    @Devir7 Lot's of us taking these out and pushing them! And I can get you an amazing price. explore-overland is the top US seller of Ironman. We also have them in stock. I'm happy to hook up Tacomaworld folks!

    As for buying just the fronts/rears/springs.....I can make that happen too but the kits are ideal. And if you don't like the green I also offer powder-coating and will assemble before they get shipped out to you.

    You’re right, it does look that way... that would be annoying to deal with. I’d be interested to see when the first person gets it and some feedback.

    I got my kit back in August but I’ll be sure to recommend you for other people looking.
    Personally, I’m a fan of the green, at least with my black truck, it gives it a nice little pop but it’s not for everyone. I still would have considered getting them powder coated. @Calamity_taco was looking into these and had the question about the fronts.

    Id be interested to hear on your opinion of both if you end up changing. Just curious on why your looking to replace Kings. For most they are the best of the best... not that I actually know lol.

    They're set at 2 inches with i think #700 springs and I'm really not wanting to turn them up anymore but I need 3 inches to sit level to what the rear is .

    That makes sense. Well, at least you can probably sell the Kings to pay for the IM and a little extra lol.
    @Larry Dangerfield has them on his Nissan and likes them so it sounds like they’re good on more than the Tacoma’s. Don’t know much about the T4R but good luck if you put them on.

    Thanks for the find! I love the ironman cutouts. Would be a nice combination piece, but I think that’s actually coming from one of their bumpers... See here Darn, now they got me nearly sold on two parts!

    Either way its a good price point, especially when you consider it as a 3-piece set and not the standard two. As for oil changes.. I’m okay with removing it, if its only the front piece. Looks like there’s a few extra screws than the factory plate, but I enjoy turning wrenches. I pulled all the skids off recently to do the por-15 paint job and, boy oh boy, did that take a moment of laying there to remember how it went back in, heh.

    Btw, chopped up a new build video in case you guys are interested. I’m sharing it around, getting the views and whatnot. Had fun with this process! See you all ‘round

    Oh there will be some mods all right
    Yeah I beat the piss out of The FCPs. Most capable suspension I've personally experienced. I got carried away over and over again and it came back for more. Got to the point where I saw a big dip or stretch of potholes on logging roads and sped up yeehawing and shit :anonymous:

    I’m still a little nervous to drive at stuff like this... I’ve noticed its much more cush-ier in the front for things like potholes, but going over speed bumps, etc. it felt much stiffer in the rear. I’m also sitting a few lb’s shy of 6k, so that’s a lot more bump in the trunk, heh.

    I guess what I’m saying is, I haven’t quite figured out what exactly the IM has improved upon for whats encountered beneath the wheels. I just figured it would help with the added load on top of it.

    I’ve not heard anyone needing to do it but these can also be rebuilt if needed. IM sells the seal kits.
