Hi All,
Been looking at the '03 Tacoma doublecabs. Any 'gotchas to look out for? Good points?
Any info really appreciated.

Gotcha!
If you're planning to get into any water over the axle, do the mod to raise the rear breather to a higher level.
The front and transfer are done.
Why did Taco miss this?
When (if) you add a rear hitch, make sure that the original bumper is set as low as possible after installation. You need the access to lower the spare tire. It's only a matter of 1/2 inch.
My only advice would be to make sure you can live with the ride. If you will be hauling passengers often, ask someone to sit in the rear during your test drive.

It's comparable to a (shudder) Ford Aerostar in the rear seat.
Rear seat ride would not be an issue. I wanted to remove the rear seat entirely to provide a place for my tools. I've overflowed my bed-mounted toolbox and now my passenger side is completely full of boxed dewalt tools. If I take a corner to fast, the tools shift dangerously....

Have you considered getting one of the PackRat truck bed "tool drawers"? You can carry up to 700# on top of one - and - still have the possibility of a 'rail' mounted type tool box as well.
Largest unit is 39"x48"x12"
Very sharp. I'll probably pick one up. Thanks!
