Jason n Koda

Loved every moment of being here.

Is the first gen Tacoma the best gen? @kodastacoma constantly making us search marketplace for a clean double cab 😍

Under the bridge. In Utah still and seeing a ton of cool places, but while I work on those images, here’s some more from my set from my day in LA with the good folks at @bradleywheels_usa @4x4engineeringservice They just posted a video and my ears are insane, but seriously go check it out, their videographer is amazing. 👏

Was able to squeeze in this little trip this weekend before life gets nuts again. Very grateful. Stoked how the rig is turning out too. Bilstein on stock springs maybe wasn’t the move, but it’ll work for now. The G3’s work incredibly well in snow and wet by the way. Very impressed. I was also lucky enough to snag a set of FN wheels right before this trip too. They have some of the most awesome and kinda sleeper wheels out there. Also I got to try this overlandish tent. Nuts. Kinda luxurious actually. Last but not least I was able to add Baja designs SAE squadrons in the stock location with a kit off a second gen Tacoma I believe. It’s been a huge help for visibility out here. All together I just want to say thank you for anyone or company that’s helped us upgrade our rig and made it more dependable and awesome or let us borrow a tent to try out. Guess what’s next? Yep. Timing belt and gasket madness on the Sequoia haha. It’s okay I’m basically a pro now. (Joke lang) Didn’t get to fish but today isn’t over yet so I hope I can throw a few casts. Best part is Koda got to run around in fresh powder. Really filled my heart to the max. He’s starting to struggle again so, f cancer… I’m appreciating the time we got. ❤️🐺

Just after these shots, i decided to completely rip my truck apart, at least the engine bay. Stay tuned, should be back up and running soon. 🐺

In between work, I’ve been tackling one of the biggest refreshes to the truck I’ve ever done. To most this is just another Monday, but the problem with my adhd and how bad I worry, I constantly have a bad case of the “while I’m in here”… It was supposed to be just the timing belt, but then that snowballed into valve covers, every hose, seal, and some. I want to do a good job so I’m constantly trying to make every seating surface perfect and make sure I replace everything while in there. Knock sensors and bypass tube included. Did I forget to mention all the wiring I pulled? Yea I’m also redoing my wiring to clean it up and fix my lights. Anyone else turn a couple hour job into a week or two? 🙃 Can’t wait to be done so we can camp already. 🐺

Quick snaps before work. These wheels are giving me old school vibes. I appreciate that it’s a 17x8 to accommodate my favorite tire size, the @nittotire 35x11.50. Pretty happy how this turned out. Now it’s time to tackle some 20k mile overdue maintenance before our big trips coming up. Never done a timing belt service before. Should be fun. 🐺

@kodastacoma 's sweet build, featuring our U65 Sprint in Raw Metal mounted on 35x11.50R17 @nittotire Ridge Grapplers. Thanks again @flex.motor_us for making us a part of your "Flex Motors Creator Series". Looking forward to seeing you all again. #welovedogs #offroadwheels #4x4offroad #forgedwheels #overlanding #osmondforged

New shoes day. 17x8, forged, lightweight, 1200kg load rating. The Osmond U65 Sprint Prototype. Matched up with 35x11.50R17 @nittotire Ridge Grapplers , chefs kiss. 👏

Well! Here she is! “Koda’s Dream Build” in the Flex Tacoma Creator series. We designed it to be functional and still fun to drive and daily. Probably the least amount of mods, but carefully selected. Not going to lie, this is exactly what I would do if we bought a 4th gen Tacoma The @gfc_usa Camper was an obvious first mod for us because of its ease of use and functionality. It transforms the Tacoma to have a space to stand up in, nap in, and use daily with full access sides. The @bajadesigns OE fit lights paired with the @4x4spod switch panel really makes seeing at night a whole lot better and when you add more electronics, it’ll be really easy to add them in to the spod switch panel. Couldn’t ask for a better combo. We added the @terraquestoffroad storage side box in the bed to have a perfect spot to sit and store gear in the GFC. There will also be the option to add the rear and other side setup. We went with @ridefoxpv Factory Race Series 3.0’s all around with Eibach pro springs in the rear to add to the fun and reliability factor of driving the vehicle on and off the road. We chose @osmondforged forged wheels in a +25 to give the perfect stance and the strongest strength to handle whatever you could throw at them. We paired the wheels with @nittotire Terra Grappler G3’s to have the best on and off road handling and give it an awesome look as well. The G3’s are 3 peak snow rated and I can’t wait to run these on my personal truck. Voting is open for this event. We’d appreciate your support! If you’re free on Sunday March 29th, come by the event to see this build and the others in person and have a chance to win some cool prizes. See y’all there!

Unbox our new wheels with us! These are the new @osmondforged U65 Sprint Forged wheels in my favorite finish. They are 17x8 and will look awesome with my 35x11.50 Nitto Tires. Pretty rare to find wheel companies that’ll also make your tires look amazing while also caring about the physical weight of the wheel or the strength. Can’t wait to see these on the truck. Can anyone guess the weight or the load rating?

Is it even a question? Yes. More cup holders. These @surfsyndicate_ arm rest cupholders work on a ton of vehicles. Even works on my Sequoia. Visit their page to find out more. Use code KODA to save a bit. Always a pleasure to support my fellow Aussies. 🤙🇦🇺
