    2017 Tacoma ARB bumper

    http://store.arbusa.com/Assets/PDF/3423150i.pdf 22 page color instructions on the web site. They weren't available when I did mine, and I agree the photocopies were difficult at best. Very happy with the product, though.

    2016 Tacoma DCSB...a work in (slow) progress

    Overdue for an update: - Installed a Switch Pros setup. I didn't have enough knockouts left for everything I wanted to run, and I wanted them all together in one spot. This thing is worth it's weight in gold...even a troglodyte such as myself can wire up anything with very little risk of...

    Pongo, The story of our 2016 Tacoma

    True story: I live in CO, my family is still in NC waiting for one of the kids to finish school before they relocate. I was home this weekend, and my wife had some continuing ed stuff in Burlington. We drove up there from our farm outside of Pinehurst and I waited in the parking lot surfing...

    What do you use for a truck gun?

    16" Rhodesian FAL on an old Imbel receiver or my 14.5" Hodge Defense Mod 2 with a Surefire Suppressor and a Vortex Razor 1-6x. Depends on where I'm going as to which one goes in the truck.

    Mog fans: Breslau Rallye

    A few years ago Magpul partnered with Couch Industries to enter a Unimog in the Breslau Rallye. After much editing and deliberation, we uploaded it to Amazon Prime where you can view it for free with a Prime membership. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LQV7Q9O/ref=cm_sw_su_dp Enjoy!

    2016 Tacoma DCSB...a work in (slow) progress

    I have an auto. The shifting is annoying...I am going in to get the new transmission flash and hope that cures the gear searching at highway speeds. I'm still happy with it, but I notice. I am unsure about the gear ratios, but I believe they are the same.

    2016 Tacoma DCSB...a work in (slow) progress

    Nah, no budget issues here, I just wanted it for the body and drivetrain. My list of things I needed were: Double Cab, 4x4, V6, cruise control. The SR5 met that, so that is what I got. I had a Limited package 4x4 Crewmax Tundra, and a Platinum package 4x4 Sequoia also. All of the little things...

    Switch Pros vs. sPod switching/wiring solutions

    Looking for some experience with a couple of different wiring solutions. I'm largely done with all of the mechanical stuff for my truck and it's time to wire up everything. I'm not an electrician by any means, but I can handle these I'm fairly certain. I'm looking at the Switch Pros SP8100 and...

    HEMA Explorer North America

    Anyone know when there is going to be an update? My layers show up as a grey box on my iPhone and iPad. I have downloaded all the maps to my devices, not trying to run off of data or anything. I've uninstalled and reinstalled both twice and still only occasionally get a map to actually show up...

    I'll leave it in the bed, unless the bed is loaded for a trip. I have a cover on the way also.

    2016 Tacoma DCSB...a work in (slow) progress

    Added the RCI sliders (which you can't see in the pic apparently...) and mounted the jack on the Front Runner rack. Not shown: Slee compressor bracket and factory style rear locker and compressor switches. Slee is great to deal with, having them and RSG right down the road is a luxury when it...

    Yep. First tank around town on the new setup was 17.8MPG.

    2016 Tacoma DCSB...a work in (slow) progress

    Yeah man, you're right down the street! Wiring weekend...winch, house battery, sPod, lights, etc. Looking for the rear bumper next. CBI is top on my list, but RCI is right up the road and has a Gen 3 Tacoma rear swingout in the works.

    What do you use for a truck gun?

    Just throwing it out there, your JAG and command screwed you. 77GR OTM (Sierra Match King) is not an expanding bullet. MK262 Mod 0 and Mod 1 passed legal review well over a decade ago and is approved and authorized by the DOD. If you're still in, PM me and I will get the DoD/DA authorization to...
