    That's true for 3rd gen. Headstrong's data for a 2nd gen shows that 885 yields a 2.25" lift. The 887 is 2.5" for a Double cab 4x4. But post measurements were a solid 3” above the original measurement. I was aiming for the 2.25 in the front and 3 in the rear. But it hasn’t settled yet, so we’ll see where it ends up.

    Lots of stuff done. Adjusted my spc arms and lower cams to help with 35’s. Absolutely 0 rubbing on road and we will see what still needs to be adjusted for Offroad. Before and after pics below on adjustments.

    Looks good dude.


    How you liking the Milestars? Was thinking about them for my next set but I keep hearing mixed reviews.

    TRD grill for the snorkel is a nice touch.

    I was wondering, do you have Archive Garage Hammer Hangers on your rig? I know you're just as heavy as me if not more.

    Heh! Awesome, same!

    As of pretty recently. I added the mid leaf from a 2018 Tacoma to the stack, still plan on spec'ed Deavers eventually.

    Not sure if the newer ones are better but I got mine a few years ago and they were shit at keeping moisture out ... so be careful storing metal parts inside them.

    I put some extra sealant around the edges and haven’t had any issues so far. Boxes have been on truck for over a year.

    So what do you think?
    Kinda James Bond looking.
    Think these Icon wheels will hold on to 37s?
    Think I'll give them a try.

    Have one of the same. Keeps out most moisture even in the worst of rain storms pushing highway speeds. Great for recovery gear and I love the end latches the keep the entire lid uniformly, tightly closed.

    I'm too heavy mostly so Deavers speced to my needs will be better, Archive recommends speced dravers with the AGHH kit and the shock relocation (coming soon), that and I have mixed feelings about Icon in general.
