    Hey guys
    Transferring over from tacomaworld.com
    General new guy info
    Local 78 union plumber
    Wife and I reside in west covina, ca
    Mainly hit trails in our sxs and dont beat up on the DD's too much

    My 2015 tacoma was totalled 3-16-19 and we took the insurance check and found (what I think is a gem) this 2010 DC 5.7 with only 60k on it. Have all the service records from the 2 previous owners (both local) Looks like it has some bilstein 5100 in the front and leveled out on some bro methods.

    Plans are (after lurking for a few more weeks)

    Raceline 934 clutch in bronze
    6112/5160
    Falken 35s
    Gecko led bed kit
    Phoenix android radio
    12" kicker off a ARC audio amp
    Camper shell
    Clazzio leather covers
    Magnaflow
    Trailer brake controller
    ARB Locker

    Ideally I want to rebuild my old taco but now its bigger brother

    Heres the tacoma in a few stages followed by the new (to us) tundra

    Lookin good! Im about to get suspension upgrade on the Tundra, getting rid of spacers and putting in coilovers so i can hit the trails.
    I also try to avoid the traffic into LA, on fwy before 4am and try to get on way home before 4pm.

    How do you mean easier? I'm fairly competent with a wrench, not too worried about labor

    Welcome from NorCal. Not much research required for lockers. ARB is the only one made for our trucks. On the bright side, you end with onboard air too.
