    Diff drop limits what skids you can go with. I have a carrier bearing drop though

    I'll worry about skids when I get to em :)

    Yea I think a CB drop would be a pretty solid idea

    Oh I'm definitely getting a diff drop. I've lifted 4 Toyotas and I like the CV angles a LOT better w/ a diff drop than without.

    Alright, who knows their wiring and would like to help out with a few projects?? I've got the following electrical projects to do, but don't want to do them myself and cause my Tacoma to burst into flames:

    Who knows their wiring. I MAY know a thing or two. Also, little tip, factory fogs dont switch power, they switch ground, so if i dont help, make sure who does knows this. You can ask @Lots2Learn58 how i found out.

    @Me. Projekt, when I was hanging out with @misdirection1982, he has met with SOS and wheeled with them. From what I gathered from his experience, SOS can be a little rough around the edges in regards to communication if they don't know you or wheeled with you. Mark had a similar reaction to them until SOS had a chance to wheel with him and then things seem to be a 180.

    I like good customer service as well, but a good fabricator tends to be on a crunch for time as they have orders to fulfill. Some are better at customer service than others, from what I have heard from SOS, they are a solid company and deliver on their products. If you are in a time crunch for the stuff, then you might be better off with another company as it sounds like SOS is indeed swamped with stuff. I personally don't mind the wait, as you know it will be worth it in the end. Mark might be able to shed some more light on this.

    Im just saying that unless SOS has met you in person, you might get that stone cold response. This doesn't mean you are a low priority, but that you might not get the most thorough responses. I have never owned any of their stuff, so I cant comment personally.

    I'd have to agree. A customer shouldn't have to pry information out of a company or feel like they aren't getting the attention they need.

    Every time I emailed Marie @HeadStrong Off-Road (before and after purchase) she not only answered my questions with complete answers, but also went beyond to inject additional information that I hadn't thought of asking yet.
