I love your truck! I'm torn as to what I want to do, lift and expo my 2012 taco, or trade it for a 06-08 Dodge ram with a cummins for the same purpose.

Thanks! The dodge would be better I think, more room, and the diesel engine. My lil yota is underpowered and small. But a supercharger will hopefully solve some of that.

Vin was telling me you have some pretty sweet plans coming up soon. I'm intrigued.
Also completely random but wanted to let you know that I'm @yotamafia on Instagram.

Sounds awesome! I'm gonna be so jealous of everybody with the SR8s when they finally come out

What's all the creaking during articulation? Is it just the uniballs in the upper control arms or...? Seems like Tacomas always sound like they're tearing themselves apart on trails. I may be replacing my jeep with a tacoma as a more family friendly rig so I'm really curious what all the noise comes from.

Just seems to be the normal noises during off road travels. I believe from the body mounts just flexing out. And the gopro picking up a bunch of noise making it sound worse than it is. While I'm in the truck it doesn't sound nearly as bad as it does on camera.


Some Updates:

Picked this up: ( just the bare unit so I need to source a bunch of parts )

Also got my Prinsu ( zscott ) roof rack on, still playing around with the configurations.

I just installed a SC in a 2014 taco and you are gonna needs a lot of parts and half way into the instructions to install get all crappy lol. Hope you picked it up for cheap otherwise a new complete unit is far less of a headache

What is the make on your soft top? Might be buying a taco in the next year for the wife, but she gave me a hard pass on getting a camper shell but would be alright with an easy to remove soft top.

yeah, I'm checking into it. May just have to sell it.
