Hey Im a good sportsman.... Im even giving him a post right now. I was leading on 3 catagories: Referrals, Post, and Views. I will give him the post win, but I dont think he will beat my 6 to 1 on referrals and Im still ahead on views... Technically speaking 2 out of 3 still wins in my book.

^ That's funny. I may not have a trd exhaust to catch up but I do have the stamina. Haha! This is a long term race there buddy.

Thanks brother but in all reality a nice extang cover would finish her off nicely.

Haha. I'm liking the look as well. I wasn't sure about some of these mods but the more I see it the more I'm falling in love all over again. If only I could do something to the rear. Hmmm.

hahaha well im taking great care of it! I think everything you've done to your truck has benefited it in looks or functionality.
Whats wrong with the rear?

Something different like debadging the PreRunner, V6 and SR5 only. Maybe installing the black lip spoiler you see on X-Runners. I don't know. As of now, it looks stock in the back. Nothings engraved in stone. Just thinking.

Got the Bilsteins installed today and an alignment done all for $129 at Courtney Tire in Chula Vista. Unfortunately, they left lowered the Bilsteins from the 2.5 to I think the lowest setting because I failed to tell them to remove the spacer kit. Wow, was I greatly disappointed. However the ride was smooth as a baby's butt and I could already tell the difference. I'll probably have them remove the spacer kit tomorrow and extend the Bilsteins to the highest setting again.
In your opinion, is there a negative side to leaving the spacer kit on? Besides having an underperforming struct in the front, why should I go back if the ride quality is good? I don't know about off-roading it yet.

TRICOMA · 11-04-2009, 07:36 PM

Nice 5100s are awesome...

Youve seen the way my truck sits, and it has no spacer - just 5100's set at 2.5 and my tires are smaller at 245 75 16's. I think the spacer would be nice - but then you may have a bit of a socal lean goin on... Do you have an AAL in the rear? I forget...

AAL in the back... yes I do. It sits nice and even right now. I like the stance. Just wondering if ill keep the same ride quality.

Yes in deed tony. Did you see my truck at the tire shop? I was wondering how you could recognize me without the truck.

haha. In any event, we'll be neighbors and I'm sure I'll see you around.

it did for me. When i did my 5100s in the front we set them at 2.5 and NO AAL in the rear which was a problem (headlamps shining in people's faces!) so after the AAL it leveled it out/raised it just enough. Ride quality is either the same or better than before. (i cant say exactly considering my tires right now are SHOT.. but yeah..) I'd say go all out. I love it

Menametony · 11-04-2009, 09:37 PM

oh, i didnt know your truck was in there, wasnt really looking for it.... would you say that's a good place to get truck worked on in stuff? ive been in san diego for a week and ive been to the bar across the street to many times.. haha..what are you getting done to it?

They were the ones installing the Bilstein 5100's and doing my alignment. I've been going there ever since I started to drive. I usually go there for tire service as well even though discount might be a little bit cheaper. Courtney will match. So... back to the bar thing. Drinking at 2pm in the afternoon? NICE!

Welcome to San Diego man.

w8n4mud · 11-06-2009, 11:19 AM

Bilsteins Installed. Spacer kit removed.
To see the rest of my build, go to page #1. Thanks for looking.

unholycumulus · 11-06-2009, 11:22 AM

mmmm 5100's. Thats my exact setup. i love it. cant wait for larger tires!!

w8n4mud · 11-07-2009, 08:42 PM

My newest mod compliments of a rock at Ocotillo Wells. I think it adds some personality. What's your opinion? Haha.

Just for fun!
