This time series was really helpful . I was here for suspensions but it's all new underneath . 🙏 U got real knowledge . Very few have.
Just put a procharger kit on it
No offense at all, Greg, but don’t you make a sh*t load of parts for jeeps too? As a Jeep owner, with 13 built for street (a slammed JT, JTR, JLR, CJ5/7/8 and JKR, to name a few), also built a few Tacos incl a 550whp XRunner, TRD Pro and Classic 86 BTTF tribute with modern KCs, bullet hole wheels and 37s lift 6”, im about to sell my 475hp/521tq 2.0L turbo (Garrett G25-550 turbo) JLR to go back to a 2024 TRD Pro Off Road… any advice?
It's cool, but that cost way more and had /needed way more parts, fab, work done to be a "jeep killer" and it's still a v6 .. would much rather have the v8 jeep wrangler, gladiator or even cherokee fully built up. And over a jeep I'd prefer a raptor r , ranger raptor or the bronco raptor with very few actual modifications needed to jump, off-road, rock crawl, sand dune, Baja race/drive fast in the desert, mudding and still be able to drive daily, tow my dirtbikes, quads, Harley or Ducati, snowmobiles ect .. still use for hunting/camping in back country/mountains ect for days and have room for everything I need and so on. This is just a Tacoma body on a fully completely custom everything else as cool as it is
Came for the Tacoma. Stayed for this guy's knowledge and passion.
Genuinely.
🤣😂😂😂😂
I would drop everything and move to work for a man like that.
Yep, imma try to do this to my Tacoma
@@Numberjack95 yes, same, fuckin absolutely. I don't care if its minimum wage or anything bruv, im in
This dude talking, needs his own channel. That passion, that ❤️, is all of us!
Yes, just let him talk. His passion and knowledge is impressive
Greg is literally the epitome of “do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life” 🔥🤘🏾
For reals!
I enjoyed listening to this dude talk about the truck more than seeing the actual truck… his love and passion is insane
I would get the doors if they could be swapped reasonably easy. I’ve had jeeps and loved that option but can’t run them exclusively on my truck. Make them and we will come!
This dude is cool as shit, he don’t back down from nothing and challenges the Tacoma community for feedback. I’m not in that community currently but planning a build. I will buy products from this company. When an owner is so committed to his company/employees/products, that’s a game changer.
You said it... COMMITMENT
Really appreciate the honesty of this guy. There's so much that went into this build, and it's pretty obvious that everything they did was waay over the top. And as anyone would be, he is proud to talk about what make this Taco extra special, but he also points out the negatives that come with some of these mods. There's no over-sell in his pitch ... Gotta admire and respect that.
Didn’t think I was gonna watch the whole video but this dude is very passionate about what he does which made it all the more interesting!
This guy needs his own show. He’s so fun to watch.
Make them doors for 2nd gens also
Yes!! I'd totally watch it! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Justin Garnick agree
Agreed!!!
Yes!!!
This guy should have his own TV show. Not only the trucks but the enthusiasm, passion and animated personality would make the show a hit.
The way he talks! Dude is down to earth! Keep up the good work!
It only costs 100,000 dollars to make a Tacoma into a Jeep killer lmao
And still worth every penny
That’s what you got from this video? lol
All the work that has to be done to a Toyota just to be a jeep killer 🤣
It will last way longer that a jeep and will probably not break down as much. I know Toyotas start every time. Can’t say that about a jeep. Lol
I could have got a jeep. I wanted something reliable so I got a Tacoma.
If men can become women, I guess Toyotas can become jeeps.
😂.
I dont even need anything, but this guy makes me wanna buy fab fours stuff
The way he describes the joy of rock crawling at the end, is perfect.
I’m a Rubicon owner, and this guy is an awesome source of crawl engineering wisdom.
I want to do this to my TRD PRO Tundra 2019! The doors bumbers everything
As a jeep owner with tube doors, I can vouch for the fact that driving will never feel the same ever again after you feel that freedom!
