    The prerunner vs 4x4 threads get old fast.

    Too poor to list anything interesting.
    I think I'm heading out to Hidden Falls in a month or so. But I'm pretty much mostly stock. After taking a look at some of the footage and photos from the last few runs y'all have been on, I'm not sure if I should order some skids or sliders. I can only do one #poorwheelerproblems

    I figured to get some skids, and not make all the obstacles. It'll be my first time there, so I'm not in a hurry to do it all.

    Get your sliders on first. By picking the right line you can avoid a lot of undercarriage damage.

    Awesome. Thanks for the info. I guess I better start contacting the vendors now to see if they have any in stock.

    Anyone have a good experience with an alignment shop in the SE Houston area? The place that I have been taking my Tacoma just cannot seem to get the alignment correct, so I'm not going back there. I called All Pro in Pearland; they wanted $150 with no warranty. Seems a little expensive

    I know right, I mean prerunners can go anywhere a 4x4 can. And I've never met a guy that regretted buying a prerunner and wish he would've gotten a 4x4...

    My sliders have been sitting in my garage for the last two months. I still need to weld them on.
    From my observations here on TW, if you want sliders within the next month you should go with BAMF of CBI. I bought the Relentless DYI sliders and it took me about 6 weeks to get them.

    That's way too expensive. I used firestone on my truck and they got it spot on every single time. Maybe I just got lucky with my local one but they did a good job

    Well, if I can't swing getting them in time, I'll stay in Houston and do some mall crawling.
