    Going to be even better when I'm not working on it and it's done enough so I can wheel it through the Summer. :bananadead:

    That's actually not a bad idea, and I wouldn't mind cutting up my stock bumps since I have new bumps for the front once I finish tubbing. Originally my idea was to pull the springs off my coilovers and just bump everything out as high as I could, or until I hit mechanical bind. I keep that in mind though. Appreciate it!

    Stuff. Also things.
    No worries!

    I ended up just pulling the coilover altogether which made it super easy to cycle. Just a thought.

    I'll have to flex the truck again and see how close I get to my stock bumps. I know I bottom out my shock before I touch bump stops, but if it's close enough I might try and use the stock bumps and a washer or 2 to get damn close to what if need.

    Wait wat? your shock bottoms before bumps in the front? your playing a dangerous game if thats the case. Also are you sticking with the 15" wheels or moving up for the 35s?

    Yeah, I'll have to check, but I know it's a dumb game to play. I have new DuroBumps ready to go in once the tubing is done.

    I have 16x8s ready for the 315s. I'll get one mounted up at work sometime this week.

    Strange that the Icons would do that on a stock-fit coilover.

    Good move upping to 16s, might wanna start looking for them tundra brakes soon:boink:

    I'd probably imagine other uses of a heim joint UCA might have a similar mark or hole there like you do.

    That's the plan. I have everything I need as well for the ABS delete as well so Tundra Brakes are bound to happen with in the next few months. Just waiting on a buddy to get back to me if he can source Tundra brakes for me.

    I did the cowl reroute on my 2nd gen. Perhaps that's an option for 1st gen too?

    Lmao! I'm pretty stoked how it looks. 10s are too wide for my taste, but they definitely look good regardless.

    Lets hope you're right, but it's going to be close.

    Possibly. I was going to use the stock air box and just pull the elbow out so it doesn't suck down more dust and water than needed.
