The spec sheet
| Truck | 2022 Toyota Tacoma |

Why it's built this way
- 3" of lift clears 33s bolt-on while keeping factory-like ride quality and CV-axle angles sane.
- A soft roll-up cover keeps recovery gear dry but rolls fully away when the bed rack and tent need clearance.
- Stock +0 wheels keep the track narrow for tight trails instead of chasing poke.
