    Ya i have buddys with both kits the giant kit is more difficult to setup but yields close to 5 inches of extra travel over the DMZ kit. When setup right it works amazing. I am not dead set on giant but leaning that way. I have talked to tim and geoff at giant most people dont set the giant kit up right so it works like shit but we will see when the time comes and what kind of deal i can get. That being said i dont know anybody that has any complaints with the dmz kit so i gotta weigh that as well

    I haven't seen any springs that look the same or have same lift or number of leaves. I'd say they have a shop making them to their specs.
    They look pretty good

    Gathering parts first, then will begin looking for a rollover/blown engine/something 2nd gen. All my parts are for a 2nd gen.

    Cliffs notes: Had 5 lug. Built it. Tried things. Mostly sat parked though. Traded in 5 lug for 2012 4x4 this past May. Totally enamored with new to me Tacoma, can't bring myself to build it up (aka, cut, smash, etc....)

    So I will be building a trail pig.

    Goal really is all around as useful as I can get. Not looking to do insanely crazy wheeling, but built enough to handle the northeast terrain I live in, the "medium" trails and be able to push a limit or two but also be able and ready to take on some higher speed fun if and when the opportunity arises.

    So far I have:
    Camburg/SAW 2.5 Racerunner Coilover
    Dirt King UCAs (being shipped)
    All Pro Standard Leaf Pack. (being shipped, here this coming week)

    Maybe a bolt extractor bit but I don't think that will work if it's that badly seized. Probably have to just drill it out and retap the thread. Did you use any pb blaster or something like that before trying to loosen the bump?
