    No worries! I had to check all the packaging material like three times just to make sure I wasn't missing them.

    Maybe you can get the twin turbo 5.0 in a year or two!

    Threw the rock guards on along with some ARP wheel studs and Gorilla lug nuts. I have some Deavers on the way and then I'll probbaly put this build on the back burner. My buddy left the state and also left me with a 93 Toyota pickup that needs some TLC.

    Ford spent all that time and money developing and tuning the suspension only to throw a 2" lift block under the leafs. It happens to work out perfectly if you want to add a Deaver pack though!

    Thanks! I'm curious to see one of the new ones in person and see about this new motor.

    You should definitely get one though! My Tacoma was a more capable offraod rig but for how often I get off the black top the raptor is way more fun!

    yeah dude... a new & lighter frame, new motor, bigger & better shocks... all kinds of cool new stuff with the 2nd gen raptors

    i'll get one for sure... it's just a matter of when. my old LT tacoma was a blast and a great truck but ever since they came out i've wanted a raptor
