    Build thread in sig... 4-link long travel
    Maybe (a very big maybe) 1 in every 10 people on this site who ownTC ucas actually need a UCA like that.

    We had a big discussion about it over the last week in the mid travel BS thread. Check out my build thread and what I do to my Tacoma and take into account that I probably weigh 1000lbs over most rigs on here (I am close to 6000lbs when I am loaded up for wheeling). I have abused the hell out of them over the last year and a half and they have held up just fine plus as Colin showed in the MT BS thread they have more travel in them than an MT setup can achieve anyway so they won't limit travel.

    Thanks BradyT88. You're build is awesome btw. After seeing your's i think the LR UCA would be fine for me considering you are doing some hardcore things that I will not be doing. I think that would be a better fit for the price and for what I intend.

    Appreciate it.

    You're welcome man! Personally the price difference between the LR's and the TC's is pretty hard to justify for most people on this site.

    Avoiding bed for some reason... Gonna be spending the next few days on trains, so I should probably go to bed. Fargo tomorrow, then to Minneapolis, then possibly Chicago, and then back here. Gonna be a bunch of hotel stays and a lot of miles.

    You don't even wanna know the shit I would have to do... especially me being an officer in the cab during that. There would probably be an investigation just because. Dont put that on me :p

    And yes of course in the cab. I work for BNSF, not AMTRAK. :p

    Even though we do run a passenger train a couple times a year for community events.

    Hey man saw one of your exhaust videos on youtube while looking up which exhaust i wanna go with.

    Now that I'm part of the Boost club.. how are you liking the your Aero 2525 and S/C combo?

    been thinking of picking one up and using stock piping.

    I am more than happy with the power that it provides. That being said, I am not sure if I am getting old or what, but I am tossing around the idea of changing it up to both A) unleash a bit more power and B) tame down the sound a bit. If I were you, I would probably just start off with the 2525xl and we can work from there. The 2525 is brutally loud by itself, especially if you remove the rear cats as well. I really need to make a new video, as the videos that are on YT are not representative of what it sound like now haha. It's much more burly sounding now. It would be a little deeper if I was running 3".

    what would you recommend as far as piping? was planning on just cutting out the stock, muffler, and welding the Aero in its place, leaving everything else stock.

    and totally forgot they make the XL with the internal resonator. thats definitely what ill be going with.

    Yes I did. It wasn't impossible, but it certainly wasn't the easiest thing I have ever done. Just really technical is all. If you can commit some time to the project, not skip steps, and have basic technical knowledge you can do it yourself. Mine aren't perfect, but I did some experimenting haha.
