    well I got the 5100's, rims and tires on yesterday. I set them at 1.75" and it's 1/4 inch higher in the front. We ran outta time to install the ALL and bed cover. My friend and I installed these billy's in about hour and a half with the help of a lift. I go for a alignment on tuesday. So far I love the setup. The 5100's ride way better than the stock bilsteins and the tire are fairly quiet. I've had race tires that were louder so it all good. I snapped a few quick pics yesterday with my cell phone but I'll get better ones today after my grill gets painted.

    Nice work! It'll look great once you black out that grill. Are you going to satoshi it before you paint it? Would make sense.

    Painted grill and installed the bed cover. I was goin to black out the toyota emblem too but as I was scuffing it up it started to look like brushed aluminum so I just kept it like that. The cover fits and looks awesome. So far I'm very pleased with how the truck is coming along. There's still afew thing that need to be installed. 1.5" AAL, pop a lock, tint, paint the rear bumper, backup camera and steering wheel control interface for the HU.

    Thanks man!
    The ccd works great. Wipe off the dust with it first then hit it up with the mist n wipe. I also wax it once a week with CW4 spray wax. Keeps it looking like black glass.

    Looks great man. I kinda did the same thing with my truck. Modded within a short period of time. One day i'm going to buy a set of those wheels. Judging by your daily driver I can see why you chose those wheels. TE-37 nostalgia. Such a timeless/tasteful wheel design.

    Nice GVR4 too! A friend of mine/old roomate has a '91. He's 1439/2000

    Here's a link to his GVR4 http://www.galantvr4.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Board=UBB10&Number=238729&page=2&fpart=1

    The pics of it dusty was on fairly level ground. It depends on the truck. I went back and forth too before my install but, the deciding factor was, I wasn't replacing the stock UCAs with LR UCAs yet so I went with the conservitive setting. There's slight floating even set at 1.75" doin about 70mph so I'd say if you're goin 2.5", get UCA's.

    Nah sorry, I'm keepin them.