This guy is awesome, he is the definition of knowledgeable, 50 min gone fast
If this is being labelled as the "baddest" Tacoma on the planet, then you really need to expand your horizons and check what is being done outside the US and Canada. The modified SUV and truck community here in Iceland is really getting very big. We have a Tacoma 2006 model, started off with a small modification for 38" tires and no lift. Now we run 44" tires and only needed a body lift of less than 2" and we cut into the wheel welds and modified our fenders. Our rear drive comes from a Land Cruiser 60 for added strength. And we still run the IFS, but we have beefed that up somewhat. We have all the travel we need because of the added space inside the wheel welds. Admittedly we do not need as much travel as some in rock crawling do but we have plenty as we do snow wheeling. We have two transfer cases for low-low gear ratios. We crawl when we need to. Our suspension is Fox coilovers in the front with a reservoir and Fox bypass in the rear, also with a reservoir built into a 4 link air ride.
Last time I checked a Tacoma with a similar build holds the land speed record to the South Pole which was built and designed here in Iceland.
Can you suggest a RUclips or website to see these trucks?
Love this TACO and this need to be made available - great Job amazing. I have had to watch this many times and never gets old 🇺🇸👍🏽
Step one to make a "Jeep Killer" make it like a Jeep. Straight axles and take off the doors lmao. I'm just joking, love this tacoma build, it'd go anywhere, and the manual is the cherry on top. Coming from a TJ owner.
This is one of the most important Tacoma builds ever. So many ideas were brought to this build it’s going to change Tacoma’s forever
I agree
Absolutely, just watching this for the first time and my head is spinning
I love the passion this guy has. You can tell he loves what he does and is extremely intelligent and hard-working.
This guy and his shop is amazing! Literally made me stay because of his passion and knowledge.
Those tires are incredible! Beautiful design ,and thought put into the the entire project! You are "The Master" Bowing over and over ...lol
You can’t beat this period. Best taco I’ve ever seen hands down. Everything about this build I love. Would 100% buy those doors! Hell yeah!
cory mitchell we appreciate the feedback!
Clicked on it for thumbnail stayed for the build... love it.. nvr owned a taco but definitely want this build...
One year later. Jeep owner here, not hating at all on the Tacoma; in fact, absolutely loving what this guy and his team have done to get the SLOTH where is at. Awesome work, y'all!!! If I may, and you probably have this tube doors in production already, but at 45:35 you asked for a goal... to make an easy transition from factory doors to FF doors, build a quick-release hinge that replaces the stock hinge on the doors and body and include an extra set to replace the part that stays on the stock doors; the FF doors would already have that part on them.
Greg, I can feel your passion through my monitor brother!!!!
thank you, we need more people like you,cheers up brother!!
This truck is beast. It looks like it’s ready to go to war
More like ready to go to the mall
lol no
It actually did. Right after the build it got painted black and shipped to iraq
It does. Paint it green and it resembles our HMMWVs with no/canvas doors or armor from Iraq 2003! Awesome! (sad)... Truck is badass though.
Thomas Edwards you must own a Jeep....
The visuals on this thing are absolute insanity!
From the custom pipe doors and sloth decal, down to the backlit fog lights 🙌🏻🙌🏻
I love the taco, but I myself am not among the elite, super-skilled gear heads so a quick swap feature option gets my vote 🙏🏻 an excellent interview.. thanks for putting it out there into the stratosphere!
I love Greg's honesty and love for what he does. That explains a lot about why Fab Fours is such a great company. It all makes sense now.
he is so passionate about what he does its honestly inspiring!
That’s prolly the sickest Tacoma for sure.
Sir - Is this - Ive been seeing - Really a NEW pop thing ? To misSpell Probably as Prolly ? Or is it suggested 2 be cool ? I am just mid 40's likely out of touch man here
The word prolly still exists? I stop using that word a long time ago
No cage. Leaf sprung rear. Transfer case setup is mehhhh. Go hit a trail and you'll see sicker ones
I've seen better
D-Base Rox It’s to sound cool. It’s like cool people slang bruh. 😂
I think the doors would look sweet on a 4runner. Awesome build.
They need to do a 4 runner build
Yes!! Totally agree 💯 I'm yet to see a build of this quality of a 2018+ 4 runner build!
