The bed rack is AWESOME! Adam built it exactly like I wanted. It can be installed and removed in minutes if I don't want it on the truck all the time. It does not resctict access to anything in the truck. I have a toolbox in the bed of my truck and I wanted a rack / basket that would still allow access to the tool box. This setup has worked out GREAT! The rack is set up so that I can interchange the basket or my RTT.

You've been looking for my ride WHERE?
...yep I'm still around - sort of - I'm in Afghanistan for a few more months. I'll be back in San Diego probably late October. I'll be itching to hit the trails!

One of my favorite Toyotas. :sombrero:
Awesome build, if something were to happen to my 05 Tacoma I would hunt down another 98-00 TRD and build it like yours. I miss my 98 Reg cab and was going to do a very similar setup like yours. Best of luck :smiley_drive:

Thanks man!!
Yeah - there's really only a few more things that I really want to do to her. I have definitely shifted from "BUILD" mode to "MAINTAIN" mode.
I still want a front locker, I gotta get better seats, I want to jump up 1 tire & rim size, POSSIBLY re-gear, brakes upgrade, headlight upgrade - and a few other odds and ends. For the immediate future, I just want to take care of a few maintenance items on the Tacoma, and get my trailer really finished up like I want it. I also need to regear my Land Cruiser to 4.88, and get some sliders on there too, so i can take it camping if I want.

You said you live on t---der drive. I know you are out of country just looking to see if I could find it. No big deal wanted to see how close you were,maybe keep an eye out for ya. When you get back look me up on Linda dr. American flag 61ft in the air hard to miss.

Are you perhaps confusing me with Jaime? I live on t___der drive... We've exchanged PM's in the past
Keep your eye out for this truck (thought the tent is off until needed).
Yes, it's a converted PreRunner also - Jaime did his before I did mine

I live in Tierrasanta, in San Diego - off of S---o Rd. My truck is being kept at an undisclosed location, at my in-law's house nearby.

The wife and I were just down your way in Escandido at my aunts house for a week, awsome down there!

I saw your post where you said you were going to SD. I wish I had been home because:
#1 - San Diego is better than Afghanistan
#2 - So I could finally meet you, and buy you a drink.
