    What have you done to, or with, your Tacoma today?

    I'm running the Genesis Offroad kit. If you have the option of putting the aux battery on the passenger side I'd go that route. I didn't have that option on my sport.

    What have you done to, or with, your Tacoma today?

    Spent the last couple days repairng the damage caused by placing 100lb batteries on 6 small mount points. Had to stop drill and cut damaged sections of the OEM battery shelf out and build a doubler to remount the dual battery tray. Used 16 gauge steel, 3/16" steel rivets, and rivnuts. I used a...

    COVID boredom. Stuck at home on a travel restriction since March... Sitting here like, "Say when..." They finally opened it up a bit, but it came just before the mega heatwave of 2020. So, we sit some more until... Oh, now the entire country is burning. Awesome! 🤦‍♂️🤬

    All of the above. Recovery gear is critical, but most of it is useless if you're wheeling alone. Something many overlook is your spare tire. Is it the same size, and if you slip a bead do you have the tools and/or equipment to fix a flat? Plan for worst case, plan your route, and TELL someone...

    SoCal Truxedo tonneau short bed

    I have a Truxedo Truxsporst oft tonneau that I removed from my bed a few months back to make room for my bed rack. It was on my truck for less than a year and is still in excellent shape. No rips, tears, or wear of any kind. Took it off, rolled it up, and it's been sitting by my toolbox since...

    What's in your bed /controlling your cargo?

    I went the permanent fix route. The stock bed floor is slick as ice when wet. Coated entire bed with Herculiner. Kit available at Autozone and comes with a gallon if liner. Recommend picking up a can of thinner (xymol or equivalent) to help with cleanup. I was able to do 3 full coats with some...

    Thanks! I love the Prinsu! Super solid, and the customer service from CBI is top notch. I've snapped off screws on the rack a couple times (they used to be aluminum) and they sent me new hardware no cost. This last time they sent me a complete set, again zero cost. I've used it many times to...

    Recently added a Renogy 100w solar panel and Voyager charge controller. Had to remove the Prinsu and modify the Z brackets from Renogy to get it all mounted. Opted for 10ga prefabbed cables, also from Renogy. Had a spare power tray (because I bought the wrong one initially) that I modified...

    Show me your sliders

    I went with RCI bolt-on sliders. Mainly because they only use DOM outer rails. I didn't go with fill plates as I thought they'd be a pain to clean off caked on mud. Solid product and they offer a military discount too boot.

    So, been busy as usual. Done a few more mods to the truck over the past couple months. The latest was a chore. Cleaned up the engine bay wiring for better access to the fuse panel, took me damn near 10 hours of straight work. Also, mounted some lights behind the grill for less washout in dust...
