Does anyone in the SD area have experience with doing a rear "shackle flip" on a Tacoma with the OME Dakar leaf pack? I recently installed a King mid-travel suspension kit, but the truck is not level. I'd like to get some extra travel in the back. Thanks

Where are you deploying to and where are you storing your truck?

 

I'll pass on parking downtown in the taco, that shit is for smart car parking.

 

I was gunna bring my bike personally lol

 

I will be heading to middle east area. Truck will be with fiance in az, just don't want my tools cluttering up her house

 

Oh ok I work with the military and shipping and storing their vehicles that's why I was asking. How I got mine was go to a hole in the wall used car dealer and ask if they have any tool boxes laying around. I picked mine up for 50 bux

 

I can do it for you, lemme know if I can help, pretty open for scheduling for the next couple weeks.

 

Awesome! Thanks for what you do and the great tip!

No worries bro figured I could help you ojt

 

My Tacoma build is finally moving along after having a bearing fail in the transmission (gave me an excuse to add power!)...got a stack of parts to make the V8 Mo-betta, taking my new cylinder heads into the shop for machining (valve job touch up and resurface), I recently got a pair of Vette Z06 heads with Titanium/sodium valves so it will rev to over 7K RPMs. I fully ported them last week (very time consuming!), decked the block last night so its ready for the heads.

Upgraded the timing chain and sprockets, added an LS2 chain damper (the LS1 doesnt have one), new valvesprings and LS9 head gaskets, just also found a set of 3/8" pushrods and a bigger fuel pump, all I need now is a camshaft and the heads back from the shop and its build time.

Doing all the motor work in prep for going turbocharged. Yes you heard that right a turbo LS1 Tacoma. Looking at the 500-600rwhp range. Cant wait to hear that turbo spooling up!! Im going to have to custom make another set of headers for it again, but I may only have to build the passenger side since my drivers side already has a crossover type setup, I just need to make the piping smaller (3" down to 2.5 or even 2") for better spooling of the turbo.

Gotta start getting that 8.8 rear end ready and add a larger fuel tank or just modify mine by adding volume. 15 gallons dont cut it since I always drive so far I need better range. Would LOVE to have a large fuel cell in it but whatever I add needs to fit in the stock location because I need to keep my spare tire

 

Can't wait to HEAR the new engine fire up!

 

Me too, its been out of action for almost 2 months!!!

 

Anybody know what happened to MightyMouse-SCT (Gabe I think). Looks like he got perma-banned.

 

He got banned for a week and then asked to have his account and all posts deleted.

 

yeah they removed the entire mid travel thread he started too...

 

That's rough. He will be back.

 

He's not coming back
