    Yeah, 27" is definitely more than 3" longer than stock.
    No problem Lloyd :thumbsup:

    I need a link to those fancy vice grips you brought. I'm going to own a set of those.

    I did the much longer 27" brake lines because I was planning on the Dakars with the 29XL AAL's AND shackle flip at the time.

    And any placement so that the shackle isn't perpendicular to the ground is going to preload the spring.

    In further conversation with Physicist Wife, she doesn't see any way the effective spring rate of the suspension setup can be the same between stock and flipped shackles.

    She also opines we should just listen to her in the first place. :)

    That's interesting (your wife opinion, not the spring rate math.)

    In a recent conversation with my Microbiologist Wife, she believes that any work performed on a Tacoma Truck should be done with great care, with minimal damage to body parts, to prevent great possibility of infection and therefore loss of affected body parts. Or performed by someone else.

    Her opinion is similar as well: I should just listen to her in the first and LAST place. :)

    Can you guys help me find the LCA Cam Bolts? I can't seem to find them on the Wheeler's website.
    Thanks,

    Is it because of your diminutive stature that you require a micro biologist for medical supervision? :boink:

    If that's the case, I need to find a macro biologist.

    Next weekend, I'll be changing out my front suspension: Bilstein B6112's, Eibach 700#, SPC Light Racing UCA's and Super-bumps.
    I also feel the need to refresh some of the 12 year old hardware and "soft" ware, such as UCA Pivot Bolt, coil spring rubber isolator, shock stem washers/rubber rubber cushions.
    Is there anything else I need to replace?
    TC weld-on Cam Tabs and TC Spindle Gussets, LCA refurbish (replace bushings and joint) are planned for a later date.
    Thanks guys

    You need a chiropractor. You need to quit doing shit under your truck that causes you great neck pains. You already have off-camber for that.
