    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    Yep,
    Glad I got a double cab. Have no idea why toyota didn't think AC would want/need a roof rack. :notsure:

    I installed an x-runner sway bar using the sos performance it was a 7hr job and I’m still need to do some tweaks tomorrow because of clearance problems during turns on the spring perches. I need to shave off a little more metal on the sway bar to change the curve radius just a tiny bit. It will be great after that! The instructions were junk. Their mounting suggestions are totally wrong for a 3rd gen except for the basic angles of each component. If you have a axle dump exhaust and no spare you may be able to nudge the axle brackets back enough for the sway bar to clear everything. The TRD Pro exhaust definely made it a tough fit. I managed to get the spare to fit, but I had to bend the holders to the passenger side about a quarter inch.

    The good news is the truck turns much much better. The body roll is around 33% less! Don’t take too much stock in this yet, but I had barely any rear diff howl on the highway after doing this. My thought is that the sway bar changed the resonance of the axle by connecting it to the frame indirectly.
    However an alternate explanation:
    I removed the lead spring mount the driver side because it was cocked to the right on my Tacoma. I put it back on strait. Maybe that had an effect?

    Today was a nice day in my workshop. Oil change and injectors on the MR2, car show prep on the Opel, and 7hrs of BS with the Taco:)

    Looks good! I like to see people do them different. I did just two much wider ones on the top instead for mine:) E114BC59-D756-48E3-9B99-47FFD236EDC0.jpg

    Too many
    LED strips, driver and pass floorboards, LED replacements for the dome lights. Bye bye yellow factory lights! Buddy did the dome lights for free. Can’t beat it!

    Double cabs are a walk in the park. They have nuts factory installed under the weatherstip on the roof.
    You have to install them yourself on access cabs and it sucks. Lol

    YUUUUP!
    If you see the show it will make sense to you. It's what he says every time he bids on a storage locker. YUUUUP! Is on his hat, his shirt and his trucks. Just an attempt at some levity. Oh well, I'm no Jay Leno? :anonymous:

    I think you are onto something, the sway is acting as a resonance damper. Side note: Great taste in cars, love the Opel. No 240Z off to the side?
