    Damn I dont know if I can wait that long. My truck sees 70 miles a day to work plus hunting every weekend is an additional 400 miles for 2 days.

    Truck was really not happy going to Imperial or back up grade with the fan running at lower power. Maybe I will wire fan into other battery for temporary fix if it can save me some money.

    Thanks for heads up, I never do black friday so didnt think about that.

    Agreed. My optima leaked, my buddies did too and it was mounted upright. Warrentied more optomas than anything when I worked at oreillys. I've had good pick with interstate. Duracell makes some nice TRUE leak free atm batteries.

    I heard same on the Optimas as well.

    Was just looking at Interstate stuff as well but wasnt sure which one to go with.

    I have a guy that used to work for us that left for Batteries Plus. Gonna give him a call and see what kind of hookups maybe exist.

    Thanks for suggestions.

    What spring rate is everyone running on an Extra cab Tacoma? My shocks and springs are pretty jacked up so I can't tell what they are from just looking at them.

    Thanks, Brian

    edit, if you happen to know a good place to start with valving that would be great also

    Why risk blowing a shim to save a tiny bit of money?
    DSM has King shims for $15 for TW members as does poly with DR discount.
