    You are correct.
    Bought the trailer last fall. It is actually built by Canada Trailers North of Aylmer. Was the last one on the lot and they don't build them with the 4" drop axle anymore so I was fortunate to get this one.
    There will be more pics in the future because I seem to be doing a lot with my Taco and new dump trailer.

    Not the OP.
    Have you looked into the RoadMaster Active Suspension system?

    Are these plug and play or did you have to cut the wiring harness and crimp connectors into place?

    Back in July, I posted some pics of these ammo can holders that my friend made for me that fit over the wheel wells.
    I had a lot of people ask about making them or getting the 3d print file for them.
    After some modifications to the design and a different plastic, I am happy with the design.
    My friend has graciously allowed me to post a link to the 3d file incase anyone wants to try their hand at making one.

    https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6184703

    Take into account that you will need to come up with hardware and there is room for improvement, but this should get you in the ball park.
    This file is for the cage, knobs, and the support arms. You also need a 3d printer or know some one with one.
    Also- these are sized to the MTM brand , 30 cal ammo can - not sure what else may or may not fit.

    If you are running RXT's, I'd suggest jumping right up to stage 3. You'll just be going back to put if in if you start off with stage 2. I don't have a lot of extra weight in the back besides my spare tires.. Come to think of it, I still have my OEM spare in the OEM spot as well... Beside that, I have RCI full steel skids, and RCI sliders. I don't find the ride harsh at all. I really don't like the idea of chasing a "level look". I like to maintain a factory stance when lifted and loaded. I figured it's only going to get heavier as I go, and I am starting off with a 130 lb. with the Alu-Cab Contour, so extra weight adds up quickly.

    Excellent!

    So the JBL GX328 tweeters are 2.3 ohm and shouldn't stress the amp hardly at all if the OEs are 2 ohm. Impossible to say how they compare to the DS18s without a side-by-side test, but I'd wager they are superior to the OE tweeters in any case. I installed some JBL Club tweeters in a Chevy pickup I had and they sounded good. That's what I'd go with if I had a JBL system.

    Thanks for that! :thumbsup:

    Interesting? You are aware that the exposed Aluminum will start to oxidize now.

    Pack of 5 of these off Amazon. Shared a few with co-workers for their rigs. Work perfectly for all of us. I added the grey cap.
    (They function off the ground side.)

    I would guess with all my gear, the drawers in my bed, rtt and awning on I'm about 700 lbs as well. I'm camping this weekend for the ojibwe forest rally this weekend, I can take pics and update you with how the leafs are holding up fully loaded if you'd like!

    Didn't do much driving post upgrade yet, but I assume having ~300 lbs in my bed full time like yourself will smooth out the stiffness from being on option 3

    I would highly recommend using this type of switch.
    https://amzn.to/3OT5JpM

    I've used those pin switches on my Tacoma's in the past and over time because of the exposed contact, they all became undependable.

    I prefer the sealed push button switch.

    Looks like someone is about to get some bigger shoes. What are you planning for air intake?
