    They do make them. It was a big EJS fad for a while. Didn't stick around long lol. I think I've only ever seen it made for Jeeps...guess it's ok for mall crawlers.

    I'm going with Demello front three hoop and Demello sliders, relentless HC rear and hopefully full skits slowly but surely.

    Can't tack down the idea for a 6" basic with king C/Os or a 3" lift with King C/Os and king resi in rear with UCAs and lockers and regear :)

    Why would you spend all that money on armor and then pretty much waste your money on a DB lift

    Go with a 3" lift. If you go 6" you're going to be paying over $1,000 just to not use everything but the drop-bracket.

    Plus imo plate bumpers and drop bracket lifts look weird.

    Just got home from the Toyota dealership. Mom was gonna trade her car in for a new MGM TRD Sport DCSB. But apparently her car was wrecked before she bought it(without her knowing) and it would basically add 8-10 grand to the truck. Looks like no new Tacoma anytime soon....

    I agree. 3 inches is a pretty safe number. Not too low, not too high. IMO 6 inch is more for streetable trucks to look good. I almost got a drop bracket but I decided they look strange too and don't seem to do much for your ground clearance.

    Yah plus the 3" has way more off road potential from what I heard :)

    6" inch drop bracket lift are just too expensive. If they just sold the drop bracket part, I would maybe consider it. I wouldn't say they're less off road capable, but it takes a lot of expensive parts to get it set up correctly.

    I wouldnt go with Relentless products personally. They look awesome but that 8+ month wait kills the deal.

    I think lockers could take me further then any 6in lift will. Plus I'd love to have air lockers and kings. Nice of the nice right there :)

    There's no question in that. It's a night and day difference with lockers. I'll forget to turn mine on sometimes and I'm like WTF then it climbs everything when I turn it on. I'm not too keen on the air lockers. They are cool but pricy and I seem to always see people brake the air lines and get screwed lol

    Air lockers are really the best option in my opinion. Especially if it's still a DD. I've heard of very few people breaking air lines. Plus it's nice to be able to use the compressor for other things.

    True, I do like the compressor. I think I'm going to get a little portable one and then maybe eventually get on mounted in the engine. I had a really random open area that would fit one haha

    Some day in the very far future I'll run an air locker in the front, and keep my e-locker until it breaks. For now I plan on just going with co2

    I can't decide if I want to SAS mine someday...that's why I'm not really thinking about getting a front locker.

    I might end up inheriting 2001 4 door Tacoma from my grandma...it's 2WD but I could DD that and then SAS mine haha

    ...or SAS the 4 door... -ponder-

    I know for a fact il never get that serious into off roading. A nice DD with a good set of MUDs and a good set of ATs would be enough for me :)

    I like to have a couple different things going at a time :)
