    Hello Tacoma World.

    I have had 883's on my truck for the past year running a ARB bumper w. no winch.

    Long story short I have put 15k miles on them and they are still WAY too stiff. I am also getting this clunking noise in the passenger side that sounds like suspension is topping out; not sure.

    I am looking at switching to the 882 coils and adding a winch and differential drop; opinions?

    My CV's are busted as well and will replace in the process. Are Tacoma CV's prone to binding? It is around 40 here in Salt Lake so wondering if I should also rent a torch in addition to the slide hammer to yank the old ones out. Cheers!

    Don't do the diff drop. Waste of money.