Absolutely! I have a 4th gen 4runner that I love to death
That comment on the end about one lug at a time is truly what it’s about!! Crawling over what the next is spinning or bumping over!!!! That’s when you know your shit is RIGHT AND TIGHT!
Hell yeah 💪
I remember when Fab Fours first started in Durango Co. I was one of their first customers and all I bought was a hitch and ball. It's really cool to see where they went even though they left Durango. Good on you
Doors look awesome! Love the leds in them, makes for a very subtle but noticeable difference!
Love everything about this build!
“What about the safety sense in the grill, does that work?” “What’s it suppose to do?” 😂😂😂
Was never really a Taco fan till I watched this. Bad ass build
🔥🔥
Honesty tho love everything about this truck! This is one beast! I'm interested in the sliders and also of course the doors! Glad to see he is in SC! I'll be hitting them up soon! Thanks TacomaBeast for the vid! Thanks FabFour for building a rig that we can go say hold up yeah we do have a Tacoma in the gang that does have that! Hope to see y'all soon!
Absolutely amazing build love the tube door 🤘🏻
I did not expect to watch this whole video, but I couldn't help it. I love Yota's and even though this thing is pretty insane, it's just too cool.
Same
"I love the fact that it cost 40k for a loaded one". Wish I could say that too.
And then change 90% of it lol
I owe 25k $ on a TRD long bed sport it was cheap in 2019 for 33k$ 36k $ brand new in 2019 not they are worth 40k and up crazy
@@neftalireyes4517 never finance, alway pay cash, if you can’t pay cash, that Means you cannot afford it, if you could afford it, you would pay cash, check out Dave Ramsey, his financial teachings changed my life
@@titirititiri6360 the american dollar was built to be used as debt when they took us off gold standard so no financing isnt bad in any sense it makes most things affordable to those who are in working class.
Outstanding! Exactly the type of company leadership everyone wants to work with and for...
Amazing interview, love the passion in Greg's brand. I'll be shopping Fab Fours for my F150. Thanks.
I think this might be the best truck ever built in the history of mankind. I would pay $90K for this truck. I absolutely love it!!!
Wow! Amazing job! I love Tacoma. I never seen any like yours. Awesome.
I really love the doors man I would like to have half a door with the door arm
Won’t mud and dirt get in the cab with those doors though?
@@Reagan-yb9de yes but there floormats that be removed n wash
@@andyavila3027 Yes but still offroad = mud = dirt = water = rust...
"You can put something sweet in a taco". Hehehe 😄
Spewing confidence in the most Humble way this dude is awesome
he was super cool!
WOW! That's sharp. Greg's passion is incredible.
The doors are bad ass! Would definitely get a set if they came out for the 2nd gens!
Yeah the seeming lack of support for gen2's now is disappointing to say the least
I’m a huge taco fan, and this build by far is amazing. I wish I had X amount of money to through at FAB 4 to build a mirror of the SLoTH for me. This is an awesome eye catcher that works. Those tube doors are awesome and breathtaking and I wouldn’t change a thing. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽❤️💛❤️💛❤️💛❤️
Like Britney Spears says bro "then get to work BITCH" 🤣
Man that's a good looking Yota.
A car you want to buy more than a jeep! Thank you for sharing a great video. You will be an angel. You whispered to me to change the car! 😂😂😂😂😂😂🤗👍
That Tacoma is badass! I love the tube doors
Why are they called "tube" doors?
They dont look like they're made out of tubes and or tubing.... They look super slick tho!!!
I’m interested in the fenders! Plz make them available
This truck is absolutely 💯 % to die for!!!!
I'm a Toyota enthusiast from the core and I'm here to say thats absolutely the coolest/jaw dropping'est truck I've ever seen. Now let's see what ya can do with the 4 runner old and new lol
I like his passion, you can tell he really loves what he does.
I love the doors! The 15 minute timeline would be perfect, and the only thing I would like, having not been inside, is to be able to hang my foot out the side like a Jeep, just for added free-ness.
I want these doors!! Black on black would look sick!
