Got a chance to get some pictures. The rack is linexed so you can pick out the base of the rack behind the utility track and the tonneau bracket. I also ran a bead of silicon caulking down between the rack and the bed to keep water out. So far it has kept everything almost completely dry
I can take some more pictures of it tomorrow when it is light out. But essentially there is a base plate on each side that wraps behind the utility track on the side of the bed and bolts in using the same 5 bolts that hold the utility track on. I can still roll my tonneau up but I do have to...
I tried my best to get my dad 4runner for my first vehicle but there was no getting it from him. It was a work horse for our family for almost 10 years. He recently got a 5th gen t4r and likes that one even more. Telluride is an awesome place! I went skiing there a couple years ago and...
Ive spent many afternoons doing that lol. Sometimes it pays off but most of the time it just turns into a nice drive.
Appreciate the compliment on the truck by the way. It was actually my dads 4th gen 4runner that led the way to me getting a Tacoma.
Not really any public trails around here just some level B roads none of which a stock 4x4 cant do. I have done some events with the tri state stump jumpers on private land. Most of them have wranglers or rock buggies and the majority of the land they go on is more than my truck will do.
I actually got rid of the front spacers in the spring and switched to bilstein 6112 up front. I did run them for about 30k miles though. They are alright for most street driving. Offroad there was a noticeable lack of suspension. In my opinion save up for the 5100's. If I had to do it...
Figured I better start a build thread on here. The truck started as a bone stock double cab long bed Tacoma. I initially started building it purely as a tow rig for the family boat and occasionally pulling an enclosed trailer. My dad and I picked it up on a long weekend I had from college...
Hey new member here. I'm from Johnston but currently go to school in Dubuque. I drive a 2009 Tacoma. Its been to door county Wisconsin multiple times to camp. It'd be nice if there was more around here. I've explored a good chunk of the level b's near des moines and up here in Dubuque.
Hello Everybody!
I am new to overlanding. I'm in the process of building up a 2009 tacoma. It started out as a tow rig for boats and other toys and slowly transformed to what it is now. I am usually in the Des Moines or Dubuque, Iowa area depending on if im at school or at home. I have...
