    It all depends on what you're planning on using it for. This allows you to run a 14" shock without cutting into the bed, and also allows a 2.5" body shock with bypasses. It gets the upper shock mount as high as it can possibly go.

    I have ford mounts going on mine but i didnt spent 1/10 of that on them and they should work just fine for 14 2.5 bc ive seen others use it cant justify that amount when the shocks are around that price

    The center caps I edited to black bc I am trying to figure out if I want them black or silver. I’m thinking black. But Then I like the silver too.

    The silver adds a nice contrast. Awesome wheels either way!

    The relocates are about $420 with TW discount and include lower mounts too, and grade 8 hardware. I just checked and the ford towers are $80 shipped to chicago, plus lower mounts and 1/2" grade 8 bolts so about $130 all in. Nothing wrong with going an economical route but they're not the same as an archive relocation. They tuck the shock more inboard for tire clearance. They bolt to the bed at the top for added rigidity. You can have external bypasses. You support small American business and fellow Tacoma enthusiast.

    I have no problem with that. If it was just the top part that was available for purchase for less I could consider it bc it does look clean and my motto is do it right and do it once but its still a lot.

    Yeah I hear you there and wish I would have followed that philosophy. I have the bamf relocate and 2.0 12s but would now like to cut them off and do the AG relocate and 14s but like you said, $$$$.

    Man that looks good, I like the over fender delete. I like the 3rd Gen SRs' look but couldn't understand why I didn't care for the 5-lugs and realized I didn't like the lowered look.

    Are you talking about the lack of flares and holes? Thanks, I love the look. Should be even better and more seamless once I bedline the truck.

    Yes, I believe that's what they're called- "over fenders", "over-fenders" or "overfenders" something like that haha
