    Mike (Defined) makes & sells the rear suspension setup on this truck, very nice kit :cool:

    The front is running stock A-Arms, with a custom top mount (tied to the engine cage) to run a Bilstein "Coil-Pass" A coilover with a bypass mounted on top, I believe they we're custom made for the truck, but I'm sure if you're can get them if you have the $$$

    Very nice setup...I want a 50 gal tank!
    So since this is an 07 what happened to the back seats? Toyota and TRD must be on board since you have the "baja" graphics.

    Damn, good try tho:thumbsup: The Total Mayhem truck made it to about the same spot!

    Assuming it has an 8" Diff?

    Were you chasing in your truck Mike?

    interesting . the total mayham guys wanted me to sponsor them with some parts too . good thing i didnt, as my weekend would be even more shitty.

    its was the e-locker rear end and i told them from the get go that it wont last , if there a next time maybe they will upgrade.

    didnt go to baja this year , had to much crap to take care of in the states. the 1000 is a long race for the chasers too , gets kinda old after youve done a few. one day ill be the one thats being chased and thats a lot more appealing to me.

    Yeah, seems like it was one rough Baja for everybody.

    Live and learn, they should be able to run a 8.4" Diff. and still be stock-mini class eligible right?

    Yeah, I could see that being the case for sure. Racing is much more fun then chasing:cool:

    Anyone who's raced has been there. Sucks, but you guys will get 'em next time! :thumbsup:

    Hopefully, since this truck has corporate backing, Toyota will start looking into the disintegrating differential issues that people have been experiencing. It'd be a nice silver lining.

    Thanks for the updates!
