    I have a 2017 Tacoma OR with 2.5's fox resis and Icon RXT pack. Would it be a solid upgrade to go with the title's package or should I wait to go true long travel?
    I would be putting 14" shocks on the back along with the cross tube connected to the HH.
    I was doing some digging and besides the cost pushing back a kit from dirt king or DMZ it would also require a few other upgrades such as a engine and bed cage that I was thinking of doing while running the Archive kit. Alternatively I'm not sure doing all that will give good results either.
    My driving style I think is pretty typical, I prefer fast stuff but do some slow rock crawler stuff sometimes. I just am looking to go even faster and tone down the axle wrap and bottoming out.
    Thanks for any input or opinions.

    The full Archive Garage treatment should be more than enough for you and I highly highly recommend it.

    Sweet, I'm looking to put the icing on the cake until I can swing full long travel.
    I'm just curious now what people do for a spare tire carrier.

    Bed rail mount, bed cage, swing out bumper, bike lock through the wheel and just lay it in the bed.

    Prolly just throw it in the bed like I used to.
    Just three more questions.
    1. Would I need to do anything with the fenders?
    2. What is a good set up for carrying tools?
    3. What do you recommend for a light set up?
    I was also wondering what set up your running.