That Tacoma is OFF THE CHARTS. Love everything about it. Well made video.
I love those doors! I can sleep straight at the back seat!
Love the doors I would buy them right now... for 2nd gen
That is the coolest vehicle ever I have a 07 Toyota fj cruiser with a 3" lift
That is the coolest comment ever I made a comment earlier with a 3" lift
This guy is amazing the truck is killer as a Tacoma 2nd gen owner I will never own another truck ever again in my life there is nothing like owning a tacoma they are dollar for dollar worth every damn penny I love papa smurf my taco, its 3 inch lift on eibach lift and 35 12.50 17s and have many more things being done I do all my own work it's my passion my truck is part of me
damn straight bro! its all about the taco! 😎🔥
That’s freaking amazing luv the looks all around. ALOHA
so having a 2019 taco and looking at what to change as well as what can be changed - never did I imagine swapping doors. If we can get them to a quick swap (and to me that is 30 minutes) that would be awesome.
My only "issue" is the aesthetics and how the doors are angular and not following the lines from the front fender and the bed line. me personally, I would like to see the doors a little higher up for the top of the tube doors to line up with the bed line right above the "sloths back".
but this really opens my eyes to what can be done - just have to find the budget to make it happen.
Door height is based on arm on door during cruising. Too high and arm on door wont be comfortable. U want form or function? Owner choose function, your thumbs up show form. There is no right answer.
You'd have to install bars to strengthen the door joints. That car was not meant to ride without doors, so it compromises the body structure. Not to mention that if you were tboned your almost certainly die. Not a good idea
@@argon7479 Ok Karen...
-First; it's not a car.
-Second; How do you know you'd have to strengthen the door joints? Or are you just speculating? Exactly how much does it compromise the body structure? Perhaps it does a little bit but what's the worry? Are you afraid all the gaps between body panels won't be 100% perfect all the time? This truck was built for extreme off-road conditions and the frame will be twisted and contorted in every which way when on rocks or a crazy trail and it will be fine. Are you concerned that a body panel or two may not perfectly line up? Oh no!
-Third; Considering that this truck and most others that might have these doors will be lifted vehicles, therefore if you were t-boned most cars would slide underneath it upon impact. Unless it's a semi truck and in that case you are toast no matter what. Plus it's the door jams themselves that would protect you in that case not just the thin doors... "not to mention" that his tube doors look more structurally sound and stronger than the light stock versions. I mean, come on man... this guys company makes BUMPERS professionally for heck sake.
@@zachhartson4819 I know because I've literally bent somebody's frame while they had the door open on their car, when it was fine riding for 19 hours with the door shut. Unibody frames require the doors to not bend, and when you have a car you are using the crawl over rocks, you're going to bend the frame. Most cars wouldn't slide under. They'd hit the bottom of the door frame, which now that there's no door, is going to bend straight upwards and severely injure, if not kill you. Car doors are designed to crunch and absorb impact, plus keep the person safe with soft plastic and airbags. This will just mean glass and metal shards shooting into the car. Look up Jeep impacts without doors. Those cars are actually designed to be stable with no doors, but crashes demolish them with no doors
@@argon7479 If that's the case, then it seems as though this guy didn't do his homework. Although being in the off road scene as he is, you would think this guy should know some of these things that you are talking about. So what you are saying is that this truck without its full sized doors on it AND closed, it will get structurally damaged once it's been driven off road? Considering he upgrades and builds many types of 4x4 trucks for a living, one might think that's something he would know about, that's all.
I am a Ram guy. But that is one sick ass Tacoma! Much respect good sir!
This thing looks over the top crazy awesome! I would love to have one!
I NEED those fender "flares". Best looking ones I've ever seen
This is incredible how knowledgeable he is about tacos, I bought a 2017 Tacoma with out knowing anything about it,man I love it, now that I see all these incredible stuff to upgrade, I can’t wait for this Covid 19 BS to end so I can go back to work start saving $$ to start upgrading my Taco.. will definitely keep you guys in mind..
