I have been searching many forums and was wondering if anyone had an opinion here for me.
I recently bought my truck, a 2004 Tacoma TRD Double Cab.
I do not do a lot of rock crawling, but do find myself on a lot of bad roads getting to fishing holes. I do this in Northern California, a lot of rocks, not a lot of mud bogs.
Eventually I plan on having bumpers, winch, lift, and armor; but for now, I want to take the first step in what will likely be a long road to a nice expedition vehicle.
What are your opinions on what I should get first: sliders, skids, or lift?
I have some recovery gear (snatch strap, hi-lift, lift-mate, tow strap).
As you know, the Tacoma doesnt have good lift points for the hi-lift (hence the lift-mate) and I was thinking sliders would be a good first step.
If I get sliders, will a suspension lift later affect the slider install?
Thanks!
