    Ya know John, from looking at pics it looks pretty level actually, or is it just me ? (it might as well be me as usual ..my old blind ass !!:D )

    I think you were about an inch or so under stock height & now it looks like about an inch higher for a net gain of ...taaaa daaaa !! right at 3", WITH NO VIBES !! is this still correct ??:)

    just back from the shake down run in ocotillo, left half of my passenger side fender inner liner in the desert, and need to trim alot of the metal fender seams. Our extended trip in the ca and az dez ended early, too damn hot and too many things to clean up on the truck.

    it was 108 near the plaster mines to plaster city.

    may have to bite the bullet and do some smaller flare fiberglass from trailer products.

    Damn, I figured it'd be warm but 108 ? too damned hot for me fo'sho' sorry about losing your inner plastic, did you pick it up ? Hell I'd just leave it there....:cool:


    I'm joking of course..:D

    I haven't done a desert clean up run yet but I've built some MX tracks at Corral Canyon OHV volunteering some time with S.D.O.R.C. & I almost always stop & pick up shit along the trails wherever I go...:)

    ya it was 108 and 107 on 2 different temp monitors, not looking at the overhead console temp. it was a cooker. Ya Doug I picked it up and its in the trash, bought a new mini side grinder, a roll of sheeting, rtv tubes and tomorrow im gonna trim the inners, if that is not enough I call trailor products Monday and get a set of Fiber for the front.

    Ya Eddie, I think so, may have to equip the taco with lights for night ops for our prospecting efforts.

    Nice I will be doing a lot of night runs this summer. Having the extra light certainly pays off

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    Hi James howz it goin'?.. Yeah we threw a quick set together to cure Greg's constant bottoming & he wanted some lift to clear the dvrside rear qtr panel , typical toyota putting a wheel well where a tire goes...:laugh:

    running oem main with some semi progressive F-150 springs which of course has maxed out the 5100's frontwards & backwards, so he's def gonna need some upgraded extended dampening sticks haha!, they don't look like much (my springs rarely do) but we bounced about 500 lbs + one 60lb white Lab named Sadie on the axle half dozen times & it ramped up pretty quick with one deep compression stroke & with one single de compression stroke & stopped dead at the top.....perfect...:)

    [​IMG]

    EDIT: I should've referred to the qtr panel as drvside rear bed side

    60lb White Lab named Sadie vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv:D:D



    [​IMG]

    Just for anyones general info I weigh about 217 lbs & Matt weighs in at about 225 lbs so as we bounced the shit out of greg's taco jumping at the same time we were actually impacting at or a little over half a ton (1000lbs) per compression...

    (i.e; taking into account newtons law of gravity which is 1.5 times of body weight just to keep us from floating away haha but when impacting it goes to 2.5 - 3 X's IIRC, anyway its alot of weight hitting at once & of course the proofs in the puddin' ya know, so he'll bomb the shit out of them in Mojave & see if they hold up...
