    So you have 4" maxtracs up front and 2" blocks in the rear? That's exactly what I have and it looks like you have a hell of a bulldog going with the front that high.....maybe just bc its a single cab? I have a little more up front but not that much......I'm going up another 2.5" within the next week or so :D can't wait!!

    We've been experiencing sub-zero temps the past couple days, and I mostly use my truck for short drives during the weekdays, less than 10 miles. So, to help my engine warm up faster and stay warm after it's turned off, I got a little creative with some insulated Sun Shades I picked up for cheap.

    The grill cover will help the engine warm up faster, and the hood blanket will help retain underhood heat, which'll help keep the engine warm between drives. Total project cost of $12 :cool:

    Prob is more dramatic on the shorter wheel base plus the pic was fresh of the jacks and pre alignment, it's settled maybe a 1/4 inch. Awesome! Going 5100 route?

    Well, the idea is it'll help reduce engine wear by running cold all the time. However, it should also help the heater produce warm air much faster.

    Got 4 new Bridgestone 265/65/17 Revo2 A/T tires installed today. Shopped around and the best price was from a Toyota dealership. BOCH. This is my third set of tires on this rig since new.

    As of now I'm thinking eibachs with 5100s set at .85 in the front.....or one 885 but I'm not sure how much lift the 885s give and whichever is the cheapest hehe. Not sure what I'm going to do in the rear either a 2" aal with my 2" block or scrap the 2" block and do a 4" block.......either way gotta get ext shocks in rear too!
