    I imagine at some point you want to not be too high for rollover sake I'd assume ?

    I know nothing about LT. I just find Mall parking lots 180 miles in the woods away from civilization

    I'm wondering if I would get more use out of full LT or just those crazy exspensive rcv axles on extravel. All I do is crawl.

    I got LT cause I like to drive fast. Crawling is interesting to me, but not what fuels me or else I would probably be in the same boat.

    Just depends what you want the truck to do. I’m taller for more uptravel and ground clearance when crawling. Lower is gonna be more stable at higher speeds. That being said, I’ve never felt unstable at speed due to height.

    I have an ARB double. I just use it to fill my tires. On the port coming from the compressor, I have a second line going to the back, where I have a quick disconnect chuck line. I havent used it in a long time, and I was going to run the air line to a tank, and then another one to the quick disconnect so I can use air tools from the tank.

    Im not sure anymore

    That's basically what I planned to do, minus the tank. Airlines front and back.

    I wish someone made a CTIS system for Tacomas.
