Alright so instead of just compiling pics in my profile where yall cant comment, figure I would share it here too..

Ill try to stay within a good timeline..

So, The vehicle in question is a 99 Regular Cab Tacoma 4X4, 2.7 (3RZ) 5Speed (W59)

This was the second or third day I had her, Stock as hell



It had an AAL that was quickly removed..


First mod was the sliders..


CB


Then I wheeled the piss out of it and realized open diffs suck


Fixed that problem real quick. (Lockright) (Best Mod yet)


Then I got a little locker head strong and took on john bull, Still mostly stock..



Cracked exhaust manifold --> Toyota Mini headers, The lockright mentioned earlier, and my front lift (OME 881's and N91S Shocks)


Added a toolbox somewhere along the way


Decided on the rear lift stuff ( Allpro 3" rear kit w/ U bolt flip kit, ext. brake line, 10" Bilstein 5150's


Before


After


Underneath:



Then I wheeled it like that for a little while (still on 31's)


Then I found an UBER BADASS deal on some 33x10.5 R15 BFG MT Km1's


Chopped the sideskirts..(PREP)


And then I bobbed the bed


Thats basically what it looks like now, Should have the bob finished up soon..
