    ^I'd say 3:30-4 would be perfect. Check with who else wants to go and we can work it out for everyone. ​

    ^:eek: I love the color matched fenders. . . Thats perfect armor for the malls when I cruise them.

    I'd love that and change the wheels to some Satin Black Walker Evans with Rad Red Beadlocks and satin black bolts. KR front bumper and a 32" LED light bar with a pair of 2" Dually lights. Take off that whole bottom area for the bumper like on mine. Replace the rear blocks and reinforce the weak point.

    Dam, thats not even my truck and I just spent a lot of money in a minute.

    Thanks Matt. Hay, come out to Salsa and Beer in Reseda this Saturday;)

    ^ Best one is the original Reseda location. The NOHO one is crazy packed and in the hood. Parking is a nightmare there. However its not that great at the Reseda one neither. ​

    Those dam trucks aren't cheap neither. . . Hows insurance on one of those bad boys. Never thought to look into it.

    ^ Thanks. You got it easy. You already have a 2012 Front end. I had to bust my ass to figure out how to get the conversion on mine. Thanks to the TW guys for the help.;)

    I don't think they're cheap to be honest. It falls into the Super Truck category if you get a jacked up agent. Then if you get an agent who doesn't know much, you can say you have a Ford F-150. Lol. My buddy got away with getting insurance on this Suzuki Hayabusa as a normal sports bike. . . :rolleyes:

    I'll get updated pictures soon. I was thinking of going to Barstow or Gorman this weekend. Some of the guys are going to barstow to test out their trucks but I can't justify the cost. My truck has a on going suspension issue right now that we can't figure out. I've checked everything. All bolts and uniballs. I've greased all the bushings. It makes a popping/clunk noise when turning. Tie rods are good too.

    Gorman is going to it thought as gas is killer to barstow for me.

    Yeah, I reinforced my LT kit buy selling it. My bank account is now very well protected. Best fab work I've ever done on the Taco;)
