    That movie is one of the scariest comedies I've ever seen.

    Hotchkiss and Helwig both make them. Why people actually put them on a Tacoma, who knows. I could see it on a track car (hellwig and Horchkiss’s background), but not a truck.

    Was my biggest fear when I surf SC or Scuba off the harbor jetty in Monterey.

    I used to surf manresa in aptos a lot until the helicopter tours out of Watsonville started spotting the landlord there consistently.

    I give up. Apparently I don’t follow enough people on IG. Couldn’t see any of the instafamous 2nd genners I follow part with their rigs.

    There was a Hellwig sticker on the window.

    They have their place, just not on a wheeling rig. If you tow, or just drive like an asshole and never leave pavement, that rear sway bar is awsome. That's why I have one on the tundra.

    indeed, I've done some pretty hard cornering on pavement with my essentially stock 2gen 4x4 TRD OR, and body roll is not a big issue. and I've towed a 3500 lb trailer 1000s and 1000s of miles on interstates, back country roads, over mountains, across deserts, and ditto, not had any issues a antisway bar would have improved.

    I used to be an assistant for scuba classes. One of the instructors was kind of a princess. He was off the wall by the CG pier when we ghosted a 6’ shark past his head. That thing was as dead as it could be but glided just perfectly passed his head…omg. Never laughed so hard.
