    Brah, it's simple, suspension, always suspension! Speed aint good if you aint got no handling. Have you not already learned this from watching Topgear? Plus minimal hp gains for what 500 dollar?

    Did you not read my post in the lowerdz BS thread? It is night and day, on the harsh quick bumps like speed bumps it is firmer, on the freeway/roads the drive is softer, and through the high speeds the truck grabs. So much so I need to get a swaybar on the rear now to stop the kick out and body roll. Not the best terminology/explanation but you get my drift. You can stay low, they have 2" of adjustment in them already. If you want to be lower then that we can do spindle spacers for you to get the rest of the drop out you want. And yeah you cheap bastard, get the Q's in the rear.

    Nice
    Indeed, what day did we agree on, sorry bro been a rough week.
    LOL, finally sold you on it
    Wheels off in and on in about 2 hours. Then a couple drives around the block and some adjustment afterwards, and then an adjustment a few weeks later once the springs settle.

    I loved my lowered taco but it just wasn't as practical around here plus it didn't meet all of my needs. I miss that thing most days though.
