Thanks for the invite! Hope you are all well, we have no covid in the family but tons of huge changes... now working construction due to all of the covid shutdowns. Am still in Roanoke & plan on making rally point & catch up.
For future modding, there's LOTS of space behind the side panels in the cargo area. I had 8" subs in mine on plywood panels with auto carpet covering the wood. If I still had it I would build some storage bins. At least it makes a great out of the way install for electronics (inverter, extra...
Just a thought - if you want to go for a diesel build, Thermo King refrigerated truck trailers ran an Isuzu 4 cyl. diesel, don't know if it was the same engine Isuzu used overseas. The GM 6 should be a much simpler swap and parts are not an issue - although never seen one.
And there's room for a cushion for the dog to ride on too! I don't have as much space, but am thinking of a console made from a steel tool box since I have several extras.
So my '99 4x4 Taco is all stock, been using it that way for the past 2 years. Only problem really is sagging rear suspension. Will fix that this spring with some aftermarket upgrades. I"m also going to stick with the stock 15" wheels! This vehicle has met my needs for camping, fire roads, &...

Like the 270 awning designs that are available now. Saw a lot of them at the RTT rally. Looking to upgrade my camper shell for a little more height and flat roof for a rack, then add a 270 to cook in and hang out if weather is bad. I have a platform/drawer system in the bed that is working...
Want to see what you end up with, I'm still all '99 factory (cassette/radio)! Time to upgrade at least to a bluetooth unit so I can take calls while driving. The ability to have built in nav is very appealing.
THANKS, Just got this, have guests from out of town. Questions: Is the time correct? 12:30 AM? If I leave right now, I might be there on time.
Difficulty: very hard - don't know that my stock Taco is up for that?
Thanks, Steve
