    Saw some pics on here (another thread) and really liked it. She seems skeptical. Does sound like a strange combo, but I just don't wanna do black again. Or chrome :anonymous:

    Unchained 5150's Pyrite Mica looks amazing with the red additions he has. Really pops. I can't see where the opposite wouldn't hold true.

    Not a first gen (obviously :D) but I like it.

    And if you drink... a lot... this might look ok :luvya::rofl: Only have MS paint here, and no skills, but it's probably the first thing. Bronze TRD's on the actual truck...

    Speaking of bronze, got the stealth 6 rims on order. All that's left is dakars and tires.

    I really like more rubber.

    I just have to have a little bit different setup for the spindles I'm running.

    The Maxtrac spindles are massive af

    So I think I decided on the 5160's plus the new leaf pack and AAL for the rear. Now just to wait for payday, the folks at headstrong OR definitely are refreshing to work with, timely responses to all of my questions and what not.

    speaking of more rubber... you decide on what tire you want to go with?
