    JD,
    I don't have any pics or the results of the ramp contest, but I have the results of the mods:

    I did 2 installs of Bilstein 5100's (my Taco and Blakes "Scarab21" Taco). I also installed a set of 3" spacers on Jose's (Rizzz818) Taco. Mike from All Pro was invaluable with his expertise and he worked the spring compressor.

    Sarah,

    Thanks to you and everyone at All Pro Off Road for your wonderful hospitality and use of your facilities. And thanks for the pictures as well. I had a great time helping others to get their Tacos in the air. I also personally want to thank Mike from All Pro Off Road for his expertise and working the spring compressor all day. I couldn't have done it without him.

    I'm really looking forward to your next mod day. Any other SoCal Taco owners who want to get their front ends lifted, contact All Pro Off Road. I'll be happy to help out with installation again the next time All Pro has a mod day.

    Jon

    ^ Thanks Sarah & All-Pro for hosting this & it looked awesome.

    I didn't plan or mean to bail on this Meet as I set it up. Thats a D-Bag move on my part. However, I went out of town for my girls B-Day. I thought I could've made it back in time.

    Wished I was able to go. I wanted to see that Rad Red LT Taco! :mad:

    Thanks Sarah, I had a good time and I'm glad you guys had the black boots for the tie rods. Thanks Mike for your help. I learned a lot as well. Changing the brake pads on the lift was a million times quicker and easier than doing it with the truck on a jack.

    After I left I went to calico and hauled ass around the fireroads there to get a feel for the LT at speed. I was doing 65+ MPH on the straights and catching mild air (6'' or less, both wheels airborne). I love that feeling when you see a bump or dip approaching and you know the smoothest solution is to give it more gas! The truck handled very well.

    I had a dash cam rolling but the video didn't work when I synced it to the computer.

    I blew out a front tire though...it already been tire goo'd once for a pin hole in the side wall. Made mild contact with a small rock and it blew out. Lesson learned you gotta carry a wheel spacer if you want your stock spare wheel's backspacing to work with anything with a thicker than stock spindle.

    Stacie putting on the driver's side tie rod boot. This picture also shows the spacer that All Pro made so I could use my SAW 2.5 coil overs for a while with the LT kit. I lost about 3/4'' of travel. Not bad for saving me $1200.

    and the tire that I destroyed at Calico offroading after mod day:
