    I had to look it up. Looks awesome! The springs will settle a bit, yeah? Are you gong to lower it more? So much coilover! :eek:

    How's that donated 4D's fund looking? :D

    Awesome mark. Just awesome. Can't wait to see it in action.

    It is sitting pretty low already, its deceiving with them IFS trimmed fenders... The goal was 5" uptravel so I assume Mark will drop it to that spec. 4D fund is nearing 35 cents :D and I don't think the springs will settle at all, they are coils.

    Unfortunately no shake down run... so the shakedown will be our wheeling trip in KY this coming weekend :eek: Just think, if Mark's rig doesn't make it alive from the trip... he's gotta drive my turd home :eek: haha BUT THAT SHIT WON'T HAPPEN :D:D

    Those are also 4Ds... With ZERO uptravel... They may settle a 1/4" but they aren't like leafs.

    Hell, the small coils on my WE settled a good 1/2" - 3/4". Resulting in the front end sag of an inch or two.

    Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.
    my baja coils have settled about 1/2" in ride hieght from new

    I'm sticking with my 1/4" Y'ALL SEE :D Besides, he's getting new springs... too stiff (no pun). Can't adjust preload anymore or the coils will have none to begin with.
