    05 Tacoma: 37" Tires, Method bead-locks, Long Travel, King shocks, Custom fabrication, currently swapping in a 5.7L 3URFE Tundra V8 ! 96 Tacoma: Budget Build Lots of DIY !
    I'm 41 years old. I have experience from building off road trucks to fast Hondas, drift cars, and Lowriders. I own a small used car dealership in Carlisle PA. I recently bought a rolled 05 Tacoma from an insurance auction that had a FabTech DB lift. I just exchanged the lift for long travel and I'm starting to document the build on YouTube.

    I like to fab my own parts and I have a lot of original ideas. I just made a custom high-clearance one-piece front diff bracket that incorporates a skid plate. I'm not building anything to sell - Just making videos and sharing my ideas and experience. Oh, and btw, I TRASH my vehicles. I can't have anything nice.

    I also have old school videos from early 2000's when I made the original Whiplash dvds. Has anyone here ever heard of that? Please check out my videos and subscribe to my channel!
