Shadow's Tacoma build

[shadow images]

We picked up a 2009 Tacoma at the end of last year. Going to slowly build it over this year so we can get back out there after quite a few years off from being able to. Still making the plan up for it.View attachment 140642View attachment 140643

So far we have put a rear bumper on it after my wife got bumped in it last Dec.

Installed 2019 TRD struts/springs, 3/4inch spacer, PSC upper control arms 2019 TRD rear shocks and new inner/outer tie rods. Still want to replace the rear leafs to get rid of the 1" spacer but waiting to see what the weight of everything is going to be.View attachment 140771

Tried to look as some RTT this weekend but sellers seem to be real flaky here. Added a OB member patch to the roof and picked up a new IFAK for the truck. Will need mine personal one back for up coming TDY's

It's been a rough year and a half. With my wife already having PKD and then being diagnosed with Breast Cancer I have not spent a ton of time online. I did get a few thing done on the Tacoma when time permitted. Not sure when we'll be able to go out (have one day tickets to Overland Expo) Hopefully next year after all here surgeries and physical therapy are done.

Have a few things left I would like to get done but getting close.
