    Nice that you have a new pack to work with though! :p I was going to use my new pack to make a bastard chevy pack. Hoping I can ask the techs for the stock leaves and lca's when they do the frame.

    If I wasn't trying to take as little as possible on the move I would have asked for the old parts. I'll probably end up getting some chevy springs at some point. I have 882 sitting around now and I know just adding these 2 leaves won't level the truck with those on. So I'll either build another pack or buy some Dakars.

    Please correct me if I am wrong, but I thought that OME doesn't make greaseable shackles for the 95.5-96 Tacomas?

    95-00 use same shackles. 95-97 the shackles are mounted forward more.

    Ah. So the shackles are the same despite the leafs being different? Nice. Thanks for the info. Might have to look into getting a pair.

    Do all K&N air filters need to be oiled? Box doesn't say anything, the Internet says it doesn't really matter, but the internet does lie Soo.

    Got these in today.

    Will be test fitting them after work, then start painting.

    Kind of hoping the front skid doesn't use a certain set of mounts that the stock skids used. A mechanic sheared a bolt in one of the mounting locations during the previous ownership. Have the tools to fix it, but I don't want to haha

    Down to 11mpg. No check engine light or noticable problems. Better start throwing money at it.

    Dude, $100 off on their site until the 31st. Basically equals free shipping.

    And I have a 10% off code they shipped with the skids. You could use it if you want, but I'd have to call in the order in order to get you the10% off.

    Quick question for guys that have done the Tundra 13WL upgrade with a painted reman caliper and the wheelers banjo lines.. did you machine the flange flat / strip the coating or just crush the washer into the finish?
