    Looks higher. And much better without the tube steps.

    Now it needs some tires and sliders. :D

    It's gonna look awesome man.

    I actuallly plan on going to check out an '04 DC TRD 4x4 Tommorow after class. Looks just like your truck did when stock. I might end up getting a 1st gen DC 4x4 soon. Just not sure about going to an even smaller truck.

    man, i was hesitant at first, but i love my truck now that im making it my own. i realize you a pretty tall dude, so be sure to test drive a few times and be sure that it will fit you ok. i have a buddy who is tall as hell......like 6'6'', and skinny as a rail:D, but with the seat back a bit, he says its pretty comfy, so just try one out man. there is less power to the 3.4 that you can tell, but that motor is damn near bullet proof!!

    That reminds me of my buddy who is 6'4" and 270# (Rugby player). He bought an 86 Toyota Truck to do some wheeling in. I go over to check it out, and he gets in it. I thought I was going to have to CUT him out of it. His head was at the roof, steering wheels hitting his knees, etc. I told him I was going to buy him a Big red rubber nose and some curly hair..............

    Looking good Will! It's nice to see a little air between your tires and the fenders. It's gotta be like a brand new ride compared to b4.
