    3 leaf stock. I'm looking for a full 3" in the front and around 2" in the back. I may end up keeping the overload to get that extra lift. Overall, I'm looking to get the truck as level as possible.

    Keep the overload in for 2" otherwise it's rated as a 1.5" lift.

    I got 2" with mine but I was nose high with 5100s at .85 (though I got around 1.5" of lift at that setting). It sucked.

    Hope your ass stays high enough for those coils. Only disappointing thing about the 3 leaf AAL was it was just barely not enough.

    I see what you mean. I strayed away from the Dakar's only because I rarely have a constant load in the bed, almost never actually, so I wanted something a little more forgiving offroad. What would you recommend? I hate rake but I also hate the bro lean... What do you mean by them barely not being enough?

    I loved them until I bought a shell (225lbs) and it took all of my remaining take away except about half an inch.

    I loved them otherwise. I'm just a little concerned your 887s are gonna be taller than your 3 leaf and 3 leaf AAL.

    If its only a half inch or so I think I can live with it but if I'm driving down the road with an empty bed and it looks like I have a thousand lbs in the back, that's when it'll be a problem for me. I hope it works well together. :fingerscrossed: Worst case scenario I'll get a 1" block until I can save up for a full leaf pack.

    DIY bike rack 2.jpg D-ring 2.jpg D-ring 1.jpg DIY bike rack- 1.jpg


    Added two D-rings in the front of the bed and finished up my DIY bike rack. After I took out the two bed bolts I couldn't get the washer off so I ground down the washer flat so that it would work with the flat part of the D-ring, then put the bed bolts back in. I was hoping that the rings would swivel like the ones in the back but I'm over it.

    Bike rack is schedule 40 PVC from ideas on this site. I think I spent a total of $20. It's nice to be able to haul all 4 of our bikes with the tires on and not rolling around.

    I printed out the instructions from info on this site and it's laying on my workbench. There are some designs for three bikes and some for four. When I get back home on Saturday (if you haven't found it already) I'll give you the link.

    Got some smoked tails off craigslist last night for $130. Put them on before leaving for work. Not sure if these are little too much rice, we'll see.

    For $400, I don't care if it's not the right color. :D

    Carpeted interior, led interior lighting, wireless lock/unlock, and it came with the Tacoma-specific clamps. :dancingbacon:

    I'll get it painted at some point.
