    Ordered this intake kit since the stock one wouldn’t work anymore with the shock hoops. We’ll see how good the quality is since I got it for super cheap compared to what others I’ve found online run.

    Not my cup of tea. Had one on my Tacoma and almost ripped it off a few times. Pic courtesy of new owner:

    I’m also from Tacoma world and I loved my taco. The independent suspension was very limiting. Also the departure angle. Great trucks tho!

    Weld driveshafts together, finish rear brake lines, install seats, get some shock towers for rear, get some shocks and that’s about it.
