    It was more of a dull hum in the cab around 40MPH and over 75, it turns out to be the Driverside from Axle/CV diff bearing and a common theme in lift Tacomas. The ARB solution addresses some design flaws and takes that issue out of the equation. Plus I still can use A-TRAC and then if need be lock the bish and just go up.

    Yeah, shortly after the wheel was invented, the 5100's i have on now are for 2nd gen 5 lugger, I needed shocks & Ryan was nice enough to give them to me , they're valved too soft for my chevy springs & the shaft is somewhat smaller in diameter than the 5125's i had for 1st gen, although they've got about the right amount of travel (around 10") So another friend of mine gave me some old Ranchos & not my shock of choice but the dampening is decent & the same as far as travel goes...

    Boredom & curiosity play huge in this & the whole process is easily reversible ('cause I know I'll change back to single upgraded billies)

    Okay so I'm taking my dual sport bike out to the CC run instead of my truck because I want it to be ready for Glamis. Anyone heading out from San Diego Saturday want to be my pack mule for some gas? My range is only 120miles so I would like to have one of my fuel jugs on hand filled.
