    Saw this on instagram today. He doesn't have a TW Account but he's got a really nice SAS build going.

    Yeah.. he's got a sas taco, a lifted fj cruiser, a rzr, and a dirt bike... either he hit that lottery or mommy and daddy gave him a large sum of money for graduation.

    I actually asked him about where he was getting his money from and he said that he was on a full ride + some extra money, so he spends the extra money almost entirely on his truck. Either way, he definitely has some cash to blow.

    NO. He brags about how his mom buys all his shit for him, hes in high school. Used to be a 6" pro comp lift before this, its just the all poo kit. Also he tac welded his D rings to his bumper after someone stole one of them :facepalm: Zero respect for him IMO

    What is everyone's thoughts on keeping the stock rear axle? What's the strength of the diamond up front compared to the the 8.4'' toyota rear?

    Really depends on what 3rd member you get in the diamond.. but the housing itself is alot stronger.. 3/8 thick axle tube..

    Yup. He goes to them for literally everything except the coil overs apparently. The most "wheeling" that truck has done is forest service roads.
