I installed these same front springs last night. Overall, very impressed after initial driving. I still have about a 0.5" rake with all-stock rear suspension.
The install was a bit more challenging than anticipated but we got it done.
A recent episode (25:20 mark) of Expedition Overland highlights using the spare tire cavity for what appear to be two 6-gallon fuel cells. I had done a quick search at the time and located the fuel cells from Trailed.
I will likely be doing this at some point for longer overland trips as insurance.
Very interesting. This may be exactly what I am looking for. I'm in roughly the same boat you were in - installed approximately 300lbs of steel between rock sliders and skid plates, so I'm looking to stiffen up primarily the front suspension; I can feel it compresses easier than I'd like.

Are the genuine Toyota front tow hooks rated for higher load limits than the stock 2024 tow hooks that come on the truck? My understanding is the stock tow hooks on the Tacoma are not rated for recovery.
I have the full body steel skid plates from RCI. At the time of receipt, I wished I had gone with aluminum - they are heavy. However, I found myself in an unexpected situation shortly after and the skid plates took a few good hits...I'm glad I went with steel.
After a significant amount of research, I purchased a DoDrop ALPHA from Oregon Trail'R last month. I needed something small enough to fit in my garage next to the Tacoma while still allowing other storage room.
I plan to use it for up to multi-week trips around the western US while working...
Are you able to do this for the radar cruise control too? The parking sensor one in my video was a newer one - I usually get radar cruise control not available from snow.
Is there any way to mute these sort of alerts? Driving in the snow - which is a frequent occurrence for 4-5 months out of the year for some of us - results in these nonstop alerts whenever more than two snowflakes accumulate on the various sensors.
Hitting the “back” button the steering wheel...
I wash the truck whenever it gets into the high 30s or low 40s during winter, which is rare for a 2-4 month span. Just managed to do it last week and reapplied Griots ceramic wax to the truck.
I'm sure the neighbors get a laugh when they see me outside washing the truck with a puffy jacket and...
I tested the truck connector and it is outputting correctly
Tested the 7-pin port on the truck and I am getting power, so I am 99% sure it has something to do with the trailer and not the truck.
Just picked up a new teardrop trailer and the in-line charging is not working. Forgive me for the newbie question but the Tacoma supports this via its 7-way trailer plug, correct? All charts indicate the charging wire is the one immediately clockwise from the notch in the connector.
Just trying...
Ouch, is that confirmed? I've seen various posts stating it ranges from $99/year to a one-time $99 fee. About halfway through my trial and I'm finding I use it enough to possibly consider $99/year, but $15/month seems a bit ridiculous.
