    Found my dream shop that specializes in only things Toyota, well worth the drive! Thank you Tandem Offroad for the best experience ever throughout multiple visits! They are so conscientious, thorough, and honorable! Incredibly fun guys to hang out with! They designed such a simple solution that let me shed the block in the back from my 6" bds lift while maintaining perfect ride height etc. Oh and 24" of travel isnt so bad either, while also fixing the axle wrap! My shop of choice in the dfw / ft worth area! #dreamshop #toyotaspecialists #suspension #liftsdonerightright #bdssuspension #foxshocks #arboldmanemu #uboltflip #dropshackles #tacoma #axlewrap #alignment #tandemoffroad #rideslikeadream #hammerhanger

    The same guy speaks highly of these mouse traps also. If I had mice I would buy one of each. They will last you a lifetime.

    I know what you mean, the advisor was there to check me in & out. The oil change bays are clean, waxed floors lol, and you're able to talk directly to the techs. They also pulled my truck into the mechanics shop to balance the tires, silence the seat belt chimes, and change lane change-blinkers to "7 blinks". I walked back with the service manager and looked at a set of 16" take-offs.

    Yeah I try not to go past 65 or so on the freeway, it definitely reduces my MPGs. High octane gas has so far only netted me a 1mpg gain, so I think it makes more economic sense to run 87 and I haven't felt a power difference or response in throttle going down to 87. Then again, I am a little heavier than stock with my armor/tires/lift.

    Yeah, try top tier rated gas instead of the arco/pilot stuff. Costco is the best value for me.

    I've had a broken passenger tail light for over a year now. I feel your pain. I don't want to buy a stock replacement. I have a reminder set for when they come back in stock on Meso's website.

    i checked my truck after seeing your post and I too have the same sticker. I also have the MBRP but the service rep told me it was due to the CAI i was running. I guess they cover their ass: Wrote on the service report, they verbally told me and a sticker - went in for the TSB 0062-18 flash.

    Out of curiosity, why shackle flip instead of extended hangers with SUA (BAMF or Archive)? Also, not 24" of travel, just nice flex. Do you know what leaf pack that is?

    That wrap looks nice.

    What all did you end up going with? Haven’t seen a post from you in awhile. I went this route about I’d say a month now ago. Archive Garage makes amazing products for just this as well. Never even installed my Rear Suspension System that came with the 6” BDS Kit (I.e. Block, etc). I went with the following:

    • Fox 2.5” Remote Reservoir Rear Shocks, DSC w/ RR Mounting Frame Bracket - Thanks to AccuTune Off-Road, Inc
    • ArchiveGarage Hammer Hanger w/ Stock Shackles (Provides 1/2” Lift) - Thanks to @ARCHIVE
    • ArchiveGarage Specific U571 Deaver Spring, 4”+ Lift with Stock Weight - Thanks to @ARCHIVE
    • ArchiveGarage HD U-Bolt Flip Kit Option 4: 3.25” OD Pedestal Mount for thread in bumpstop, with 3/8-16 flange nut welded in, with 3" tall Wheeler's SuperBump BumpStops - Thanks to @ARCHIVE
