    I followed the whole conversation in the CO BS thread.

    I think you made the right choice for how you use your truck, and the way it's built. Plus if you do end up getting a real DD then you will have no regrets.

    Nice truck.

    If it were me, I'd go balls-to-the-wall with the first mod.

    Do the 5-speed manual transmission mod.

    Shit dude. This place is tame. Go to a supra forum. They will rip you to pieces for just not having enough posts :laugh:





    All i can say about the pissing match before is......i got to really excersie the new "like" feature a lot over the last few pages :D :rofl: Thanks @tcBob

    Nothing. Not a damn thing.

    Drive it. Learn what it does and how it acts. Do ALL maintanece on it.

    Then figure out what you want out of it.

    Totally different drive train...

    id have recommend 4.56s all day. But if your doing this VVVVV
    And its not a DD then 4.88s will be great on the trail.

    Sweet fancy Moses.

    Makes me wish I had a winch and makes me glad I never wheel alone. (except the one time I destroyed my rocker panel on MSV/CF)

    I just went though this. The obvious failure was on the driver side but once I opened up the passenger side, I found starting to leak as well.

    Plan on doing both sides.

    Good eye.
    You're right. I think it lost it's charge, but there is no sign of leaking or a bent shaft. It still dampens but there is a flat/dead spot in it with no resistance. I just pulled it off and tossed it in the back until tomorrow.

    Those are sweet! 255/85/16? I'm also a fan of the bedside decals. What building is that in the background?
