    Hey fellow PA taco owners. Hope ypu all have been well lately. Its been a awhile since I've introduced myself to and visited the thread. Work was pretty busy and now we get hit with this corona crop. I wanted to pop in and get some opinions on my plans for a lift and tires. Any final opinions before i swipe the card are much appreciated.

    So I've got a 2019 TRD Pro that I've been wanting to do a small lift and either 32" or 33" tires. I have been reading different threads picking peoples experiences and opinions. My truck is my daily driver so I'd like to maintain drive ability. I do like to take it offroad, which mainly is only fire roads and some simple trails. I don't do anything crazy so the factory fox suspension is more than enough for me.

    For tires I'm going to go with the wrangler duratracs. In either 265/75/16 or 285/75/16. I've read good reviews on them, they have a half decent aggressive look to them (imo) and plus they're rated for severe snow as well since I have to work even if there's snow.

    For the lift I was going to go with a 1" top spacer from headstrong off road.
    https://www.headstrongoffroad.com/store/p30/HS_1/2"_Top_Plate_Spacers_-_TT05512-TPS.html

    And for the rear I was going to go with the icon 3 leaf progressive AAL, as opposed to a single AAL which I've read can wear out and start to sag sooner.
    https://www.headstrongoffroad.com/store/p95/Icon_1.5_Inch_Progressive_Add-a-leaf_-_51100_(PAIR).html

    Just wanted to get some final opinions before I go through with all the ordering. Here's a couple pics of my first/recent excursion to Famous Reading Outdoors

    So. I took my Deadpool mask (see profile pick <--- ) to work today, to specifically take a staged photo to tag Ryan Renolds in... in an attempt to get his Gin but. some shit went down. or up... Hopefully tomorrow I can get the pic and send it. If I get some I may consider sharing once this is over.

    I tried calling mine multiple times - like 100.... and got nothing but a busy signal. Same cluster as the web site just with phones. They’ll never get another dime from me. Buncha goat ropers. I’ll go dry before they get my money. I’m going to Jersey... Joe Canals in Mercerville is letting people store shop again beginning tomorrow.

    Mornin' fellow Pennsyltuckians!! Cold and rain...must be April in PA.

    I was sitting at my desk last night about 7:45, surfing TW of course, when this guy swooped right by my window and landed on the front porch - overlooking the birdfeeder and where he got his kill the other day. Sat there for a minute or so and flew off into the trees along our property line.

    @Devious6 Last year we had a red tailed hawk @ our family's cabin which for a time was hanging close to the buildings. When we arrived, the hawk took off from whichever roof he was on, flying beside our trucks, like to welcome us. After tractors were started and we were in the fields mowing, he would again fly parallel with us, swooping back around. Dad and I would be mowing in separate fields, and this hawk would take turns doing this to both of us. In 2012 when my Sister passed, we made a marker and spread her ashes under a huge pine, beside the creek which runs through our property. Might sound strange, but we swear it's Pam.
