    Here's a video of me today messing around in the Tacoma. Testing out my sliders and the yellow wire mod in 4-Lo. I noticed less wheel spin when I had 4-lo on.

    they look good,seems to be a DC/LB standard. They also help if the dumb teenage driver (was me 1984) takes an angle wrong and drops the front tire off a stump that might bend the door jamb n such.

    Yeah the sliders helped out a lot. Have you guys gotten any trail damage yet? I've just got a few pin stripes.

    Ummm... Yes. The lower part of doors and the lower corner of cab in the back (where it meets the truck bed) seem pretty susceptible to damage.
