    What kind of trimming did you have to do for 32s to fit?

    well first off i say this with all sincerity and respect for your truck....

    lose the brush guard....

    if ur gonna strap something up front run a skid plate or a push bar... definitely not a factory one though. the total chaos one is cool because they kept the front bumper on the black one and still ran a skid plate.

    that being said i wouldnt color match the bottom part white. it just looks too cliche imo.

    i love ur tires tho, just please give me a mpg report

    check the second page on my build.

    I agree on the total chaos, They do look pretty sweet but IMO I dont like bull bar it just looks to bulky and pointless. So i think im going to end up keeping the grille guard and color match my grill and put the kc's behind them. After that I might take it off but ill have to see...
    Ill do a MPG check when i get the chance...

    Got my satoshi done. Original plans were to color match the paint but that hit some serious bumps so I plastidiped it for now. Going to add the stock toyota symbol in chrome off the old bumper this weekend I think.

    Hey man I wanted to ask you if the spacers gave you the amount of height indicated by the spacers. I also purchased the daystar 1.5 spacers and need to install them. Everyone keeps saying I wont actually get that much height that I will get 1 inch if im lucky. Is this true or did you get the full lift indicated by the spacer? I also want to buy the same size tires you have (235s) for my 5 lugger do you think I will have clearance issues without the spacers installed? I want to purchase them now but I haven't installed the spacers. Thanks man

    Hey man what I did is cut out two steel plates and drilled two holes on each side, one for the fog light to be bolted on and the other to go to my truck on one of the bolts that is located behind the grill. These plates served as extensions to properly fit the fog lights behind the grill. It requires a little work. Here are some pics

    damn haha


    i might do the light thing with mine soon :)

    for the guy with the spacer you will only get about an inch. if you have the funds look for lift spindles. best choice for lifting these trucks

    Yea man I want to go with the spindle lift but unfortunately I dont have the funds for that right now so ill go with the spacer lift temporarily. Thanks man I was wondering how much lift you would actually get since I've been hearing different things. post up some pics when your done putting on the fogs

    how does it ride? I plan on doing both too since those are pretty much my only options as far as lifting goes and I definitely want to lift it as much as possible :)

    I plan on doing the shackles in the back. The aal are also a good choice though.
