I am now driving an 03 Dcab TRD Tacoma. I will add the build of the tacoma to this thread. I do miss my 4runner but I absolutely love my new tacoma. I plan on keeping it forever. Seriously. When I got the 4runner I really wanted a tacoma but got the 4runner instead. While the 4runner was fantastic and I may own another one down the road I absolutely love the tacoma. Literally my favorite vehicle of all time. Its a classic to me.
This is the build of my old 2001 4runner Limited/current-2003 Tacoma Dcab TRD.
Lets go back to May of 2008. I had a 2002 Avalanche, gas was $4 and it was killing me. Always loving toyota (tacoma was 1st truck) I wanted a 4wd toyota. Looking around local I found a beautiful 01 4runner. Fully loaded, I mean EVERYTHING. I was in love. Still had original window sticker. The dealer gave me a good deal and the day after I seen it I was driving it home..
I drove it stock for a while until I found this site and TTORA. I was addicted. I saved for a little bit and decided to do everything at once.
I ended up with OME setup with 285/75 nittos and helo maxx rims
This was a great setup. Awesome for a DD.but it wouldnt stay that way for long.
Couple months later I found someone selling there ARB bumper so of course I had to jump on that. Few pics of cutting off the frame plates and the bumper..
All mounted up and ready to take on anything!
With the addition to the arb I was bitten by the mod bug. Sliders were next. Wasn't sure what brand to go with so when in doubt go custom!
After being powdercoated
I love the way they turned out and its always good to support a local business.
