Yeah, hopefully we can meet sometime later this year. We can continue conversation of line as I have your email from previous discussions. Just FYI my Dobinson's 21 & 22s just arrived today after four month backorder so our truck will soon be aligned on springs.

Hello Bill, So you decided to stay with 33" tires rather jump to 34" with the 285/75/17? What are you running C or E rated version? Tires are on my list to address this summer. Trying to decide if I should stick with stock TH wheels and increase tire width and size or go the Method 703...

I wish I had seen this thread last summer when I received and installed my Mountain Hatch table. I have never been happy with the way it fit and had the gaps you illustrate as well as a large gap between the tailgate and bed. There was absolutely nothing to indicate that it should be installed...

I sold mine to a guy who installed it on his brand new white Tacoma in my driveway. I can't recall the exact trim level, but it wasn't an SR5.

Have you had any issue with excessive lift in the rear when not towing? Did you add adjustable sway bar links with the rear springs?

I just spoke with Dobinson's on using 820s in the front and 821V in the rear. My truck has sagged at least an inch in the rear. They suggested that I may need the SE59-591 adjustable sway bar links depending on the lift height with the static load. My challenge is when I need the lift I will...

I had to satisfy my curiosity because I was thinking that the Trailhunter mpg was not significantly different from my 2000 Tundra extended cab with a 4.7l liter V8 that I had taken on previous trips. They only significant mod to this truck is the addition of a Leer fiberglass cap. Payload...

Prices weren't bad in the Midwest, but not that low. Worst was $4.70 in WA just east of the North Cascades. The entire trip cost $1454 in gas.

I carried a 5 gallon Midwest jerry can and a 3 gallon Rotopax. I added the 5 gallon on the White Rim but could have made it off without it. I had time at the campsite and since I was starting back the day I left the rim I wanted to get rid of the weight plus make it a to Grand Junction before...

I recently completed a trip from East TN to WA and points in between. The trip covered 7675 miles over varied terrain and driving conditions including 200+ miles of off road driving some in 4WH and 4WL. The trip began with roughly 2300 miles on my Trailhunter and finished just shy of 10k. I...

I quoted someone else in this thread but it did not capture it. I have spoken with some that get the projected mileage but not with a TH. I gather the estimate was applied across Tacoma versions and really does not apply to the TH.

I installed the OEM front and side Molle panels on my 2025 6' bed Trailhunter before adding and Alu-Cab canopy top. They utilize the screws in the bed rails for installation and slide underneath so I'm not sure why they would interfere with your tri-fold. Each panel also requires you to drill...

There is no way that Toyota is unaware how poorly these vehicles are performing, yet they put a tag on the window claiming 22-24 mpg. I believe a class-action suit regarding this crap would be appropriate. I totally agree. I have a 2025 Trailhunter 6" bed with factory roof rack. Before I...
