2018 Tacoma SR5 build.

Yes it's been a long and shitty process , a lot has come up this summer that we were not planning for and pushed a lot of things behind unfortunately . i scheduled to have this lift done back in March and the first opening was July 23, so i took it ! then ended up having the emergency spine surgery cuz of the tumor growing on it and that was the week before my appointment . But i got it done and she's looking great sitting in my driveway lol Back in the hospital again now with more cancer growing in other places, so to distract myself i obviously was online looking at truck parts and bought a few new mods that i can't wait to get put in once im strong enough to do so. I don't think my truck will ever be done, there is always some kind of mod or upgrade that can be made which makes it that much more fun lol
Yep. Pretty much never quite done. And if you get to the place where you're done, you'll go and do like Mr. Nobody and sell it to start another build :)
 
Yeah i dont think ill ever be "done" with my truck, i plan on having it for as long as im around. Love this thing to much, never had such a sweet ride that i actually like to drive and work on at the same time lol

Wish I felt that way. So many orders are unfulfilled for me right now. :(
 
Was able to recruits my older brother to help me out with getting a few mods done on the truck this weekend , thing has come a long way since I started this build . I can’t wait for it to be all finished ! We were able to install an aluminum retractable tonneau cover, that looks sick !! And we put on a DV8 front skid plate as well . I have an steel armer rear bumper with lights that will be getting installed in the next couple of weeks as well, I have some wider more aggressive fender flares that I’m getting painted to give it that meaner look . I’m currently trying to figure out what to get for spacers and what would work out the best for this build any help with that would be fantastic !!! Here’s a few updated pictures …

It's been awhile since i've posted an update on my Tacoma build, I've unfortunately been dealing with my cancer treatment the last few months. Since my last post i was able to get my new rear bumper installed and the wheel flares i had painted. I purchased a set of spidertrax 1.25" wheel spacers as well, that im hoping to have installed soon. I wish i could do it myself, but unfortunately dealing with all my treatments and recovery from having a tumor removed from my spine has pushed me back a lot and unable to physically work on my truck anymore. (it's been a shitty few months). Here is a bunch of pictures from the build so fare. A lot of before and afters comparisons and upgrades.
