been looking for a Tacoma and came across this site. I found this used '10 not far from me and everything looks good but I had a couple of questions I thought someone could answer for me. I havent seen this truck in person yet.

First, This pic of the engine looks different than all the other ones I have seen. Is it just missing the cover? Is that an after market intake on it?



Second, it looks like maybe there is a lift on it? It's 2wd BTW.





Thanks for any help.

 

yes to all of ur ?s

 

kinda looks like there is a leveling kit on the front

 

yea, it's missing the engine cover and it is an aftermarket intake. stock kind of coils back then snakes over to the tire well. second, i dont think it has a lift, if it does it's only about an inch up front. the back definitely looks stock...it's got some nice tires though!

welcome to TW!

 

keep looking

 

Thanks for the responses. I guess the cover just won't fit with the intake on. Is that a mod you guys commonly do? I am coming from a lowered crew cab silverado, so this looks lifted to me LOL. Is there anything to look out for with aftermarket intakes and such? Guess I will head over to the performance section and dig around. Thanks.

 

OK

 

it looks like a leveling kit IMO!!! b/c my truck looks the same except that i gotta AAL in the back...even with bigger tires it wouldnt look like that...more space in the fender wells!!! i think its got the Readylift leveling Kit which is what ive got on my 06

 

how much?

you want 2WD?
