Got my "new to me" 01 Tacoma yesterday. This will be a slow build until I get a better job.

Build plans:
Toy front axle
PSC hydro assist
5.29s
Nitro chromo shafts
passenger drop dual case with 4.7
Radesigns triple stick
38s
Rear links with 16in air shocks
Leaf spring front with u bolt flip kit
Stretched 8 inches
Rear of cab cut out, bed attached to cab, 3 seater. Rear portion of the cage will go all the way to the tailgate and have a detachable roof.

Etc etc. Just making this post to document everything along the way.

How I got it: (sweet front end eh?)

Ordered a new grille and I'm getting miata bucket seats on Sunday.
 
Man that bumper is awesome! :D
Looking forward to see it come together!
Let me know if you want to go wheeling any in the meantime!
 
sweet bumper dont change a thing great potential
 
Timeless...i would expect nothing less mr. jihad jeff.





When we going wheeling???
 
Picked up a leer fiberglass cap for $40. Its ugly and beat up but works. It will be sanded and painted black asap. Going to pound out some dents tomorrow and get a new stubby antenna to replace the coat hanger.

Installed the new grill today. Now I'm not afraid to drive it around town. Corner marker lights are installed but not in the pic. Will add a dual filament bulb to combine the hazard/marker/turn signal.

Ugh...that was a rough night. But hey, why not? Gotta get the good and "pliable" to make the removal easier. I swear I'm going to get a torch that works this time.
 
Lol. Was that a wood bumper? Should have stained it up real good and rocked it!!!!!
 
Haha yes it was. Might have something new for the front and rear soon. Thinking pretty heavily about an fj80 axle swap
