Gixxerphil's 2013 DCLB Tacoma

Nice truck! Adding a lift kit and more aggressive tires would be great I think.
I don't really have plans for a lift. The only reason I would is if it needs it to get back to the original height if/when I add the bumpers and other things(OME/Dakar will be the choice if needed). I plan to go to a 265/70 or 75 tire (I've read that's the limit on stock suspension). I don't want to get into regearing and the other associated mods needed for bigger than stockish tires. I do like the look though.

I'm suppose to pick these up Friday afternoon. They are listed for a 16-18 Tacoma, but I figured for the price I would take a chance they'll fit on an 05-15. I think these will go good with the eventual Tacoma bed trailer I'll build :D

I've gotten a few more pieces lately. I picked up this Diamondback tonneau cover off CL for $50. It just needs to be cleaned, some black paint and it will be used for the eventual Tacoma bed trailer. It has no dents and came with both keys.

I picked up a set of bed stiffeners from a guy on Tacoma World. Bentrodders is his name. I highly recommend them. They will be put in this weekend.

I got a volt/amp meter and USB(2.1A) charger to put in place of my 2 12v ports(the covers are broken and it drives me crazy)

I also picked up some LED light strips to put under the bed rails.

Bought some 17" T4R wheels so that when it's time for brakes, I can upgrade to the 5th gen T4R brakes
