    Oh that's not too bad. Only 30 minutes away from my work. I'll call the close place but google says it's a dealership.

    Here's truck!

    Some really cool shit
    No brake lines ordered. But the truck is already sitting on a 3 inch lift. I don't plan to extend that so hoping no need. But I'll listen to anyone who thinks it's needed. Keeping the current leaf pack. I added a leaf after I bought the truck. Micah thinks I should be fine. I did get the shackle flip kit.

    You'll want longer lines for piece of mind if nothing else. Especially if you are going with a shackle flip kit

    Was talking with a buddy of mine about gas mileage on our tacomas, he also has a 2012. He told me about a company called "long range automotive" out of Australia. He just installed a new tank he got through them and it's a 33 Gallon tank. Don't remember what he said he paid, but I'm sure it was pricey. Especially to ship here. Thinking about getting one later on down the road.

    Anyone else going to this?

    LOCAL BAY AREA MEET UP.

    You are cordially invited to attend our local meet-up at the Epidemic Brewery in Concord on Saturday August 5th at 12 PM. Epidemic is located at 150 Mason Circle in Concord. Epidemic will be reserving an area inside for us and will have a food truck on site that day. I have also set up a tour of their operation for those interested. I've scheduled it a little further out so people have time to plan. Feel free to invite your other Overland style clubs. In true Overland style, everyone is welcome! After talking with several members, we are trying to make these meet ups more regular, and throughout the Bay Area. Come on out and support the effort! Hope to see you there!

    Yeah, Don, I keep forgetting you already had a lift on there...but doesn't mean there aren't some gremlins waiting to nibble you pasty white ass, and you should definitely check actual droop (aka "draaaa[p") with and without shocks connected. I didn't expect you to do a shackle flip, and that adds further complication with shock length, bottoming, etc.

    Need to watch both shock length and brake line length.
