My 06 Tacoma TRD Build

What brand of basket is that? I've been looking but I don't know what size or brand to properly fit on my DC.


Thanks :sombrero:

It's a Yakima Mega Warrior, however the rear mounts don't line up and have to be modified to fit the OEM roof rack. ( Since the cross bars are not adjustable )
I would have liked a Baja Rack but couldn't justify the cost at this time as I already had the Yakima Rack.

Man! I am just not keeping up.

Nice truck. Nice dog too.

Thanks! ( Friends Dog ) but thanks.

I really like that rear bumper. I'd love to cut a little of the panel and put in a bumper of that style.

Speaking of roof rack, did you move the rack from the hoops to the roof for stability, or something else. Just curious.

Your updates on the rig are great man. And... You ran slick rock in the 'trail limo' (great name)- now that's proper off road travel. I have fun memories of the stairs at slick rock.

Thanks, Bruteforce makes great stuff.

Oh I moved it forward and took out the extension so I could make room for my RTT. I got in on the group buy from CVT. :sombrero:

That makes sense, I didn't see the RTT in the shot.

The proportionality of the hoops over the soft top looks so good. I spent a weekend trying to fab something similar over my act shell on my old taco and it just never looked right, plus my skills at welding and bending aren't great.

That combo was exactly what I wanted to achieve in my head but I could not get it to work with the hard shell. Cheers again,

Nick

Thanks Nick, yeah I'm hoping to get my RTT in soon. I have a few mods in store, I just rigged up some limb risers, so when the trails get a bit tight & harsh I'm hoping they will guide the tree limbs over my Rack & RTT as it sits pretty high up.

I also plan on selling my wheels and going to 16's & 35's.

It's not hard for IFS, just have to catch some good lines. Especially if you're open diff. My trail limo made it though without too much issue.

Here are a few videos I filmed: ( WATCH in HD )
