I'm starting to upgrade my electrical now. So after a lot of research, I made the first initial purchase today and bought parts to replace the alternator with a 250A alt and do the "Big 3" upgrade. Once this is done, the next step will be to get a fuse/relay box setup that will allow me to...

Not sure if I've had enough time to fully get the feel for the Icon's. However, the few time's I've been out they're great. I was able to go out with the 650lb springs and now the 700lb springs. It's definitely stiffer up front, but it rides just fine. Since this is my daily driver, I'm setting...

Thanks! I'm having fun.

I haven't gotten around to mounting it yet. So I typically don't store it in the vehicle all the time. When I go out and hit the dirt, however, I just put it on the floor behind me. And to be honest, the truck is still new to me. I've only had it just under three months. I may fabricate some...

I recently contacted BFGoodrich, because these are the tires I wanted to put on my truck. Here's the conversation: Me: BFGoodrich: Me: BFGoodrich: So...with this GREAT news, I went ahead and bought five new tires for my truck. They were a bit difficult to find, but I got them. I now...

700lb Springs When I ordered my Icon suspension, I requested 700lb springs. However, they were delivered with 650lb springs. Well, I finally got them and installed on 3/4/15.

Differential breather mod On 2/24/15 I did the rear differential breather mod. I used 3/8" fuel line, and ran it up to the gas filler. However, I didn't cut through the plastic to have it exit at the filler cap. Instead, the line is zip-tied to the filler hose and left up in the cavity between...

De-badge I decided to keep the look of this truck clean, so I de-badged it. Before: After:

Rear view mirror One of the things that bugs me about this truck was the ambient outside temperate gauge being tied to a HD radio station through the Entune Audio system. Really frickin' stupid in my opinion. I'd literally be up in Valencia, and it would tell me the temperature in Santa Monica...

Thank you! I'm a man with a plan.:smiley_drive:

Teck Deck Extreme Next was a Bird Dawg Industries Teck Deck Xtreme Heavy Duty version. This was a bit more involved with installation than everything else so far. But I was successful. Before: Install: Attaching support bracket: After:

ScanGauge One of the first things I did besides installing a K&N air filter was to install a ScanGauge. I choose to put this on the steering column.

UPDATED: 5/30/18 My name is Mike, and I thought I'd finally start a build page after lurking for a long time. My last vehicle was a 2001 Ford F150 2wd that I pretty much beat the heck out of. However, this Tacoma is my third Toyota truck. My first was a 1980 4wd and my 2nd was a 1992 2wd that I...
