    LC100 Deluxe ARB bumper on a 1st Gen Tundra?

    I'm in the process of selling my '03 AC and purchasing an '06 DC that comes with a butt-ugly Iron Bull bumper on it. It needs something more refined. So I'm exploring the idea of using an ARB deluxe bull bar off of a 100 series Land Cruiser, partially because of the availability of the ARB...

    Teardrop / Expo trailer parts suppliers?

    I've been having trouble finding distributors for some of the parts I'm looking to line up for a potential trailer build. I'm in the midst of the research stage, and though I've been able to find virtually all of the "foundation" parts, I'm looking for more options for sourcing stuff like...

    Aftermarket front bumpers and air bag systems

    So I thought I'd throw this out there to the www and see what kind of a response it gets- I know that ARB bumpers are advertised to work in conjunction with factory air bag systems. Can someone explain to me how that works? Are there any other aftermarket bumper manufacturers that even...

    RTT mounts for DC Tacoma

    So I've been exploring some of the options for mounting roof top tents for my 03 DC. Here's what I've got and what I'm thinking: -I have an ARE topper/shell over the bed, and I'd like to keep it there because of the security and weather protection it provides. -The fam' includes my wife and...

    Quick! Tire question!

    I'm looking at a set of used Duratracs for my truck- they've got about 1500 miles on them. They're the 10 ply, load range E tires. I'm wondering if they'll be too stiff for my '03 DC Tacoma? Or for my 99 4Runner for that matter? I have no lift, and seldom load the truck down. No aftermarket...

    Wiring Questions - Fuses, relays, lights and switches

    So. After spending entirely too much time reading through threads that half answer my questions, I thought I'd try to consolidate some answers in one thread. 2003 DC Tacoma, 3.4, blah, blah, blah. It has one set of cheapie 55w driving lights wired in up front. This weekend I'll finish up color...

    92 Ex Cab Pickup ?'s

    My buddy is looking at one of these and I'm a Yota guy now, so I'm not sure how to advise him on this one. It's a 92, been mechanic owned most of it's life, has new shocks and tires, with 70k miles and a topper. He's asking $3500. Seemed a little on the high side to me, or at least not a steal...

    WTB: 01-01 Taco DC topper/cover/tonneau

    Whoops, meant 01-04 Taco... I'm looking for something, anything to cover, enclose the bed on my 03 DC Tacoma. My truck is silver, but I'll entertain anything: full camper shell or topper, soft topper, or tonneau cover. Let me know what you've got and when you're coming to Montana next :D...

    315's vs 285's, R16

    Okay, aside from clearance issues and gearing (I'll address that later) what the opinion around here on tire size? I couldn't find much on 315's here, and I don't really want to ask on TTORA, because I'm anticipating carrying more stuff than most of those guys do. My truck is an '03 DC, V6...

    Helper springs for the leafs?

    I did some searching, but nothing specific was coming up.... What's the thinking about adding helper springs to a set of rear leafs? I'd like to be able to retain a comfortable ride, but still have the added weight carrying capacity when I need it. How does a set of helper springs affect...

    Other Toyota fourms?

    So after being immersed in the Jeep world for 7+ years, I am completely starting over with this Toyota, and starting from the ground floor. I'm glad I've found my way over here, but I'm struggling to figure out which other Toyota forums are worth my time. I don't hang out online enough to wade...

    Plate steel rear bumper for 04- Taco?

    I was looking at Sonoran Steel's website yesterday and noticed that they make a sweet plate steel bumper for the 95-04 Tacomas, but it's real pricey and they don't ship. Does anybody else make a non-tube rear bumper for these Tacos?

    New Tacoma owner! with a few questions.....

    So, I'm a recent convert from the land of Jeeps.....I had (still have) a 98 XJ mildly built. And I'm really stoked about my new Tacoma! It's an 03 crew cab, 4x4, 3.4, TRD. I'm excited to have a bit more room than I had in my Cherokee, as much as I liked it. So here's a few of my questions...
