1st Gen Tacoma

Just got my V2 pro on Thursday, thought I’d post on here to track the progress of the truck, and hopefully spark some ideas for future projects. Follow along, or don’t :slight_smile:

The First issue that I brought upon myself:

I decided I didn’t want anyone seeing into the bed of the truck. On previous truck shells, I hated how exposed everything felt. So I saved money, and got what I wanted. What I didn’t realize at the time was that seeing backwards is sometimes important… Which led me to the Wolfbox G900 Pro.

In all honesty, not upset about having to spend the money in the end.

Cant see into the bed of the truck :white_check_mark:

Better backup camera :white_check_mark:

Dash cam :white_check_mark:

Drill the whole, run the wire, plug it in. It’s worth it.

Definitely could’ve made it cleaner. But until next time.

The truck and GFC combined is really nice. Have fun with it.

Thank you!

Just got back from the trucks first trip to Baja!

Decided to buy the Shitco awning kit, works great! Super quality stuff.

Also did some basic weather stripping for the tailgate to reduce dust. Here’s some pictures!

Also Salt shift rust protection was used prior to the trip and works great! (Cause driving on the beach is really fun.)

I’ve never been inclined to buy a black vehicle, but these pics of your rig with those wheels make me question things. And the GFC tangerine just pops. Nice choices.

Good looking rig! What size lift/brand? What size tires?

Thank you! It’s about 2.5 in the front and 3 in the rear. King 2.5 coils in the front and king 2.5 with external reservoirs in the back. Deaver leaf pack with a swapped second leaf for a heavier spring for more weight capacity. I went to North County springs in Escondido San Diego to have it done. He said if I would’ve brought him the stock leaf pack he could’ve done a lot more with it. If you’re in the area, he anvils all of his leaf packs by hand. Super knowledgeable guy! Tires are technically a 32, but it’s a KO3.
