    WOW, congrats on that purchase, thats a killer SAS. Project #1, good by body lift, that would make 35's doable...

    Welcome. Congrats on the Tacoma. I wouldn't want to drive it though. Scared about the rollover risk.

    Well guy's,i was stopped by a state trooper friday and was told that my window tint was illegal,and that i needed to drive my truck home and park it,because of the lift.He said if he seen me on the road again that he would tow my truck,well that didnt sit very well with me.So i asked him to show me exactly what the law was,and all he could find was that me headlights needed to measure 54" from the ground to the center of the headlights.And after measuring,the reading was exactly 54".He was kinda pissed.I informed him that i would be removing the body lift this weekend.He was alot more polite after seeing this.when i returned home i found out that Louisiana has no lift laws only the headlight restrictions.The body lift was removed today.So i guess we will see what happens when i run into him again.

    Wow if you wanna wheel that thing get rid of that stupid dual shock frat boy crap. It serves no purpose for a pavement pounder to have or even a trail worthy vehicle. I doubt there pot holes big enough for those shocks to absorb. I would run 37's...if he's not gunna wheel it I would lower the ride and put neon lights under it :p
