TrdGuyKc BUILD

Dope thank god i dont have to buy that maxtrax spindle just to fit 35” just need to do CMC then ill install damn wheels and tires Thank you brother for the reply.

i envy your set up wish i have the cash but just bought a house recently.

 

Thanks Eigi! It’s taken me a good while to actually get it to this, i have had it since Feb of 2007. A house is a better investment for sure. You have your priorities straight!

 

@TRDguyKC you gotta update this thread! Interested!!

 

Shoot man, you’re right. I always forget I have a build thread. I’ll get it updated this week.

If there’s anything in particular you are curious about I’m happy to share.

 

Just crushing on the ARB... haha
I'd love to hear about it and see more of it

 

I had a love hate with the ARB for a long time. I ultimately decided I loved it and never looked back. It was a win win because there was no lead time through 4WP and ran me $1040 shipped to my door. The only thing I didn’t love was the side profile of it by the fender.......so I got the grinder and cut the corner off to give it more of the “clearance” look.

here are a few more recent pics.

 

Your truck looks awesome man!
My buddy has an ARB on a 2008 blue taco.

I also kinda have a love-hate with the ARB. I like how it's crash tested and great quality. I like the look of them. BUT sometimes the front of it seems to stick out a little too far... your truck doesn't seem to look that way!

 

so the 2012+ ARB sticks out about 3” farther than the 05-11. The 2012+ retains a portion of the factory plastic bumper. 05-11 is fitted as a complete replacement. I have seen some 12+ run the 05-11 however.

 

That's interesting!
I definitely like the look of the ARB and hope to get one soon. They have a rugged look to them.

 

you gonna show off those big brakes?!?

 

I guess I should. I need to update the OP too. I’m behind the curve!

 

Also we need to plan a trip! I move back east in March.
