    Love the truck man. What travel coil overs do you run? and what is the length and rate of your springs?

    I have eibach coilovers that are 600lb rating and the shocks are 2.5x8

    Not sure on the length of the spring if that is what you were asking.

    I'll be starting a separate thread soon, but I am selling this truck! It has about 102,xxx miles and I am probably going to be asking around $25k. Runs great, just had a brand new water pump put in and belt replaced

    Nice job man :bowdown:... I'm planning on doing the same thing but I have the pre runner 2wd. From what I've read it should be pretty easy since nothing was cut on my crossmember right? Anyway awesome job can't wait to see what you do to the new one.

    Since I need my factory or new spindles what route should I go? What about the 4" maxtrac spindles and reinforce them? Prolly a waste of time lol. If I have any questions when I start my build I'll prolly shoot you a PM I mean a lot lol

    @ItsYaBoy If you're 2wd, I'd get aftermarket spindles. I would have, however, 4wd spindles is rare and expensive. You could do the total chaos spindle gussets on your stock ones. That is what I did and I had no problems. Another thing about aftermarket spindles is they will provide you with some lift.

    Awesome! How much did you end up getting for it? I have someone coming next weekend to check it out, and another person coming the week after (1 from central coast and the other from Phoenix).

    I ended up getting 23k. I don't think I was going to get much more unless mr money bags rolled in. I started at 25k so I'm still pretty happy. It's time for me to start a new build thread! I've already done so much to my new one.

    Hopefully you have some luck with those two coming to see it. If they're coming a long distance chances are pretty good they're real interested.

    I had the best luck on race dezert classified