What covid? It surely didn't look like we have a pandemic if you look at those protesters, they not wearing masks , standing shoulder to shoulder, screaming, yelling with spits and viruses coming out of their mouths . How is that ok ? While we can't even have graduation ceremonies or having church services
When the Tesla Cyber truck comes out and the GMC hummer EV come out, you should trick them both out! Highest models
Sickest taco in the game. Love the creative unique designs put into this beast. Wish we'd see this kind of unique engineering and design with other popular companies.
This amazing man should do a lecture series.... on life!
Hell yeah, I'll take some of this hinges that let me (easily) take off my factory doors off in 15-20mins, i dont care for the tube doors, but if I could just take my factory doors off for a day of wheeling, and back on once I'm home, that would be absolutely killer.
just 4 bolts to take both doors off in my tj. really the only hard part you have to do for a truck is wire up plugs for the wiring then you can have the door off in 2 minutes with a floor jack and an impact
Great attitude and approach to things! You rock!
I love how happy he is . Thats motivation
I’ll give anything to have that truck. and I’ll take it like it is.. that’s the most boss truck I have ever seen..our they On the market yet..
Yeah but would you wheel it or you would use it as a mall crawler?
If i can have those doors. Id totally be all in and welcomed to have two sets of doors. As long as i can swap then with ease. IM GAME! also this is the baddest tacoma hands down
I would absolutely do the tube doors if they were the same as a Jeep. I have a JKU and love how easy it is to remove and put the doors back on. I also have a 2021 Taco in Army green, that I would love to do this to.
This was insanely interesting, I usually do stick around for a full 50min vid. Good job. This guy needs to be interviewed and in videos more like others said
Love the doors!!!
Sickest Tacoma I've ever seen! And I have 1st gen...
Awesome build! That guy is living his dream which is amazing! Would love the Tacoma Fenders!
if im ever in the US and going to build a Tacoma it will be at this workshop for sure .. this is totally amazing
I would do that if install was quick and easy. So I could use em for the day or weekend only.
Quick and easy.. lol the suspension alone took a few weeks I’m sure
Yeah, I'm willing to bet, the only feature quick and easy, is fueling it up at the gas station.... sick ride tho!
Too too many mods to list!!!
Great video. My only suggestion would be to mic up the interviewer. Or have the interviewee repeat the question in his answer. Other than that the quality is good and b-roll is solid.
Awesome truck & presentation! 👍I wouldn't change a thing. It's unique, fun & looks super cool!
Love that dialogue. With anything and everything you do.
Any Toyota is automatically a jeep killer when it comes to reliability
For sure. All he had to do was throw 30k at it to make it a jeep killer! 👍
Toyota is garbage..my jeep would eat that for lunch.
Boomer Sooner 😂 Jeep owners are such pussies. Probably one of the least reliable vehicles on the road
Boomer Sooner doood Toyota would go right over your jeep and leave you for scraps
@@beastlydonetmo9894 you probably drive a Prius dont you..
I would love those doors as long as I could swap doors in a reasonable time
Fuuuuuck, love everything about this. Dood is legit, oozes passion for what he’s doing.
Tube Doors are awesome! Remove the carpet during the rainy season and water proof seat cover and towels
that sounds like a great idea!
If you want to go into the jungle off roading, take a Land Rover or a Jeep.
*BUT IF YOU WANT TO MAKE IT BACK OUT*
*TAKE A TOYOTA*
If you wanna put your neighbor outta of job keep buying and suppporting foreign.
@@garyc765 my Neighbor is broke cuz he goes through 5 Chevys and 3 fords and 10 dodges while I'm beginning to break in my toyota at 200.000 miles 😎
@@hfcxhf3 Nice counter.
amen brother
@@adonisg667 facts are the best counter lol
An extended cab version of these doors would be nice 😅 for a friend of mine
I wish he made videos of this truck off-roading it'd be awesome!
This is the coolest truck I’ve ever seen and I’ve been a Toyota guy my whole life........... love love love the tube doors!! I have been waiting for years for somebody to make tube doors for Toyotas! I even bought a Jeep once just so I could drive around with no doors or top! But I still have always been a Toyota guy so I had to sell the jeep and get another Tacoma!
