2nd Gen 4x4 35s 3" Lift w/o BODY LIFT

Same deal here, no more high centering. Oh, you can see we had glass up front, didn't care for the fitment, ease of damaging and pain to put a snorkel on, once the fender liners are out the snorkel is good insurance.

Ok thanks for the answers a lot of good points. I guess I never contemplate trees bc I live in socal. If the trees are that close we usually find another way. Not to mention all the places you can access have been hit so many times trees or bushes rarely have time to grow in.

Furthermore I would just zip tie my glass on so rather than crack them the zip ties break and you can just pick up the piece and throw it in the back of the truck. That is what we used to do on drift cars so we didn't have to constantly replace. Say if you brushed a wall the glass would deform, pop the zipties, and fly off the track hopefully for you to grab after your run.

Personally I would rather have cracked fiberglass that I can replace or repair quickly with minimal tools versus having a large dent in my sheet metal that would need to be professionally repaired or remain there forever. Plus everyone knows what its supposed to look like. You could just cut out the damage in your glass and tell people its a brake duct lol.

 

. Dents are fun to talk about

 

adds charachter.

 

Yeah they do!

 

i did mine with a jigsaw and a bimetal blade. it works very good

 

I used a grinder. Pain in the ass.

 

Me too.

 

I used a grinder on one fender, after breaking my jigsaw blade. Word of advice, don't be grinding away with your wife's mini van parked a couple feet away

 

We match!


Who will have the first raisin'd 2nd gen taco?

Going to the hammers next year will put my new truck in the runnings. Daisy is still looking pretty straight

 

Any of you guys having issues with you check engine light going on anytime you are near water? Since I pulled the damn fender liners water keeps getting in the intake. Thinking a dorkel might be in my future

 

one day I will be on this list

 

Jackhammer and Sledgehammer are no place for a Tacoma.

 

I steered clear of water while my intake was exposed.

 

Just asking because I think it's relevant: How much of the pounding/chopping/cutting MIGHT be eliminated with say a 1" body lift? I' sure there'd still be a bunch, and I'm not doing it, but just thinking

 

I'm only adding a BL to help with the crawlbox/FJ case mod.

Bottom line: if you're going w/ 35's you're cutting.

 

pre sliders...... its how I get all da women

 

I should have asked: What trimming/cutting/pounding might be reduced? lol

 

Yeah it looks gnarly
