I had this same thought. Just get a 2" lift and don't put the back in, it'll give a better ride, and although it's a bit more expensive, it could save somebody's life. I had this exact thing happen on my bronco and it could've been way worse than it was. Shits not a joke lol cheap out on the steps if you want, but cheaping out on suspension/steering/drive train etc can be deadly, and not just to the person(s) in the truck. When my shock snapped, it almost sent me into oncoming traffic.
@@connorhart7597 just got a 2006 Toyota Tacoma base 4x2 Access cab, 4 cylinder and 5 lug. Will a 3inch spacer be dangerous? I only use it as a Daily driver not for off-roading or anything.
@@EscapeTheMatrix6977 probably not dangerous enough to recommend not buying it, but if you lift with suspension you also get the byproduct of a nicer ride and whatnot. Shouldn't be a huge issue though if it's just a daily driver
@EscapeTheMatrix6977 as long as you know how much extra travel your shock has at bump stop, you can fit spacers at or below that extra travel. 3 inches is A LOT. Probably most of your up travel is taken away there.

I've got a whole bunch of accessories to my Toyota Tacoma 2012 ditch lights roof rack bed rack with tent aftermarket bumpers winch kit and a couple of light bars. The truck is looking pretty decent I'm getting a lot of double takes.
Wow, perfect.... just what I've been wanting to start at modifying. Hope to see more for 2nd Gen. I'm running 285 80R17. Doesn't rub ... comes close and do 4 wheel.
Hi Willis: I too upgraded my tires to 285/80R/18. I have the limited edition so that comes 18” stock rims: chrome plate. KO2s babee!!! They don’t rub either.

Had level kit on my '13 for five years, finally ditched it for real struts - what a world of difference. Never been a fan of tonneau covers, doesn't provide security as a camper does so why mess with an accessory that creates hassle and inconvenience of loading/unloading. Those lights...hmm, it's a Toyota and why make it look like a GMC?? OEM headlights reigns superior in performance/value. Those aftermarket wheels are okay, but do hold on to the original wheels, it's worth a lot more at resale. Step bars are okay but Ithink the cost outweighs the benefits, unless you are handicapped and depend on it to get up onto the truck, it's just a show piece - lugging around extra 150+ pounds (and cost to acquire/install) isn't feasible. Just my opinion, you asked, I gave. God bless.
Hey Sara🤓I’m excited to to purchase today, a 07 Tacoma and your vid comes in handy for timely upgrades. Thanks for pointing out the obvious and it gives me some great ideas.
Actually she is correct. The person wanting to get in is taking a higher risk because they dont know what is in there. People usually steal when they see something they want. This cover helps believe it or not.
This is the reason that my first mod on my 2015 was to install a Pop & Lock lockable tailgate handle; the very first mod was to throw a hose clamp onto the tailgate hinge to discourage tailgate thieves until I got the Pop & Lock.
Do not buy those headlights they are complete garbage. When I bought them I thought there was something wrong with the bulb but it was just the headlights I would go as far to say that they are down right dangerous because they don’t light up anything on the road.
You can tell people in the comments are suburban dads lol.... worrying about a spacer lift. Of coarse its not the best just dont beat on it, if you are you should have got a actual lift like a smart person.

Strut spacers are very dangerous. Don't do spacer lifts. Ur stock strut will snap in half at the bottom. It's very common for the tacomas look it up.

Agree. Use a Bilstein 5100 kit to safely lift about 1.5 inches.
You should do top five mods for access cabs!!
That's easy. Mods 1-5 don't have an access cab!!
Yesss

Another Mod you should add would be replacing all the bulbs with LED and spraying undercoat to protect truck.
Undercoating is absolutely a good investment! -Zach

Will silicone need to be added onto the headlights to prevent water leaking into them?
Is taking the lift off specs safe? Was told by mechanic, keep lift to specs
That’s a tough looking Tacoma! Great choices on the first 5 mods!

Is this for the 2wd versions as well
Technically she is wrong about the tonneau cover. The tailgate does not lock so anyone can get in the bed of the truck if they wanted to.
kinda crazy they dont have a lock

Are those new headlights bright
Hey Sara is this a 4 x 2 or 4x4..am wondering if lifting the 2wd is a good idea..any thought please
Our 2013 seen here is a 4x4! Lifting a 2WD is totally up to you and how you want your truck to look! -Zach
Does 05 Tacoma have ball joint problems like 04 ? Am planning to buy one of this
Seems like a 265 75 would have been a better choice. Bigger than a 31 but not a 33. Nice middle ground. Good looking truck though.

I wish you would added a total cost at the end
I would like to find a Toyota Tacoma 4X4 Longbed truck that has a 5 or 6 speed manual transmission in it. I don't know if the truck is still made?
Definitely still out there! You'll just really have to look since automatic transmissions are so popular today. -Zach
