    Definitely changes things. Wife's sister just popped out her first kid. Wouldn't want to be in that situation right now.

    Well 168 Facebook messages in 5 hours and the truck sold to my friend after all that. Guess I posted it for way too little but pumped for a quick and easy transaction.

    Dang that sucks. I have christian06's tailgate anti theft device so hopefully that'll deter someone. I've been seeing more and more sketchy looking people in Cottonwood lately. Thanks for the heads up!

    They should pass a law that protects vehicle owners who handle their shit...maybe thieves would think twice.

    ok here is an issue I am having.
    the wheels I have-
    [​IMG]
    the problem I have- rubbing on the tire off of new lower control arm dual shock mount and this is with 1.5 spacer
    [​IMG]

    would this wheel move the rim edge out so no contact would be made at full lock?
    [​IMG]
    any thoughts would be appreciated

    If you order wheels from SCS for your truck, they will fit. It's one of the reasons I bought mine.

    They look sooo good too. I still look at them from time to time on my GX and go; “gosh damn those are nice wheels.”

    list is growing fast
    That’s like a 3” backspace On those wheels with your 1.5” spacer. Those 16x8” come in 4”, 4.5” and deep dish 3.5” backspace. The 16x8 4” bs are the sweet spot imo. But tire sizes are more limited at 16” as you know.

    I think moving your backspace inboard would help your problem.
    Plus those ray 10’s are solid and sexy.

    hmm good info here- I am going to need the spacers as I am adding a bypass upfront and the TC LCA's call for at least a 1.25 spacer. I was looking at the 4" SCS's in 16. I already know what tire I like to run -285/75R16 Toyo R/T's

    I confused, is this a picture of a different truck but with the same/different setup?
