Well after an 8 year build my 03’ dbl cab Tacoma rolled out of shop 3/4/23 for its maiden voyage to Pismo for a shake down. Shake down turned into a flogging! Truck was supposed to be a cab donor for rolled truck of same type, more on that later. Decided to build this as I wanted to change so many things. Parted old Tacoma, saved a few parts and Anthony with Dezert Toy Fabrication got after it. Many reasons why it went 8 years but one drive and all was forgotten (almost 😆). It’s caged rip to tail, his custom j-arm kit, which is available as a-arm or j-arm production version, inverted shackles outside frame rails with 50T leaf packs from old truck, trussed 1st gen tundra axle… blah blah, I’ll update with build progress photos from a Toyota forum layer but here is some current photos.A618CFFC-2D60-4545-BFBB-D78C321098B2.jpeg3ECB97C0-6295-4B21-9DAE-23BB13EA3648.jpeg5737095F-36A6-4CB4-B1A3-E4C8734E7D4C.jpeg

Used my AAA chase truck to get her home 3/4/23, could not secure a trailer. Thank goodness for that premier package free 200 mile tow, drive charged it under 100 so burned up a 10@ but my 200 mile tow. He almost ran out of fuel in Ventura and had to help find a station with diesel, they all advertise it but don’t have it lame!!! Nice of him though!!!

Tucked in driveway while I clear garage out. She will sleep tight in my cozy cramped garage!!
