Operation Crash Bandicoot 4x4 Swapped 05' Tacoma

Well it's gonna be a minute haha, haven't mustered the tools to do the install yet...

 

After much deliberation, i have decided on suspension, Just placed the order with DSM, great customer service because i had a shit ton of questions.

I picked up foxes for the front, and 5100's for the rear....

DSM has a killer deal today that just couldnt be beat


Fox Performance 2.0 Coilovers


And the5100s(2-2.5" lift) for the rear

Now i have my Katskinz leather seats on the way in addition to my new suspension on the way..

 

That's an odd combo.

 

Indeed, but for my purposes, it will do the job.

 

I just sent you a PM but wanted to send a post so the other TW guys would know that I think your really have a kool looking ride.

 

I appreciate it my man, it's not as built as the more popular rigs, but it does the job for me.

making a truck your own is hard work on your wallet

 

Damn my youthfulness... I've got to return the suspension i just bought.... >_>

I need to go OME all around. Thats all there is to it. .-. i spent a little around 840$ for the setup on the way, for 300$ i could have OME all around w/ Dakars, and i think that is what i'll do. The Chevy springs will just have to sit around or i could use them as an aal in addition to the dakars..

Impulse buying overided my months and months of research on my best setup... :-o never again.

 

Make up your mind man!

 

i'll buy the chevy springs from ya when ya ready

 

Well! i have changed my mind again!

After speaking with Micah he informed me i'd be able to switch coils when i do get armor in the front down the road. So im back being a happy goose, i was thinking i couldnt change my front coils from the ones they sent so i was screwed when i get armor in the front.... I am back good to go and my chevy springs are still mine

 

Look what just came to my door...

Katskinz

 

Except the 2 that are in VA

 

You so funny :0 my boy Matt has them and he's bringing them at the end of November. In December I hope to have my lift on as well as my katskinz leather seat covers with seat heaters and I'll go to the pickup an get it armourrd up

All I need now is my bed rack and my RTT and my tacoma is gonna be done for awhile....

Also I've decided to drop the billes and opt for the foxes in the rear as well. Gotta be legit

 

I've gotta admit, Micah at DSM is a standup guy. I've called a couple times to just make sure all is going well and to confirm that my setup will be just what the doctor ordered.

The foxes share the same coils as the 2.5 series so when it comes time for new armor, i'll just have to order more coils.

The rear foxes that are good for 2-3" of lift are originally valved for the FJ so i have requested from fox a custom set valved for the tacoma. Im stoked and at 109$/shock, it cant really be beat for what im gonna use them for.

These are gonna be in the front


These are gonna be in the rear


So hopefully before the new year i'll have my Fox suspension on as well as my katskin leather seat covers/w warmers..

Thanks Blake, i cant wait to get it all on...

 

Ahhhh yeah!

Suspension is here!!

Now I wait for my rear foxes to come in and I'm ready to lift this bad boy!

 

In other news I did the rear diff breather mod. Ran the breather to the taillight. I figure if waters that high I'm fucked lol

 

Didn't have a hose clamp? Had to use the Hello Kitty band-aid.
