    I kind of wonder if I do... My Taco has had a 1.5" Taco lean since I put the front lift on. May have been there before then but I never noticed it until then.

    i could believe brady bent his. Not a full boxed frame and he has not so smartly hucked it multiple time without the proper equipement.

    You Mark..idk..anything is possible though.

    Before I bought the truck the guy said he was rear ended by a Subaru, all it did was bend the bumper a bit, but I'm guessing it tweaked the frame a bit though

    Hey so back on the Pioneer head unit. I've narrowed it down to 1 but the thing is it's a size 7" compared to a 6.1" -- is this gonna be too big?

    I'm leaning toward this one in case you were wondering:
    http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_63977_Pioneer-AVH-X5500BHS.html


    It gets all around good reviews and seems to have everything I'm going for :)

    yea it should fit. Stardard width still as a single din. Just as a double its twice as high so you loose the little area for..whatever..or switch panel. Why i don't have a double..

    Monte! Can we tub my truck in a day? If by some chance I was able to get to Jackson hole a day early or something, what if I drove to your place to do it? But didn't you say you were only around till the 13th? The 13th is when I would probably get there

    It's good BS tho :D

    And actually I've been going through it trying to decide how to link stuff..I'd bump it up to 20 pages of build :p haha

    Yea we could do it in a day I bet. Ill know for sure once I do it myself just before then.

    But yea class starts for me the 15th I believe. And it takes 19 hours of driving to get there so I'd probably leave the 13th..

    Ill double check the dates for you though.

    And where you getting 35s? Haha or we using mine to measure and you just wanna tub?

    Sorry man. Casses start the 13th. I have to leave the 11th

    Damn my break is short.
