Looking good. Plan on rewiring some fogs in there somewhere?

NESW20 01-08-2011 06:52 PM

yes, but to be honest, i hardly used my factory fogs. i do want fog lights again, but i need to spend the $200-300 elsewhere first (rear springs, rock sliders, skid plates). :D

still needs rear springs, but it's coming along nicely.

Sweet! The Allpro's are nice! Now it time for some glassworks!

Not too many around here... its mostly the Baja style

I think the ones on this baja taco are 33's! I have 265's on a "hoes" but going to try either 285's or even 305's since I currently have 16" wheels. Might even upgrade to long travel if you're interested in my coilovers and rear shocks.

I have the Demello rock sliders too since they are located SoCal. Definitely some good quality products

NESW20 01-18-2011 08:20 PM

yeah, next time i need tires, i might look at some 285s on the 16s. however, i might want a 4.5" backspacing for those.

i'll have to pass on the coilovers and shocks, thanks though! just keeping it simple with the OME. :D

i'll probably end up with the All-pro sliders as well, but i do really like the demello stuff. i've been on their site many many times, hehe.

next planned mods are rear springs and i'll paint the stock wheels black. of course i'll post pictures when it happens.

RRnold 01-18-2011 09:57 PM

right on! from what I've been reading on the taco forums, with the stock fenders, 285's on 16's is the best route.

I eventuallyl want to upgrade to a long travel setup. There are a lot of nice 05+ Tacomas with the baja look which makes it hard not to do.

This is a perfect setup right here! This thing looks so sweet with the Walker Evan wheels. He's running 315's! :party0030:
