Keystone State Thread

Lifts are easy if the components are already assembled. I’d be happy to lend a hand. We’ve done a bunch of them
What are you going with?

 

Truly I’m not 100% sure. I want to really do my homework and make sure I’m going with the best possible thing for what I want it to do. Next month will be ditch lights and rock sliders/side steps and right before the summer hopefully a lift and tires. I want between a 2-3” lift, as I still use the bed for brush hauling to the dump/compost pile. I guess that is what is slightly holding me back from a lift, plus I don’t want to be assembling it in 30 degrees if I go that route.

 

So figure out what you want & wait until spring to install. Problem solved.

 

Ask questions also. There is a lot of knowledgeable local peeps on here.

 

For the love of tacos don’t do what I did. Still trying to make up for lost time and figuring out what I want.

The guys will couch I’m constantly asking questions about suspension stuff. I’ve yet to actually put anything on the front end that isn’t used. (Bonus points to the guys because they’ve given me hand-me-downs) I’ve got the rear done though.

 

Addressed to all(CAPITALIZED WHERE THE GOOD STUFF BEGINS): maybe you guys(and gals) could help me out then, I’m sure the ditch lights + front bumper light bar install is no biggie and shouldn’t take a ton of time seeing I already took my grille off once to put in the pro grille. FOR THE LIFT, I don’t do any off-roading as of yet, essentially a mall crawler/off-roading build. I have an SR, and if I was gonna do heavy off-roading I would have gotten a higher trim, but would rather spend 30k then 38k at the dealer and use it(8K) to make it my own. I like the look of the lift and know that suspension components and other mechanical components wear faster with a lift. I want to stay at that 2-3” lift as I personally don’t want to go bigger or higher then that. I know rough country doesn’t get the best reviews and I would prefer to do it right the first time rather then go cheap and have to do it all over again. Any suggestions?(I’m use to low cars: 06 Civic, 17 WRX)

 

Best bet is to go with what you want & fits the budget. Back in the day the 5100 lift was the way to go for a budget upgrade. Just make sure if you get coil overs that they are pre assembled.
The front upgrade takes about 3 hours & the rear About and hour & a half.
Dakar’s and a u bolt flip are the standard upgrade for the rear.

@19taco4x4 if you can, go to a taco meet up and check out what the other trucks have and you can get a better idea which way you want to go.

Very good idea.

 

dick,
that was a secret

 

Nice

 

Thanks for the video brother!

 

Nice work. Thanks.

 

Who all did TWSS this year? Missed the post by a day but psyched to see how awesome TW community is and how close everyone is.

 

I believe this is my 3rd year, if you can make your post counts and get in next year it is always fun, there are always a few “bad santa’s“ but the mo...Er Elves usually have a list of “Back up Santa’s”. That step in. Bad Santa’s are banned from participating in future TWSS.

I can’t say I’ve ever been disappointed either

 

im in , kind of exciting

 

Going to see Matt on Friday per Gabbie's recommendation/offer for some fluid film love.

 

Where did you get your mall rated sticker? I would love to pick one up for my mall crawler.
