HELP WITH WIFE

To layman's eyes, would she even notice a leveled truck? Should have told her the truck needed new shocks instead of mentioning the 'lift'.

 

Its easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask permission

I told my wife I am buying lift kit for my Taco. I told her she can be upset about it and mope about it or accept it. Since my wife is awesome and understanding she just said "ok honey"

 

If that doesn't work try re-flashing her ECU. There was a TSB for "nagging wife who bitches about modding your truck".

 

Its been said but I'll say it again

Women...

 

Seems like although all the above is mostly true, Especially the sammich part, this may be a just a big misunderstanding, care of her lovely friends.
so....
'Splain her this:

Chevy doesn't = Toyota.
6" lift on chevy doesn't = 5100s on taco.
5100s dont = this >



Unless maybe, your toy looks like this

You could always meet up with a few Tacoma guys and gals in Calgary, there are a few of us floating around in Calgary http://www.ct4wd.com

You could just happen to end up at a location with lots of Tacomas and be like, "Wow honey, look at all those trucks, I wonder what those guys have done?" And she could see first hand that a 3" lift only makes the trucks look better

 

so the front is drooping?

 

order the parts and have them sent to your local shop. then tell her you are going out to get an oil change and "voila" you have a level truck my friend. assuming you are only raising it 0.85 or 1.75 she probably won't even notice.

 

lol I dont know what to tell you man, I have broken in my fiance from the get go. and now she not only expects it, but she is supportive of my hobbies, and now she gets involved in them once in a while... but not to often, its a great dynamic

sucks for you!! my wife bought my truck new mud tires and wheels cause she said it would look better !!!

 

wow, that guy needs to calm waaaaay down

 

My wife hasn't noticed my 2.5" Billy/Eibach lift nor has mentioned anything about my N-Fab light bar up front. She did notice the sliders, weathertech mats and I'm sure she'll see the Lightforce lights when I get them (on order).

The AAL goes on this week, I'm sure she'll miss that as well.

I sure do Love my wife!!

 

I can't say enough good about putting 5100's on my Double-Cab 4X4 Sport short-bed. I can't imagine the ride and handling being any better.

 

Just explain to her that pickup trucks have a rake to the front, so they look level when towing. Maybe that will help?? No? OK I out.... JOE>

 

Just remind her she really DOESN"T NEED 300 pair of shoes.
Then go get your lift!
