    I'm kidding, doing some suspension upgrades and putting a different oil pan in so i could remove the front diff without pulling the engine.

    Tore the Coilovers out, then took the springs off to send them off to Accutune for a retune.

    I know a lot about kill switches. I've installed thousands of them. Some of them can get very unique. I did a kill switch on a motorhome where the driver had to release the emergency brake and close the ash tray before it would start. I think I might have made a post about kill switches, I don't have a very good memory for things like that, I'll look for it.

    I would go with a basic battery on/off switch and at least 2 kills.

    My Tacoma's stock suspension is tired. 130k and has real heavy tires and wheels. I found a listing for low mileage Bilstein 3rd gen takeoffs, struts with springs and hats, rear shocks, leaf springs, all for $200. They were located in North County, 50 minutes from me but my step son was coming down to work with me at the boat yard and he lives in North County so he bought the parts for me but never showed up to work... LMAO

    Same crap everyone else got
    Both. Take the first one, double it, then put it in a "V" configuration
