Idaho BS thread in the PNW

whats bear grass???? is that montana slang for green bud?

 

Ooooo straight sex right there!!!!

 

Like 50-75% of Idaho is on Mountain time. The line is north of Boise somewhere.

Mark and I are on Mountain time. Ben is on Pacific time though.

Gnarly! I wonder if that is headed this way or what!

Interesting stuff!

 

Just saw this on facebook! haha I'd be terrified of the thing flipping! Mine almost always sits nose down when I do that stuff...

 

Haha, no flex

 

yikes dude. Weird looking Colorado. Or is it a Canyon?

Those trucks are so low-slung, they ride really low to the ground.

 

No shit huh! What the hell is the spring rate on all the shit! That guy should get an award or something for least amount of flex on a truck ever. haha

 

Started talkin to dad about lifts today on the ride into town. Talked couple brands and styles but thought i'd get some suggestions on here. Will probably still be a lil while. I want no less then a 3" lift. More would be nice but yeah dont want all the extra stuff to do with liftin it to high. And how much are y'all findin the kits for? Found a few cheaper if you build your own kit but not sure so...

 

OME kit will be he best all around. Brady has 886 coils that gave him 3" or more up front.

 

Well you can go the really cheap route and do spacers and blocks... my advice is don't unless that is your only option.

I'd recommend 5100's up front which gives you a couple options, you can run your factory coils set at 2.5" which I hear makes for a stiff ride, you can set eibach coil at .75 (not sure how much lift that will give you though and might still be stiff, but not as bad as the factory coils), or the last option would be to throw some OME 885 coils on there set at 0 with the OME top plate spacer. Oz runs the 885's and he can tell you how much lift you get but that should be close to 3" if not 3". 3" is hard to hit on 2nd gens unless you want to dish out the big bucks for Icon, King, Sway-a-ways, or Fox coilovers (I don't recommend Fox on 2nd gens though.)

In the rear you could do a 2" add-a-leaf or you are looking at getting a whole new leaf pack. Although has yours had the TSB leafpack installed? Count your leafs, if there are 3 then no if there are 4 then yes. As for aftermarket leaf packs, there is allpro or OME. A lot of people recommend the OME Dakars. Ext length 5100's should do you just fine in the rear unless you have the money to get fancy.

 

Yeah OME is what I've been lookin at the most. Wish I could look at some of these on trucks before decidin.

 

She is an access cab so 886's may be a bit rough for her, not positive though.

 

Cruise the build threads. It'll help give you a good idea

 

Valid point...

 

Yeah. Since she is atleast a 4wd she might be alright. I feel bad for the Prerunner access cabs running 885's and 886's. I hear it's a bit rough for them. haha

 

Also will depend in if she ever want a bumper too or winch.

 

Yep. More money though. haha One thing at a time man.

Could always jam my 5100's on Cameron's Taco and see how it feels. haha

 

lol yes a winch in time.... whenever thatll be!
