    hell yeah man! I posted it a few pages back (pages seem to fly by on this thread so it's understandable)...

    Here she is in all her ass-high glory...got about 1.75" of rake which was a little more than what it was before (about an inch of rake with the stock setup). Left the overload spring in otherwise it would be level, but I kinda dig the rake. Plus, when I add a topper later it should help settle it down some.

    They were cool. At one big dip he spilt his drink all over my truck. It was funny!

    They definitely had fun. Could tell they were nervous at times but overall they had a positive experience.

    Oh yeah, I forgot to add to the first post that I bottomed out my suspension front and rear quite a few times also. :thumbsup:

    Dang she's pretty! Can definitely see the rake in the last profile pic. It'll probably settle out on its own over time.

    Lucky! Looks like a blast
    My bosses always want to ride in my rigs. Working in DTLA, built trucks are very rare.
    Rake is the bomb. I love having at least 1-2" of it. Then when I have the tent and supplies on I don't look like a brodozer

    Thats awsome man. Me and my brother are working on getting our next Vegas trip planned pretty soon and will definetly be offroading there and back as much as possible. Maybe an offroad Vegas run can be a big meet up in the fall when it cools down:confused:

    I work in DTLA also and rarely see any trucks built probably cause theres no where to park.lol. I do see a grey 5th gen 4 runner almost everyday though right around Grand and 1st on my way to work. He got everything on it from armor to suspension. big ass tires too. Can you fit 35s on your runner? I imagine some serious trimming would be needed.

    I had 34's on it. Lots of trimming for that. I would need new bumpers to squeeze 35s. Eric's (@RelentlessFab) wife, Brittony just got a 2016 4Runner and will be putting 35's on it soon I think. They are doing bumpers first though. Can't wait to check out their rigs when I go up in September to get my bumper.
