    Hey guys I was just wondering if any of you have noticed prices on 2010 thru 2011 4x4 DC TRD Off Road's around the state? I've found one with low miles but I'm not sure about it.

    I'm considering trading.

    I actually have a jeep now. Imagine that.
    trading a 2010 for a 2010? Just lock what you got.

    I could do that.

    I found a 2010 around here with 26,000 miles on it and it's a 4x4. I should have said 2010 thru 2011.

    Yes trading a 2010 for a 2010 is not ideal, but I would be trading up instead of laterally in my particular case.

    Locking what I've got is the better way to go....thanks.

    Haha! Man, you really know how to put things to get people to jump right in to help you. I would, but can't this weekend. I tried to loosen my lower once and I can tell you it will take a cheater.

    I would prefer to lock mine than trade just to lock it. I like knowing all the skeletons that are in my trucks closet. The only reason I would consider it would be if I thought something mechanical was wrong with mine. Miles on this truck shouldn't be an issue. The more miles it gets and the more little things that happen with it, the more I will be willing to do with it.

    I don't have a garage or I'd be in.. however I will be in your neck of the woods sometime Saturday. I usually travel to Tennessee at least once a month to cave with some friends. I loosened my lca's when I "built" my coilover, wasn't too bad at all. Swapping them out could be a different story though :notsure:

    I should probably buy new bolts and alignment cams also.. better safe than sorry.

    I'd rather have an ARB than an e-locker anyway. I second this statement. After I got mine I had a little bit of buyer's remorse since pretty much the only thing that the TRD package got me (that i ended up leaving on the truck) was the e-locker and seats. Don't know that it was worth it, but I did like those seats.

    Hey Justin, what flip kit did you get exactly? You had to weld bumpstops - there's no way to avoid that?

    got the allpro flip kit, you can avoid wleding the stock bumpstops on but you will either need to get creative attaching them or pay a couple hundred dollars and get the timbren kit.

    On the allpro page for flip kits, it is right above the picture. Says to call if you want to add them.
