The front bumper will be carrying a Warn Winch 10K rating...

    I look at overland vehicles as the mule of off-road vehicles and for this build I want it tough, compact and still being a daily driver. So I picked the trusty 3rd generation Toyota Tacoma. Now I’m jumping into this build thread with a bit of progress under my wheels and a solid foundation for...
