Colorado B.S. Thread

so i just ordered some stuff from Amazon, maybe moving my hi-lift, either to my light bar on the front of the truck, on my roof rack, or maybe rais it up and put it near the cab. I was sleeping in the bed of my truck and kept hitting it. dont want to tear my sleeping bag on it, or the mattress, so im looking at different options. any other ideas? anyone ever seen one on the front of a taco?

 

I say roof rack !!!

 

Anyone got a set of shocks and springs they arent using? I talked to toytech about the rake on my truck and they said it looks like my front coils are shot.

 

It just depends on the year if it was like last year thanksgiving time wasnt even snow

 

exactly. We have seen snow as early as late sept and as late as late nov. But I have a feeling this winter is going to hit late october pretty strong. And lots of big snow storms throughout

 

ive got some. They are from an 09 and have 32,000 miles on them

 

I hope so I want some blizzards this year !! its been a couple years since we have had some big snow storms
with snow wheeling you want fresh powder snow cause if it gets to packed and drifted it becomes a shovel and winch fest

 

I have my stock 06 TRD Sport springs and I also have a set of OME 885's that I am looking to get rid of as well if you are interested.

 

Are the 885's a stiffer Spring or does it add any lift? Right now my fronts are about 1" lower than where it should be. My buddy at work has the same spacers and same size tires as me with stock Trd shocks and struts and his taco sits an inch higher in the front. I'm just thinking about an inch higher up front will eliminate the low front end and help with a little more clearance to stop my tires from rubbing. I already trimmed a shit ton and still rub on dips when turning.

Who ever is willing to let some go the cheapest I'm game. I just hope slapps can help with throwing them on even of it costs some cash! Pm me a price and I'll let you know. Heck I'll even buy the rear shocks if you got em. The guy who had the truck before me put cheap ass shocks that are 2" to short in the rear. Cuz he thought it would ride smoother.

 

I don't wanna go too high since I can't afford new uca's right now.

 

Here are the specs for all of the OME springs. I bought them from a guy that had them on his truck for about 15,000 miles and took them off for the stiffer spring. I never got around to putting them on because I got a killer deal on the 886's. I am looking to get $80 for them just to get them out of the garage, I bought them for $100.

 

And believe me when I say that when the coils indicate for 110lbs of additional weight, it is still not nearly as harsh of a ride as those spacers!!! I started off with the Revtek lift, hated every minute of it other than the look.

 

What a tard.
