    That's awesome, and we all know your parents house/barn/storage has a plethora of Yota parts and vehicles...both running and non-running

    Will say his rack is nicely built, real sturdy

    icons are definitely in worse shape but they'll be fine when they're rebuilt

    I'm into everything pictured like $850 I think

    That's cool though that you're looking.

    I give you a lot of shit, but I knew you'd be saving your money for a real investment.

    Hope you find something decent!

    Doesn't that buy like 3 acres, 2 meth labs, and a partridge in a pear tree?

    Having rebuilt 4 brands now (ADS, King, SAW, and "whatever-Toytec-is-currently-rebranding") I can tell you that (a) they are all strikingly similar and (b) the tiny shafts and measly amounts of oil in 2" shocks compared to 2.5" is insane.

    Not that my word is somehow better than Zanes, since he's the guru.

    eh.. 300k gets you around 20 acres where im looking. but most of the good land is taken. im like 400k max for a home.. but even that. i really dont want to spend. i'd be happy with 5-10 acres and a small house.. build a large pole barn

    Yeah, I just meant for aesthetics (match all around).

    I've had 2.5's on the Tacoma and 4Runner, just that I'm running 2.0s on the Land Cruiser.

    It's really nice still, but I'd like to find a set of 2.5s or 2.0s with reservoir that I'll rebuild.

    What 2.0 did you rebuild? The shafts are the same size on my 2.5 as my 2.0. I have to imagine the amount of oil is less though but it could possibly be the same considering I have the extended resis. And I'm no guru, just a guy that works on his garbage. Also I don't recall talking about 2.0 at all so you're not stepping on any toes
