    Any chance you were in Southern Oregon with this truck last summer? Could’ve sworn I saw it, unless it was a copycat.

    Stuff. Also things.
    Love seeing this truck out and about again! It was one of my absolute favorites on TW until it got sold. (Now @drr ’s truck is probably my new #goals rig).

    It must have been a copy cat. As far as I know I’m pretty sure this thing hasn’t left the Va area except road trips...

    Cool. One of a kind rear bumper on that truck. Only one I ever built for someone other than myself. Hopefully it's still holding up.

    I love it man. I get compliments on it almost daily. Everyone asks me where to buy it, and I tell them to look at the forum. Haha

    Tried researching axles for this MCM long travel kit. I broke one the other day being stupid. Put my spare in, drove 30 feet to exit a parking lot, and it snapped again. Any suggestions? These are just the cheap tundra axels from the auto parts store. They have lifetime warranties, but changing them often is getting annoying. I don’t really want to spend 2k per side on some that are just gonna break again... D1E0A173-FB7F-48A9-9959-1AFCE22F1BFA.jpg

    Try finding OEM tundra axles. The parts store ones will not but up to the task. Also IIRC you even need to mod the tundra axles too, no?

    @Blackdawg would know.

    Order new ones from Matt @ MCM. I’m still running the set I got with the kit after 2+yrs and over 100K miles.

    Don't bother with aftermarket axles. You want oem ones and you want then modified with the inner cup ground for Max travel and no binding.

    Matt will take care of you. They aren't cheap but I haven't blown one either even after gernading my diff at 45mph

    Hahah damn. Ok. Matt at MCM sounds like the way to go. The one I haven’t broke yet is clicking. So I should prolly replace both. Can I ask what they cost if you know? Any warranties? I’m pretty sure I’m the first one to break an axel on my truck since Paul owned it (2 owners Invetween)

    Not cheap. But they will last for a long long time.

    Think it's like..800? For a pair?

    And wow. Didn't realize it changed hands so many times.

    I’m pretty sure the set of two axles is more like 450$ before shipping. I’ll look at my invoice
