^^^^ thanks Drew appreciate it buddy! I took your advice (and 06Haole) and ordered the 700# Icon Springs. Hopefully I won't be smashing my fenders as much in the desert now

 

and just curious...how much are the OEM tacoma lowers vs. the $1600 TC stock length lowers?

 

So, did a dumb task tonight. Dumb because it was alot of work just for a wore to hell bearing. Like always, nothing goes how i had it laid out in my head and i spent way longer on this than i wanted to, but it's done. Couldn't find my snap ring pliers for starters and that's the kind of night it was...

Anyways, here's a vid that explains what was going on, they were really jacked up and did NOT want to come out without a fight.

Sick build man! Just read most of it! Im out in Idaho Falls with a few other t4r guys. We should get some wheeling trips together, ive never wheeled in Wyoming

 

Oh yeah?! I am in Idaho Falls now too.

 

Orly

 

Well I moved here the 30th of June, but yeah I'm back now yesterday was my last day of my 3 weeks in the field.

 

Wb. Never been to idaho. Have been within a few miles of its eastern boarder though

 

Brady, Moab needs to not be our only get together this summer...

And heck yea Connor let's for sure get together before snow flies! I'll try to keep this thread updated with where I'm going a few weeks ahead

 

Hey Marc when you installed your bumper, did you have to shim it at all to get a parallel line with the fender? Installed mine on Friday, but it was a crude install since I was out of time, so I gaped and lined it up as best I could.

 

I was in Wyoming about 2 hours ago! Haha my wife and I camped out just north east of IF and decided to go see thr Palisades and turned around at the junction in Alpine. About 80 minute drive back home from there for me.

 

I didn't. We stopped at the damn took a couple pics and then just enjoyed the view while we rolled down the highway to Alpine.

 

I'm at least here until July. After that it will depend on where I find a job.

 

Oh rearry?!

 

My wife and I have a room reserved in Yellowstone on the 30th of August.

 

Me too but it's a weekend. That's a bit of a drive for a weekend for you though.

 

Hey Drew, no shims needed for mine. I left a half inch between bodylines and the bumper and I still touch under flex...

 

So I don't really know where to wheel in WY (or around here yet for that matter, besides Shelly or St Anthony), but it doesn't seem like there is much in between us for wheeling...

 

Explored MT this weekend.
