    Getting the lift and alignment done, as well as having the tires mounted and balanced all for for free sounds great...as long as they don't drop it again! :goingcrazy:

    If you want to go for a drive, shoot down to Avon and check out Oceanas Bistro. Their Seafood Nachos are insane. I wait all year for them.

    Torqued down the new front suspension, addressed the lousy reception on the radio,
    www.tacomaworld.com/threads/radio-reseption-ng.490198/#post-15120by tightening the screw the HiFi place didn't secure, also replaced the clips they broke. Grounded the winch and the dual battery set up ARB bumper mounts covered the previous frame ground....And hoping my batteries aren't ruined from leaving the truck on accessory for about two weeks...they didn't take a charge from my everyday charger, now trying the "smart" charger.

    Installed my new GGLighting 40" G3SR on top of the Prinsu, this light is fucking insane. 18,000 lumen watts with a ultra spot beam. Also got my sliders that I made myself back from the powder coaters and welded on. Very happy with the results

    I'd make sure that they don't report anything to carfax that might affect your resale value when/if you ever decide to seel/trade your truck.

    I drove it to the surf shop to buy new bearings for my skateboard wheels (inspired by Orezona).

    @Rus TRD I also bought the Headstrong 3 Add-a-leaf but I haven't installed it yet (possibly this weekend). What was your reasoning for leaving the overload in? I've heard remove it from people is why I ask.

    Interesting - those look very similar to the diode dynamics led bars I have.

    Not sure about your regular charger but my smart one won't charge a battery that is at a low voltage, It just doesn't recognize that it is hooked up to a battery at all. Suggest jump start and let run for 20 mins, then maybe use the charger overnight if the voltage is still low.

    Hey dude, I chose to leave it in because it is only extra half inch. Also I have 884 coils on the front set at 0 on my 5100's. If I decide to raise the front I can go up one more notch with my coils. The truck rides and handle really good. It is not a big deal if I had to have my mechanic remove it if I did not like it. Hope this helps.

    Got in an accident... Rolling up to light when the minivan in front of me decided that they weren't going to make the light and started reversing... suddenly they gas it up and and hit me... the rear window in the mini van shatters and is all over my hood and windshield. Just as I put my truck in park, he peels out and runs the light almost causing another accident... never saw them again. I assume it was an uninsured driver or possible illegal immigrant... WTF!!
    Doesn't look like any REAL damage to the truck... upon inspection, I noticed a few clips were broken and the bumper and grill are slightly misaligned. I'll know more once I pull the front end off this weekend. Maybe its time for a new bumper and grill...
