Hi Everyone,

I have a 98 Tacoma 4X4 with almost 180 thou on it. The only real mods are rear suspension and wheels. It now handles a lot better and takes the bumps better as well.

It's a great truck, but getting a little tired. But I want to stay with Gen 1. I've squeezed thru too many tight places to want a wider truck.

I'm used to doing all my own work on cars, and with all the new technologies, it's not as easy as it used to be. As everything gets more complex, the aftermarket repair manuals get worse.

Well that's more than I intended to say.
