    Doc's AT FlipPac Build Thread

    Hey Tacodoc, I like the build - I have a taco as well but an access cab with the flippac too.. and the platform build is a unique one - I like it.. mine is improvised to say the least so I see room for improvement. Question for you though.. where did you source the step? -a

    I need an AT Flippac and I need your help

    I'll measure it when I get home (12 Oct) as I'm on the road until then (limited toolbox) We did measure the before and after and I lost about 1.25" with the camper on - add in about 120lbs between the sleeping platform and misc gear in the truck at that point. No susp modifications, stock...

    Greg and Pattis Tundra

    Dang. Pricing in the US is very attractive. My Tacoma SR5 Access Cab 4x4 was about the same when you take the currency exchange into account. Nice wheels!

    08 Tacoma clutch problems

    I have an 09 2.7l 5 speed - I have 50,000km on it and it's never really felt 100% proper from a shifting perspective. My old 89 was far better. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that I don't have the same issue.

    A climbers paradise.

    Very nice! I'm out that way in a couple of weeks - mostly to boulder around Bishop but your pics look intriguing!

    05+ Tacoma ARB Bull Bar Alignment

    Thanks all - glad to know it wasn't just me who a) found that it flexes a bit (the frame) and b) that it's not the simplest thing to line up. That'll be sunday's chore. New tires and a flippac later in the fall will round it out for now. Thanks again -a

    05+ Tacoma ARB Bull Bar Alignment

    Hey folks, I have an 09 Tacoma that I've mostly finished installing an ARB bar on it - the vibration of the bumper on the road was a cause for concern but I read another thread here that indicated this is correct behaviour - phew. My question was does anyone have any helpful hints or tips on...

    2001-2004 Taco + Camper: 4cyl or 6cyl ?

    Yep - first year in Canada for a while - since I don't haul a ton of stuff (my exploration tends to be rock climbing trips) I didn't need a v6 per se. It's not a rocket but I had an old 89 2wd with a 22R previously and this truck is much faster

    2001-2004 Taco + Camper: 4cyl or 6cyl ?

    Hey Robert, I took a quick glance at your site - nice trip. I have an 09 Tacoma with the 2.7l engine. (4x4 Access Cab) I'm not sure I'd be comfortable putting an ATC or FWC on it - it just doesn't have enough power to handle one plus people and gear in my opinion. On the other hand, if I stay...

    seat covers

    Very nice - the question I would have is what would one use for an 09 with the air bag in the seat? Or am I stuck with the cloth.

    RTT 2009 Tacoma

    That's extremely helpful. The XSporter came off the truck tonight too (two options down, one to go) Issues with the XSporter are 1. only one level to adjust it to on the tacomas and related to that 2. The tent is just too high. I have a machinist buddy of mine who's going to look at fabbing up...

    RTT 2009 Tacoma

    Hey, I went with the Thule XSporter - they aren't exactly what I want but for now they'll do for the trip. All I have to do is cut and drill out some plates for larger square u Bolts to mount the columbus to it, put in a tool box and mock up a partial wooden tonneau to keep the curious away...

    RTT 2009 Tacoma

    ok - back to square one. I ordered an A.R.E. DCU and it arrived - a couple of scratches and the seals were poking out on both sides and the rack looked a little poorly put together but the deals discounted it $300 so I was ok with that. I went to mount the RTT on it on Saturday and discovered...
