DoubleRGirl's Hello Kitty Edition Build - 2015 TRD Sport 6-speed

@DoubleRGirl Just reading through a bunch of build threads and noticed that your roof light bar is mounted to the OEM roof rack. What did you use as the brackets? Something simple or fabricated?

 

I got mine used from someone in this thread:
https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/sell-42-light-bar-roof-rack-mounts.335328/

 

Nice, Thanks for the link. Do you think they'd work with a curved 42"?

 

I don't see why not, but I really don't know

 

here's another before and after. i only have like 3 photos from when the truck was stock, she got new wheels and tires within 24 hours

 

I have to ask ... why is your TRD Sport sticker on backwards? "TROPS DRT"

 

just to mess with the stoners

i flipped the photo so it would line up with the other one hehe

 

I noticed that to. Actually 1st thing I noticed was the exhaust was coming out the wrong side, then I noticed the sticker.

 

Did you take any measurements for how much lift you got?

So the ride with the 5100's is noticeably better than the stock Bilsteins?

 

Do you have 10ply/E-rated tires?

 

As of yesterday the front is sitting 2.5" higher, and the rear is about 2" higher

I'm used to more of an aggressive ride and the stock suspension felt rockier to me, it feels most solid now without being jarring

i believe they're C load. i thought E would be uncomfortable

 

Yeah E are really jittery on mine (so much so really dislike the handling now) but all they had to offer in 265/75-16's for the Duratracs. My snow tires which were on sale/cheap are E-rated too and are jittery due to the stiffer carccas.

I was hoping you had 5100's and E tires and the ride improved. I think I'll just have to get C load again unless I drop 3-4k on fully adjustable shocks to adjust the dampening and rebound for the stiffer tires.

 

Great news fam! I have this on order, totes stoked:

Were you the chick from 600r.net?

 

Yes she was, lol

 

Wasn't she banned for something? I vaguely remember some drama around her or some other chick on there.

 

That i couldnt say. I havent been on there in a couple years now

 

banned??? i'm a mod haha

 

the banned girl was ninja something i believe. i don't have all the juicy details on it
