    I don't live in a place where I have options. I changed UCA's and gave the guys the info on what to expect from Total Chaos. Truck handles great and I believe Tom when he says they got it within spec-shady... maybe more like small town. Whatever system they use doesn't print. For the past 15 years I have been able to live with that and not had issues, and... everyone for 50 miles around knows these guys are the best. I can live with that (cuz I kind of have to...)

    Yeah, us small town fellers don't have much in the way of options. Always jealous of all the guys who are like, "Yeah, I went to my local off-road shop who knows Toyotas. Then I hit up my driveline guys on the way home to pick up my new driveshaft." I have to drive an hour one way just to have someone competent mount and balance my wheels....

    Remember when you guys were talking about tire pressure and what pressures are best? Well obviously my way is the best because I'll have a tire pressure for every occasion :rofl:

    Glad my 4R doesn't have that display. My OCD wouldn't allow me to accept the different numbers.

    They don't. Or, they didn't until very recently. My '19 doesn't.

    The only display that I find is the low tire pressure icon.

    Late to the party here haha. Owned my Tacoma since early 2017 and never realized there was a Wisconsin Tacoma thread. Haven’t been overly active on the forums but am becoming more engaged because I’m curious about the new 4th gen “2024” but at the same time I love my 17. By far the best vehicle I have owned. I do all routine maintenance on it, and have almost 89k trouble free miles!

    Welcome! For being one of the less populated states we have a pretty active forum with lots of good guys in here that off-road together and do meetups fairly often.

    Look forward to it! I don’t really off road, just trails up north and such. I keep my truck clean haha. But would look forward to meets, I always like a good road trip.
