Alabama thread!

Possibly.

 

This is what Im thinkin about gettin with my tax back money+overtime paycheck. anyone have any experience with these? or know how hard it would be to install myself?

 

do the kit with the 885's and nitro shocks, you can give toytec a few extra dollars and they will include new top plates and ship them assembled so it is a simple swap. then decide on your rear lift and you can bring it to me and i can throw it on in around 3 or 4hours. brian will tell you the time for sure to be honest he is the clock watcher im not. but you will be runnin the same susp setup that most of us are now.


are you 4wd??? i cant rem.

 

They're not hard to install. I recommend pulling the coilover assembly and taking it somewhere to have the coils put on. I've got the 885's with OME shocks, and really like the ride qual. I will say mine seems to ride better with the 285's than with the stock wheels and tires. It was like they were over dampened for less unsprung weight or something. It's a little firm, but when you air down to like 14 psi off road, the nice cushy tires + OME suspension rides as perfect as you could get.

The AAL's should be cake. Truck on jack stands, drop the axle, c-clamp leaf packs, remove center pins, unclamp, new leaf in, clamp, new pin in, reassemble U-bolts, done.

 

Nope im 2wd. sounds good man. once i get this garbage handled from having my identity jacked and stuff. once i get that fixed and my tax refund/overtime check ill get it ordered and let ya know

 

ok if you are a prerunner and have the new coils preassembled i can swap out the front in about 45 mins and give me about an hour for the aal or half hour if you for some reason decide to go with a block. may want to talk to brian and get him involved and then you wont have to drive to b'ham and sit outside in a driveway to do it.

 

Bilstein and toytec FTW!

 

got my new badge in the mail today and threw it on my BrianOshi. ive got a red one, black one, and im in the process of painting one white but the white one will just have "TACO" not the full tacoma. ill have 3 options to swap between but so far i think the red is my favorite

 

what did you do with the big TOYOTA one that you had? did you have one of those?

 

I did. until my little brother broke it while i was repainting it lol

 

SON OF A ............ ok i was just curious cuz i was gonna work a trade with you. i have 2 or 3 tacoma badges laying around somewhere i would have traded ya for that one big toyota. so you could have even more color choices...... cuz i think you need more color choices.

 

sweetness. what kind of tires did you end going with or what kind are you going to go with

 

I've been wanting those for some time now! LOL! I always talked myself out of them.. They are going to look good though!

 

well ive got one black one red and one white now haha idk what other colors i would need

 

Hey Caleb nice options going with that setup will look good been looking in to this lift set up wat kind of rear lift and shock you going with

 

probably the 2in add a leafs

 

Yakima going on next weekend.

 

what setup? im plannin on gettin the crossbars eventually

 

Went with the Guard Dog M/T's 315/70/17. Did a ton of research on these before making the decision. Nothing but good reviews. To top it all off, i already have an offer for my old wheels and tires which happens to be a bit more them i paid for the new ones.

They would look damn sexy on a red truck!
