I have been wanting to do a build thread for a while but never got around to it so why not start now.
ABOUT ME
This is my first truck, I have always had cars most of which I modified and used them in autox or track days. I originally got the Tacoma to tow my 94 Miata to the track and had no intentions to modify the truck. I had no idea what I was getting into. Now I have sold my Bikes and Cars and daily the truck I have turned it into something more family oriented and now been taking the road less travel and exploring with my lady and kids. I like to use my vehicles for what they are intended for.
This is from the first weekend I bought it going to Putnam Road Course.
I made it about 2 years before I started to really get into it. My buddy went back to stock and sold me a package deal of his parts and it was down hill from there. Besides the parts he sold me everything I have been buying serves a purpose and is used.
His part list included-
TRD Pro Skid Plate (sale pending)
N-Fab Nerf Steps (For Sale)
12voltsolutions remote start
TRD Rigid Industries fog lights (For Sale Soon)

I try keep my truck as functional as possible. I was not planing on buying a bumper anytime soon because I am working on a trailer build to give us more room in the truck for the kids and pup. After this last weekend of exploring Land Between the Lakes on our own I decided a winch was going to be handy on our family trips by ourselves so I went ahead and knocked that off the list.
TRAILER BUILD
A buddy of mine started this build but ended up going to an RV so I ended up getting it for a great deal. He threw in just about all the steel I need to finish it with. A 48" and 36" tractor supply under box. 52" heavy duty slides for the 48" box. Other odds like hinges door latches and a few random things.
Started off as a 5x8 trailer cut down to a 5x6 with a 3500lb axle and axle flip kit. He had about 3" spacers to change the bolt pattern to 6x5.5 which I removed and put on new hubs with the same pattern. The wheels are 16x8 and tires are 265/75r16 which is the same size as my truck.
I also ordered 7 way plug to box, 7 colored 12 gauge wire, tail and marker lights that should be going on next week.
I have very little to no experience with trailers as well with welding. I have a little Hobart 140 that I plan to practice with and finish the trailer with.
Few more shots from last weekends trip to LBL.
