    0mm 4.5" backspacing, when I'm at full lock it comes ridiculously close to the uca but it definitely clears. There's a bunch of places it comes really close but they're all problems I can solve pretty easily, especially when the new bumpers on

    There's a place in Stoughton on 138, just north of the town center. It's on the left. While you're there stop in at he Brazilian BBQ place.

    The first owner of my Tacoma used them, so I don't know anything about them. The tint is okay on my truck.

    I like it! Any reason in particular that you built it that high off the floor?

    Its definetly not necessary but I do have a few reasons.

    1. This is in a dining room, so the curb would help keep people/kids/dogs ect from accidentally getting burnt
    2. The floor isnt even close to level, its off 1" over 3 ft so it would look odd if it was shorter
    3. I just like the look better

    Oh yeah, I can see exactly where too haha. Definitely gonna trim fender among other things but the driving characteristics are not much worse than the wildpeaks honestly. I'm guessing the wildpeaks were heavier than advertised, and these scs' shave off 4 to 5 pounds on top of that.. we'll see how I like factory gearing down the road but I'm pretty content right now

    51 degrees where I am. Supposed to rain/snow and temperature drop overnight, but we'll see what really happens.
