    @Texoma how much did you want for that rack again? Is it not as strong as the prinsu rack?

    Still new to this, so bear with me, but how much lift did you get and how much would that run me? I read up on the suspension forum, but I still feel like I don't know what 90% of this stuff means.

    Chad's running maxtrac spindles and a Dakar leaf pack in the rear. I think he has a TRD off-road suspension he put in. You won't be able to run spindles because you have 4x4. If you're looking for a good company to order a lift from or ask what to get talk to Marie at @HeadStrong Off-Road . If you want an inexpensive lift go with adjustable Billy 5100's with OME springs and an AAL. That's the route I'm going for the time being

    If I have the Taco I'll go, if not I'll ride with Zeb (assuming he goes, lol)

    Hey this might sound weird but I know a lot of y'all have kids... any of y'all have some trading cards stored away you'd sell a bulk amount for cheap? My youngest brother is getting into em now and although he's really active and literally has a six pack in 6th grade, he still spends 6-7 hours a day playing video games and I figured I'd try to get him a shit ton of cards so at least he's not looking at a screen. I can't remember what they're called but it's not Pokémon. I'll call my mom see if she knows what it's called

    I'm 2wd, so I used spindles for most of the lift. (4")

    And used 2016 TRD OR shocks and coils for another inch up front for a total of 5" front

    I run Dakar leaf springs in the back with extended length Bilsteins


    ^^^^^^

    Pretty much all that

    $200 obo. Not sure about if it's stronger than prinsu, but the prinsu rack offers the availability to store smaller items up top.
