    Hello TW,

    Been looking at this site for about a year now after getting an 18' TRD Sport. Would have been totally satisfied with my new beauty but alas... JK. I really appreciate the willingness of this community to share info (if not always correct or relevant but data is data) and those who genuinely care about their trucks. Also is a build ever really done?

    :spending:

    Recently installed a Eibach Pro Truck Kit and Icon's 1.5" AAL (no OL leaf) and have to say it rides like the sport should. Having very mild drive line issues but after reading some of @TscotR214 and @maxamillion2345 posts my eyes are open, thank you. The picture is how she looks currently.

    :cheers:

    Only ~500-600 miles since lift. Very mild drive-line vibes with stock CB and Axle angle. Recently got an angle finder and dropped the CB one fender washer. Vibrations are better but not a lot of drive time since the CB drop. When I was cleaning the wheels to derp most of the wheel weights fell off or were already gone (the Big O in my town is not the best) so that may be a small part of what I am feeling through the steering wheel (almost unnoticeable regardless). Apart from that the Eibachs are pretty much bolt on but the Icon AAL required using an angle grinder on a leaf spring retaining clip rivet (funnest part for me but not exactly "bolt on"). It rides great but it is sporty (meaning stiff) but properly sporty with pretty decent progressive damping (you get what you pay for and it is a Tacoma not a caddie). Not regretting it... yet.
