    Woodnick, Monte's dad runs STT's. Granted they're 32's I think but he could tell you how he liked em too.

    i don't think there will be a problem finding a good home for MTRs with ~8000 miles on them

    I've been thinking about those tires too.. Just saw a review on them in 4wd magazine. I'm sure you'll get them before me so I'm looking forward to seeing how you like them compared to mtr's

    was going to get dakar again, but i'm going to give the new Toytec Boss leaf pack a shot

    http://toyteclifts.3dcartstores.com/NEW-BOSS-05-Tacoma-Leaf-Springs_p_1094.html

    they're a bit longer than the dakar and lower of a ride height...so with the shackle flip it'll be interesting to see how it works out...

    i can either run the other ATO mount i have that originally gave my dakars too vertical of a ride angle, or go with longer shackles

    ride angle with the dakar on the other set of ATO mounts i have...

    shackleflip-24_zps71ab2969_a30f114fb0868529a73803548905dcf7cc08847a.jpg

    so with a longer leaf pack, these may work...or i get some longer shackles to go with the longer leaf pack to keep the angle better with the current mounts...

    current ride angle

    Nice!

    So was your old Dakar pack just shot or did you break it?
