    Just keep an eye on your cams and tell them to. I would be amazed if Wharton hasn't claimed them by now. My tabs are still bent from before I replaced the bolts.

    Ahhh yea. Those are fancy. I like how it gets welded back to the support and stiffens it up. I can have them made right quick. Hopefully my buddies waterjet is up and running now. If not, you can do a lot with an angle grinder.

    I don't trust them and even tell them the torque specks for the cam tab bolts and then inspect the hell out of my truck including chalk test after, but to this point they haven't screwed up yet. The same guy also does it each time which I'm sure helps.

    He told me lifetime from Firestone for lifted trucks is no longer offered. I wonder it that's true because it's still on their website. Either way 4 alignments with more to come for $170 is a good deal.

    If you were closer my truck would always go to you :)

    I just bought my lifetime alignment back in August. Firestone by me has always done good work. Might be because I probably have the nicest vehicle they see (and I'm not saying I have a nice vehicle).

    Why would I need to re-gear? 33.3" tires like your running now will be just fine with 373's. You have to remember my truck see's almost 30k of on road use per year and I enjoy doing 80-90mph from time to time :D

    I don't need a front locker on a DD nor the carnage that comes with them. I have yet to not make it to a place a locked Tacoma goes - I just get delayed on off camber opposing hole/bump hill climb trails. I would just rather not beat my truck when following locked rigs.

    If anything I would get 410's from a stock reg cab, but I like doing 2400 rpm at 75 mph with my 373's. This is my first vehicle ever (15 years driving) that doesn't have 410's or higher.

    well they state 34" on the TW tire cal, but that thing is apparently way off and I was wrong. They are bigger then a standard 33" but smaller then a 34". I guess kinda like my 31's now are really bigger then 31's.

    lol...I do that speed regularly (at the track of course) :D

    I have yet to need any locker so having just the rear will get me where I need to go. I'm not trying to keep up with buggies or the Johnson's lol

    I'm too poor for that stuff.
