    Question for the resident closet remodeling guru: I have Camburg 4" spindles with bilstein 5100s set at 0.85 with stock coil springs, BUT my truck only measures out to a little less than 3" higher than a stock Tacoma. So why do y'all think my struck sits so low? I think my coil springs are just sagged out cuz they have over 137000 miles on them. I just want yalls opinion on the issue.

    Your signature link is very misleading, and my volume was at the maximum too. :eek:

    Ok, cool. Then it should be a relatively easy fix.

    LOL Sorry - I never knew there was sound to that page since my laptop speakers are blown out. As for the "misleading" part... well that is how a trap works. I put out the bait and see what "people" bite. :D


    So - you think there is some secret way to lift your truck AND increase your MPGs? lol

    The mods didn't get rid of it; I just wanted some new bait. It linked to a "how do I know I'm gay" page. I did get a few comments over it - mainly people laughing about it.

    Tried to put my new leaf packs on the Taco, looks like I have to cut my tailpipe, I had the overload taken off the stock pack and ready to mount, but I decided to do it Sunday, put it back to stock so I can drive to work in the AM. Then worked on the 4runner.

    dont feel bad Blake. I took about 1000 pics one night at the Ranger game with my old SLR. I kept none of them. Sometimes I would start shooting stuff and it seemed like every picture turned out great and other times it was the opposite.

    I learned A LOT from sitting around the house one day reading the manual and trying each thing out as I read it.
