    Hey Tundras, I/we am new here but have been active in the Tacoma World Forum. Looking to build the Brown Town Tundra for a trip in the next 2 months. We have has some loss in our family, some medical changes with people that we are close also. So we decided to make a life change. selling almost everything, we bought the truck and a camper to live out of for a year or 2 with the dog. Going to be spending time on BLM land and all over the US, looking to get out there and explore while we can.

    Truck Build - 2024 Tundra Double Cab 6.5FT bed
    - Skid plates - RCI
    - Rock Slider - RCI
    - Wheels/tires I dislike the 20" - Looking at method wheels, i don't want poke or much at all. Any recommendations on back spacing? Looking at 17" and 35" tires - Weight is a concern
    - SofTopper - building a rack in the bed to hold extra water/bikes/tools and anything fun - If anyone is selling a used SofTopper for the Tundra 6.5ft bed, please reach out.
    - Ironman Suspension - HD for the weight of camper and items in the bed

    Is there anyone here willing to help with cost of the items any deals I will put some decals on the camper/truck to show some support. Any help is greatly appreciated. Looking forward to taking all you guys on the ride with us too

    Attached are pictures of the truck, my old taco and camper

    Thank you for the warm welcome! I am working on a build sheet for the truck too. We completed the dog platform behind the seats (Removed the back seat) Pictures to come.
