Mid travel overland-wheeler build with 35's and BS w/ SAS in the works

What happened to falkens?

 

The tread is soft so they wear quick and I'm going 40's so id like them to last a little

 

Pro comp 40s $388 each 40k mile

 

Hmmm I forgot all about that.

 

Please don't run pro comps

 

Meh, "minor" issues when already doing the fab work needed to get the rest of it done.

My main dilemma is buy/build a house this summer or SAS, lol.

 

That's easy. Both. In the buying house process right now. And kinda in the SAS process

 

Easy to say. If this project goes well I will. But my motorcycle hobbies aren't cheap other.

 

Good thing this is my main hobby

 

The truck is my secondary.

 

You hack the frame off?

 

you on my FB check it.

 

Looks good, how much higher than stock is it? Moving coil over hoops too? Re linking, I know I saw you say something about a 4 link?

 

Looks good....lots of work there

 

The whole front end is being replaced. The new frame is 3.5" higher. And the engine was already raised 1.5"ish from when I made it lower. 4 link all depends if I can dbl tri it. Full hydro should be here this week. Got a hell of a deal from Jake burkey

 

What's up man nice build I'm rnot guy inside nc on hwy 26... likes be seeing some nice tacomas around here!!

 

Thanks buddy. In a few months the build will be taking a big turn. In the planning phase now but will hopefully be done before the Moab trip in May. Wanting to take my time and plan everything out right for this because this is the biggest investment I've ever put into a vehicle I've owned.

We always have a good bit of trips planned throughout the year so you're always welcomed to join. Check out my IG because I always post on there when we are going on trips. I usually have a passenger seat on trips if you'd like to ride sometimes.

 

Well the guy sold the rear 14 bolt out from under me so fuck him haha. But now I'm looking for either a 10.5 rear or a D60 rear. I'm more than likely going with a 10.5 rear. Going to a junk yard in a few days to see what they have and snatch one up then. No more relying on people's word on Craigslist cause they suck.

 

This will also be my setup going in with the swap.

• 12" 2.0 King piggyback coilovers (front)
• 14" 2.5 King piggyback shocks (rear)
• Chevy 63's
• SOS shock relocation hoops
• SOS shackle flip kit
• Going with 38's in tires to begin with and yes after doing more research I'm leaning towards the falkens again. Yes they're soft tires but they perform really well and if I rotate them often I should be able to get 35k from them. (Came from a jeep buddy who owns a pair)
• Going with PSC hydro steering
• 5.38 Yukon gears
• Arb lockers front and rear
