I wish I could trust myself with LT. I already drive to fast with my MT set ups...............

 

After seeing the clips of @snowsk8air2 s wife’s? 4Runner on a properly tuned MT I thought about that but I cream over a wide LT with glass. Can’t help it. I drive too fast as it is on stock

 

Yeah we can all dream of all the toys! But at the end of the day I still can do 70+mph on dirt roads and float over everything I do. I dont do whoops or chase the baja so I am happy at MT and save the money for other bad decisions.

 

I generally stay away from anything the Insta-influencer drones are peddling...

 

I would do it right off the bat but I also wanna play sooner. I could always buy the MT for the front, and start putting together the rear as LT, collect the front components over time and rock the MT till it’s complete then sell my MT kit and make a little money back.

 

I'm doing the same thing. I have a stout front MT with TC Uppers and Lowers.

 

Just do the JD Fab SUA and be done with it. Your not spending much more than a good SOA setup and it will save you the money and time of buying shit and eventually landing at the JD SUA anyways. It will keep up with anything you end up with in the front.

 

Yeah I was looking at the JD sua kit not too long ago

 

I've done my suspension twice...so far

 

Just buy 3 times and cry 3 times. Then chop things apart and redo them. Then redo it again and at least one more time lol.

I think I’m on like version 3.5-4 on the front and 5 or 6 on the rear

 

Also in this camp. Ive put my truck completely back to stock after lifting it, thinking I was going to sell it, then kept it and lifted it again. In fact, Im on my 3rd iteration after going back to stock so that means I swapped 5 times. And its going to change again here soon after my behavior on black friday...

 

Same.. lost count how many times the front end has been changed and rebuilt over the years. Pretty happy with it as of now with all the recent upgrades and getting my alignment dialed and locked in. Giving the rear some more love now though.




The new DRT hangers have been fantastic on and off-road. Next up is a relocate and new Kings for the rear.

 

@XPOTRPR Did you play out in Bulldog Canyon for these pics? I helped get a buddies sxs out with a broken tie rod on saturday.

 

@Yacob_D

No, when the OEM lower mounts were ground off and the new lower mounts were welded on, no fluid came out of the axle, nor were the axles removed. I don't think @snowsk8air2 has ever drained an axle when installing a relocate kit, but I could be mistaken.

I was a few weeks away from swapping gears, which require a fluid drain, so I wasn't concerned. However, at 18,669 miles my fluid was in excellent shape, so I don't think the heat from grinding and welding had any impact on the fluid, at least from a visual perspective.

 

Awesome, Makes me wanna pull the trigger even more! Thanks

 

Me too. Except I want a skottle. Got to use mikes when we went up to pick up our gfc and camp for the week. Holy shit was it easy to use and clean.

Yep you could very much do that!

You sure do. And boy is it sexy!

 

We did a quick overnight wheeling/camp trip out near the Gila Friday night.

 

Well I’m glad I asked you guys about the icons. I’m normally not a brand whore but there’s just something about Kings that are just…sexy. And DK Fab…come on.

I just saw the stage 10 icon and thought it was a good deal at $4,500 but I’ll wait. It’s just a year for medic school then I get a decent bump hahaha
