    Looking for some advice for making my yota a trail ready truck but also it is my daily driver. I live on oahu and if some of you know yokes or kaena point there is really good fishing spots out there. Unfortunatly the road getting there is cery rocky. I do have a 4x4 2007 tacoma with 3 inch lift and 32's. I do have sliders and a breather mod for the rear end. I wana be able to get through the rocks to the fishing spots without having to worry breaking something. If you have any ideas just let me know. Btw Oahu does have recon laws.

    Mahalo for your support.

    your lift is taller then mine and i take my truck out all the time. To me picking the proper line is way more helpful than all the mods you can put on. I
    You can buy a guitar for 20K and if you dont know how t o play it its not of any use to you, granted I have no idea what that area you are talking about is like and how big the rocks are but i seriously think that the proper line selection is what its about

    I posted some pictures to show what it kinda is like but i couldnt find a picture of the start of the trail. The start has a lot of dips and rocks that are not huge boulders but can cause a problem

    Your looking pretty trail ready now! If anything maybe a bigger set of capable tires will get you a bit of extra clearance. Air down if necessary.

    No need for 35s. Wait a sec. I don't a think there is any reason for 35 but there will ppl who will be like. Hell yea put on 35 and while you are at it do the long travel also. I agree with the air down part, maybe go to 33 granted it's only a little bigger but no different than going from 2 1/2" to 3" lift. For 35 there will be lots of work to lift more getting spacers cutting etc etc etc.
