    Can't help on a shop, maybe Rock and Roll offroad, but they are pricey. Anyway welcome in advance to Texas, where are you from in Washington?

    I work in the defense world - supporting a environmental cleanup project at the Hanford site in Richland, WA. The Hanford site is where the government enriched Uranium to make Plutonium for the 2nd Atomic Bomb - here is a link on the history: http://www.youtube.com/user/HanfordSite

    Thanks for the tip. I will shop around and compare. Looking forward to the move! Hope to meet up with some other Taco owners when I get settle. I see a lot out in WA, most not modded.

    Hey Jstreet, contact fort worth champion spring near down town fort worth. I think they are on Henderson street. I am sure they can install the lift. Mike is a good guy and most of my family uses them for suspension work. They mostly deal with larger commercial trucks so a Tacoma should be no problem.

    Got my grill on this morning.
    I still need to paint the radiator with some high temp paint and relocate the horns but it looks so much better than that chrome garbage.

    I am in SW Arlington and don't really head to north Arlington too much. What part are you living in? I can tell you just about anything you want to know about Arlington, been here my whole life.
