    Shemicals I LOVE your 5 lugger!!! Its my motivation to do more things to my 5 lugger, but did you ever consider the BLHM before the spyders? just wondering your spyders look crazy cool by the way

    Actually i bought the spyders off of a buddy for a really good price so i threw those on and then i replaced them with BHLM lights but i did not like the look so i sold the BHLM and went with the spyders. If i get the chance i want to go with the gen 3 CCFL headlights. I like the chrome headlights because it keeps the truck from being too over the top

    I stopped around that area coming in and you can pull over anywhere and just offroad! i love it!

    Quick update to all ya'all fives

    I went to Orange County for christmas and had some fun down there in temecula and holy jims despite them flattening most of the trail. my truck had a huge christmas though and i got some great video of my trail runs that im going to edit and post soon.

    here are some snapshots of my trucks gifts

    Picked up my rear shocks down at SocalSuperTrucks

    [​IMG]

    The beastly beauties and my 4.56 gears

    Thanks to everyone who hooked me up with the parts and was willing to meet up to say hello.

    Kcbmx, MetalMiller, Tim at Glassworks, Casey at SST, Cody (NakedTacoma), and Steven (Stupidhurts)

    looks like 2012 is going to be fun....

    ALSO - ***Spoiler Alert***

    I plan on getting the American Motorsports Spindle Lift and a 3" shackle flip kit and a custom prerunner bumper/skidplate that will retain the factory bumper :)

    I don't really know him actually - i just sent a very formal email that i wanted the fiberglass and the caps but i wanted them at the old sale price (not black friday) and that i had an exact amount cash. I also told him i was only in town for 5 days and he gave it to me. pretty nice guy. just send him an email and be respectful, he is very busy as he stated. and mention Tacomaworld!!!
