    Nice, are you using a dual battery kit or making your own?

    Got the Blue Sea ML-ACR. Haven't wired everything up yet though. Waiting on a couple more things and gonna do everything at the same time: dual batt set up, new HO alternator, and Big 3 (or probably 4) upgrade.

    I didn't have them cranked up to 3in and never noticed any problems but I'm sure if it was lifted more and with some aggressive off road driving they could potentially get damaged.

    Arite guys, I've put this on here a few times and have gotten some interest, but no one has come to pick it up. FOR FREE:

    (2) 285/75/16 BFG TA KOs with about 7/32" tread. (GONE)
    (1) 285/75/16 Nitto Terra Grappler with about 7/32" tread with OEM Off Road wheel powder coated black. (CLAIMED)

    Rear OME nitro shocks (with like 125k miles on them - not sure how much longer they'll last) (STILL AVAIL)

    If you're willing to hold the Nitto with off road wheel I will definitely take it. I might be in Campbell tomorrow and could try to head up your way.

    Where are you at exactly?

    I'm in Napa, but my bro in law lives in Albany. I don't mind cruising up to see what you got brewing, even lend a hand.

    I'm in UC, but that tire/rim is actually in Hayward @ my in-laws. Hit me up if you're gonna swing that way

    Come get em!

    Ok I'll know for sure later this week. I'll hit you up.

    PM'd back ;)

    Thanks MJ! Take a little, give a little. I've got four silver TRD center caps. Two of em are missing a clip or two, and I only have 3 outta 4 spring clips. They stayed on my wheels just fine though. Free to any TW member.

    Mmm don't go bigger than 3, you'll be fine. Take off your swaybars. I may have some coilovers to sell you this month or next, they're Donohue Racing which is Icons old name so they're the same thing.

    I would go with the front springs from a 91-97 landcruiser. There are different ones, but 8 wraps should be good and give about 4-4.5" in the back. For the front I'd go with 5100's and Toytec Eibach coils for a solid 3" lift. There are spacers, but not worth it and will ride harsh. If you can swing it get some coilovers.
