    And now I'm intrigued :rofl:

    The fun thing is the wife is signed into chrome on our PC. I'll google all sorts of random stuff. She'll be on her phone and when she clicks the search bar it'll have all those searches :D

    But then she's all like "did you search how to get away with murder of wife and hide the body?!?" :laugh:

    My boyfriend is leaving for ATX for work today at around Noon. Depending on where the pickup is down here he may be able to run them up to you. Get me some info and I can ask.

    Overlanding Rig
    Had a conversation last night with the wife about her T4R and the suspension. When we load the rig down with all the gear the rear sags and with future plans to add armor to the front we're now exploring options to change things up. Ideally i'd like to re-use the factory TRD Pro shocks and just go with springs to provide a bit more lift but moreover better capability for handling extra weight.

    @Texoma - Correct me if i'm wrong, but don't you have TRD Pro shocks on @T4Rgurl 's rig and non TRD Pro springs? My wife is good with getting a bit more lift but at this point doesn't want to go so high she'll need UCA's. Just looking for a bit of advice before we pull the trigger and then schedule with you to do in the install :D :D :thumbsup:

    do the green lights look white to you?
    Curious what you end up with. my rear springs came from http://www.coilsprings.com/ while the fronts are the 620s from Toytech. I didn't really want more than an inch of lift....still don't. Just want stiffer springs. my roof rack is 80lbs, my hitch rack is 50. loaded up for a race weekend and i'm still sagging, and i can tell the springs are overloaded.
