    Thanks

    I think I am either going to order black Addict Center Caps or just leave them off.

    I dont think I will like it with the chrome ones on there

    That would be great! I'm debating either to go with Camburg Spindles and Bilstein 5100's or just go with the OME 3" kit... This has sealed the deal for me, 6" it is. :)

    that sounds like a nice setup. a little advice is to spend the extra coin on rear leafs. its a much cleaner install and helps with axle wrap.

    Gotcha, good to hear. I plan on going with a full leaf pack for the back. Does your truck have VSC? I saw that Fabtech's don't work with VSC on the 09-10 Tacoma's. Again, truck looks great! :thumbsup:

    if you are ever at a meet and get a chance to ride in a URD MKII X-runner, you are in for a real treat :D

    My X would blow the doors off of this Dcab, but I didnt have any intention of this truck being "fast"

    Oh yes, that would be a treat for sure. :D

    Are you going to regear with this lift/tire combo anytime soon?

    not anytime soon with 33s. Honestly, if I stay with 33, I probably wont.

    With the S/C, pulley, X1, and headers, the truck has more than enough balls to get it going

    if I go to 35s in the future I will swap it to 4:56

    150 mile review on the suspension.

    It rides fricken great. Not bouncy or super stiff at all. I think it feels better than it did with the stock setup.

    I am still working on the MPG, but it looks like I will be in the 17 mpg range when its all said and done. I just adjusted the speedo on the scangauge today, so I will check on the next fillup when I have the correct mileage.

    I do have a squeak in the rear from the drivers side spring. A little grease should take care of that. I only noticed it when I had all the old parts in the bed ( probably 300 lbs worth), and when I took it all out, it went away.

    All in all, I am really happy with it.

    The only thing that I really dont like is the reduced turning radius from the steering stop made into the knuckle. It feels like I lost a complete wheel rotation.

    I find myself staring at it, it looks mean as hell:D

    Ill put up new pics this weekend and I plan to work on my exhaust too
