    New to Calgary last fall. If you are looking for a Toyota truck-only wrecker, try 4XToys by Lethbridge

    National 4x4. I know Shayne who works there, good guy. Doesn't fuck around and gives you the straight shit. However I can only speak for Shayne.

    Online. Even paying shipping from the states is often cheaper than buying local.

    I would agree with 96Taco for sure.

    However I did buy my lift from ARB Cananda and they had the best price and very good service. Everything else I have purchased through the states.

    Another option is CT4WD. They are a local Canadian club and now have a gear shop. Prices are similar to the states but you can save some on shipping, especially if they have group buys.

    Hope that helps.

    Buy from the states, get it shipped to MSO and save even more on shipping and duties.

    Course. You can be straight up and honest and you'll pay what you owe and call it a day. Or you can install on the other side of the boarder and try to skirt it through customs. A practice I do not condone.

    Yeah looked into those too, I have a buddy in Calgary with an Autoparts site, he runs replicas on his drift car, so debating ordering those, but they've discontinued our bolt pattern on the real ones, dunno if the replicas are in the same boat, if I can't get them then it'll be the Konigs.

    Does your Tacoma see offroad? I have heard bad things about counter steers getting destroyed. I love how they look, and I would consider them. But I need really strong wheels. If you're doing any serious offroad stuff you may want to go a different route.

    Id love to say Yes, but honestly, I work out on oil sites, so nothing crazy some back country dirt roads, the occasional muddy lease n choppy entry, Going back to B.C. this week and would love to do a little bit but, but Im sure it won't see much. Rreally hoping for the Volks but I guess we'll see... If not Im open to suggestions.
