    Toytec ULK, Light Racing UCA's, OME Dakar rear leaves, ARB Bumper with XRC8 winch, Good Year Duratracs 285/70/17's on 17x9" Level 8 Strike 6's. Leer cap in the winter. Pioneer Double Din with BT, iPod, etc. Boston Acoustic components in all 4 doors with a Sony amp, powered 8" sub. Ultra gauge, Tom Tom...
    I went with the Toytec ULK. The front springs were installed as they arrived in the box. It's supposed to be between 2.5" and 3". I am assuming there will be some settling even before the bumper and winch are added.

    I love the look of your truck. I've seen your wheeling photos and am impressed with the abilities. My future goal is an air locker in the front. I am leaving the LS in the rear for drivability. I'm not going for anything hardcore, just mild trails and suck. I have a handful of friends that bring their buggies to Rousch Creek a few times a year. I'd like to hit some of the easier trails just to see.

    As far as bumper/winch weight, I still have a lot of adjustability to my coilovers. I figure I caan easily get another inch or so out of them. Can't wait to get the bumper on. My winch is coming from PORC in Georgia, they are a little behind in shipping due to the weather. Time will tell.

    Your truck does look super f***ing sweet man!!! I'd love to get the ARB bumper primarily to deflect kamikaze deer, but also for its off road capabilities and bad ass looks. The only thing that I don't like is how the solenoid mount for the winch covers up the Toyota emblem on the grill... I'm one of the guys that is actually proud to show off the factory emblems.

    Just installed my Scangauge II with Blendmount. Man, the blendmount was a tight fit for a 2010 TRD Sport mirror. But with some careful bending and adjusting it looks awesome. The scangauge works great and it is a lot of fun to see the info. I have always been annoyed that the Tacoma didn't have fuel mileage as part of the compass/temp display. Now I know everything about my fuel consumption!

    Lol, guess I'll be going with ARB then. I do like the chrome accents and the skid plates on the Shrockworks bumper though.

    Oh, and I also just had my oil changed and put on a Toyota bug deflector. I just can't stop adding things to my truck!!!

    Local #1 huh? That's awesome man... I'm Carpenters local #604 here. Union Pride.
