The Green Reaper “Hulk” Tacoma: From Stock Tacoma to Charity Champion

Among the many impressive custom builds we’ve crafted at Southern Off-Road Specialists, one stands out as a true icon: the Green Reaper. What began as a stock 2016 Tacoma has transformed into a beast of a vehicle, known for its unique style, formidable performance, and a noble mission to support charity. The truck’s owner, known on Instagram as @thegreenreaper3, envisioned a vehicle that would not only turn heads at shows but also serve as a platform for fundraising events. Since its initial overhaul back in 2016, this Tacoma has undergone numerous revisions to become the legendary truck it is today, amassing a dedicated following of over 75k on Instagram.

The Build That Stands Out

Suspension and Performance:

  • Custom Four-Link Suspension System: Engineered for maximum articulation and durability, this system ensures the Green Reaper handles the toughest terrains with ease.
  • King Coil-Overs: These high-performance shocks deliver exceptional ride quality and control, whether on rugged trails or smooth roads.
  • Solid Axle Conversions: Upgraded for superior strength and off-road capability.
  • 54” Super Swamper Boggers: These massive tires provide unmatched traction and a commanding presence.
  • 20″ JTX Forged Wheels: Lightweight yet incredibly strong, these wheels complement the truck’s aggressive stance.
  • Twin Stick NP205 Transfer Case: Offers precise control over the power distribution for extreme off-road conditions.

Aggressive Aesthetics:

  • Fab Fours Vengeance Front and Rear Bumpers: These bumpers not only enhance the truck’s tough exterior but also provide added protection.
  • Rigid Industries Lighting: The front bumper is equipped with an array of auxiliary lights, including Rigid’s top-of-the-line options, ensuring the Green Reaper is never in the dark.
  • DB Customs Grille: Adds a bold, distinctive look to the front end.
  • N-FAB Side-Steps: Provide easy access while adding a rugged touch.
  • Fab Fours Tacoma Trail Doors: A first in the industry for the Tacoma, these doors offer an open-air experience reminiscent of Jeep models, enhancing the truck’s adventurous spirit

A Vehicle with a Purpose

The Green Reaper isn’t just about impressive specs and eye-catching aesthetics; it’s also about giving back. This truck has made significant contributions to various charitable causes. From hosting annual Christmas fundraisers benefiting Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta to participating in last year’s Project First Responders car show, the Green Reaper embodies the spirit of philanthropy and community support.

A Legacy of Impact

With its blend of high-performance modifications, bold looks, and charitable endeavors, the Green Reaper has cemented its status as one of our most renowned custom builds. It’s not just a truck; it’s a symbol of passion, creativity, and a commitment to making a difference.

For those interested in seeing this extraordinary vehicle in action and learning more about its charitable missions, the Green Reaper continues to inspire and engage through its Instagram presence and community events. At Southern Off-Road Specialists, we’re proud to have played a part in this incredible journey and look forward to more builds that make a difference.
