We then moved on to actually connecting things to the sPOD First up was out set of Baja Designs XL80 combo driving lights. These things are almost made to be mounted behind the Gen 3 Tacoma grill. It's like a mansion behind there. I don't know exactly why Toyota designed about 16" between the...

Oops! Looks like we missed the electrical work update here before we left! Crunch time here at the shop! We just got all the electrical work (for now) finished late this week and below are some of the mods we've made so far. This is only the first stage of this build and the next phase...

After that base work was completed we add the first stage of the Alu-Cab we are demo'ing on this truck. We bolted on the Alu-Cab Expedition Series III rooftop tent and Shadow awning. Here's a shot of the tent and awning set up in the backcountry area of the Navajo Reservation during our...

We got the suspension, wheels and tires on only a few days before we had to leave for Overland Expo so didn't have time to update the thread.. But we definitely got the chance to test it all out while we were on our trip. We started with the Icon Stage 6 kit with billet aluminum upper control...

Working?

Gahhhhh. I don't get it. I'll try again...

Photos are working but then not working. Can you see them?

Hey all. Thought I'd post up a big project we have going at the shop. We are excited to announce our partnership with Alu-Cab USA as the West Coast distributor for all their amazing gear. We recently purchased a 2017 TRD Off-Road to build as one of two Alu-Cab USA demo vehicles. This will be a...

Feel like for $59 you can't really go wrong there. You'll spend at least 3 hours mocking that thing up and getting the hardware. We do a lot of Rhino-Rack stuff at the shop and the quality is very good.

I'd go with an 80- or 100-series Land Cruiser with a diesel transplant or a bigger Vortec. If you're going to anything more than a gravel road you won't want anything real huge (like an Excursion).

It's a lot cheaper to rebuild an old rig than to buy a new one!

All awnings out there (with the exception of the Alu-Cab Shadow Awn) mount the same way. The awnings have an aluminum backing plate with a c-channel that allows a captured bolt to slide and and mount to a bracket. Most smaller awnings come with a simple L bracket as in the picture posted above.

We'll have another big Tacoma build over the winter.

We're actually the first dealer for REDARC in the US and can order anything you might want from them. The problem with the REDARC managers is that they're 220v. Last time I spoke with their team they were "thinking" about doing a 110v version but I haven't heard anything more, which most likely...

Check out Turtleback. Lead time is only about 1-2 months right now and they're legit. We are the NW reps for them and I personally stand behind their work. Top notch stuff.

We recently had the opportunity to spend a little quality time with a customer’s new 2016 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road. We began by adding a REDARC SBI-12D Dual Sense Dual Battery system manager with two new Odyssey performance AGM batteries and a superb auxiliary battery tray from Off-Grid 4×4...

I happened to be there when whatever moron torched the Bronco did it around 2:30am. It's too bad, there's not much chance of getting that thing out of there now and being that it's well above the waterline it'll likely just sit there with glass shrapnel all around for a very long time. That...

GAIA x2

Tacomas are a great platform. We recently began a project at the shop and I'd say it's looking good... https://adventure-ready.com/2016-toyota-tacoma-dual-battery-system-alu-cab-equipment/

That's something we can ship if you want. Maybe $15 extra.
