    back to bone stock.
    December? maybe.

    do we have to finish it in a day? this your daily driver? i live in concord also, and i have the tools. not the spring compressor or anything. is your driveway clear?

    it really is much easier at a well stocked garage. my driveway is not suitable. too many cracks. sucks. we have done three lifts in one sucky long day. so one lift is easy.

    It's an 89 Toyota Pickup. I got some stuff done to it.. FJ axles going under it soon.
    My truck was slightly broken..and I didn't want to drive it 75 miles at 55mph..long story.

    and my girlfriend wouldn't let me take her car to head over there..even though she was going shopping in the OPPOSITE DIRECTION(Sacramento)...I was beyond pissed. :rolleyes:

    When do you recieve the kit?
    I know your doing that group buy thing.


    are the c/o's pre-assembled?
