    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.

    yeah if you have a basic tool set and a torque wrench if you arent comfortable, you could do it yourself in a few hours. but its still a good excuse for a mod day! and we dont have one planned so just makes sense to get free help/labor lol. @h.zack801 you know what to do. all i ask is remember black mountain. jeff also requested another ride before then jus sayin

    Only the best.
    Just got an up close look at the dobinson system. There very good and very inexpensive. They said the front with resi and a 730#spring would run around 500-600each. They will also be release there +3° uca and rear leaf springs before december. Im think i might go that route. The guy that was there rep ing them on his 3rd gen said he had radflo and these blew them outta the water.

    They've got issues down there, I said it weeks ago. Had 9 linemen transfer in the off-season and only 4 defensive linemen on the depth chart after the msu game. Gonna be a negative record season. It seems they're trying to do everything bama has done over the last 15 years in 1 year....you know, hold a team from crossing the 50, lose to a cupcake (la monroe), etc. etc. Lol.

    Rich has a bad habit of trying to pick the date for himself.

    Seeing as how you were the driving factor in starting one, can you make that date? If not, we can explore other options.

    Compressing the coils using the weight of the truck is pretty easy and not a whole lot that can go wrong.

    Compressors are no bueno

    Yeah I hope not. He came into a crap situation honestly. Nobody is talking about the amount of transfers and decommits LSU had and they are blaming it on coaching and bad play. Sure, it's all to blame...but gosh why did people expect a fantastic team right out of the gates?

    Does anyone have plans for a bumper or have a bumper and want some winch support brackets? Might be selling mine at some point.

    Dobinsons suspension

    Put Dobinson's on my son's 4runner back at the first of August, they've been great. We loaded it down from front to back and bottom to top, roughly 350-400 lbs. Rear coils dropped maybe .5". It handles much more stable and rides smoother.


    Last week I upgraded all the suspension on my tacoma with Dobinson suspension. I carry between 550-715 lbs. in the truck. So far I've been happy with the ride and weight capacity. Dobinson USA rep. Mike is great to talk over which springs and coils to go with, plus for both of my vehicles shipping times were quick (2-3 days). He also can put the front coils and struts together for a fair price. It saves time and a lot easier to install.
