    Hopefully this is a quick temporary setup. As I will be doing long travel again. Had to use money for that to put tires on my fiancé’s tundra.

    same with the Tacoma. Former Heep owners are making the switch due to realizing what pieces of shit Jeep’s are.

    I'll argue there have been cringy tacos a lot longer than there have been cringy Jeeps. The bro-ed up/cringy Jeep craze just started with the watered down JK model in the late 2000s. People have been bro-ing up Toyotas since the 80s.

    Don’t listen to the haters. I got a ladder installed a month ago and only used it 0 times and it’s worth every penny!!! I get so many compliments at the local Starbucks parking lot Haha

    just ordered the lift for my 2012 460:

    OME front coilovers with 885 springs
    OME rear coils
    Icon rear aluminum shocks

    I have installed every lift (and lowering kit) on all my vehicles. this time around I'm debating just taking this somewhere since i don't feel like fucking with the KDSS. any thoughts? is it as annoying as i think it will be? or is it not so bad?

    It’s not bad. KDSS doesn’t add any difficulty.

    Agreed, KDSS doesn't add any "difficulty" per se, but it does add a couple of extra steps. You have to get all 4 wheels off the ground and open a few valves. Nothing major, but I had to buy a couple of extra jack stands. Other than that, pretty standard as far as suspension goes...

    Cool. Good to know. Thanks guys. I've read that people have a tough time with the KDSS for some reason, but obviously have no first hand experience with it myself. I already have a shit load of jack stands so lifting all 4 wheels is no big deal. Guess I will give it a go

    put the truck back down on the wheels before trying to put the swaybar back on. Much easier from what I hear.
