    Your tent wil definitely give you some body roll. I think with the compression turned up a little you will never notice the missing sway bar. I do wish it was easier to get to the adjusters though.

    I guess it makes less of an impact on the 350 (since they're not torque limited in higher RPMS like the 300) but it still increases your shift RPM and squeezes 10hp or so.

    Keep yours stock so I can beat you in a race. Thanks

    Yeah, especially when that usable HP is at 6500 rpm at Funny rocks, Moon rocks or Rubicon... or if turning the GX into an Ultra4...
    Torque is where it's at, not HP. (my opinion of course)

    My Tacoma makes 0 ft/lbs of torque until 3500RPM I wonder if mine is torque limited and there is a chip out there.

    Went to pick my driveshaft up from Drivelines NW to take it elsewhere, the guy behind the counter asked why I was and I said "well I can practically buy a whole new driveshaft with the price you quoted me", he responded "yeahhhh I know..." haha I laughed and walked out. Never going back there.

    Anyone got any words of wisdom wiring up AOB switches? Just trying to figure out if I need to buy a relay or use one already on the truck?

    I was just watching a youtube video last night of a woman driving a overthetop build rig with rear steering at that exact section.
    The copilot turned the rear wheel, rig rolls to the left and over, she grabbed the rollcage and got her hand caught between the rollcage bar.
    She nearly degloved the skin off her left hand.

    My buddy put his arm out on a particular section by Rimrock lake, nearly dislocated the elbow.

    Keep your arms in...
