    Good to know. I travel to the Greeley/Fort Collins area occasionally, so next time i'm up there I'll stop by.

    Here's the thing about Cali, people actually bother to sue and bring you and everyone you love down in the legal system if someone happens. Can't imagine if one of those cars fell on someone or they got hurt.

    I don't know if other yards do this but pick n pull makes you sign a waiver when you enter.

    Damn, that's nice. I could get more, but I am currently limited by my shocks. Either I have to raise my bumpstops (the cheaper, easier, and original plan) or do a shock relocate (the superior, but more expensive and harder plan).
    This was the passenger shock at that point:

    And the bumpstop, which compresses something like 1.5". So, my shock will bottom out before the springs stop traveling.

    Oh and here is another snow flex picture, but from when I was still on stock suspension. It does flex pretty nicely overall.

    Yeah I'm surprised my shocks didn't limit my travel more. I just have cheap Monroes on the back and they're pretty short.

    Well you said you're stock, so you're not lifted. You shouldn't have to worry about shocks being the limiter, afaik. Your stock bumps should limit the stock springs appropriately.

    (If the link works)

    If anyone ever has problems with ignition rod thing here’s an option to get you home/ by for awhile. Just got figure out a way to get the steering wheel lock to stop, I used a screw driver.

    Sorry for the snatch chat quality video.

    your frame scares me.

    Also, just get some spacers for the bump. Wheelers sells them.

    mine only rub at full lock. 1 inch spacers caused rubbing at the mud flap/pinch weld area. I think only about quarter inch spacer is needed.

    Boost question: I always see aftermarket pulleys or 7th injectors added to Superchargers. Is that correcting an issue or is it just to add additional horsepower? Is it not noticeably different without these add-ons?

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    7th is a fuel correction essentially so you don't need a new ECU and bigger injectors. Pulley adds boost

    So the pulley is optional, 7th is necessary?
