Austin Area TW Chapter (all gens welcome, even T4Rs; heck, just make it a Toyota and we're good)

You dont have to do that man!

 

I look at that every day!

Maybe I'll just start parking on top a couple of the rocks if we keep our new spot.

 

Just find some 885 springs and 2nd hand UCA's and lift that baby!!!!

 

Hey, I have front springs and stock front and rear shocks off my '11 Taco. I pulled them off when I put my lift on, they have just a bit over 1K miles on them, (yes, 1,000 miles). I'll charge $25 for the hassle of pulling them out of my trash, and other than that, they are free. Why am I tossing them? Don't need them in the garage, and dealing with Jackholes on CL is much more pain than it's worth.

Let me know, the garbage truck comes tomorrow...

Here is a link with pics, I did manage to sell the UCAs, with just a touch of PITA.

TRD or Tokico?

 

Chris, you worked on the truck, it's not a TRD...

 

Are these springs any different than the factory springs on my 13?

 

Welcome to "the list" y'all.

Sorry I've been scarce - between a death in the family, some ill in-laws, and a workload that would kill a lesser man - the only reason I know my own name right now is because everyone is screaming at me.

Looks like y'all had fun at C&C. Sorry I missed that Deuce - I miss driving those.

If anything comes up and you really need me, send me a PM. I might not make it back to TW until Friday. Thanks!

 

Hang in there Cap, let us know if theres any way to help!

 

It won't end, believe me. There will be always something else.......

Make sure you bring a ramp, it's a long way up

Try getting some struts from a 2016+ TRD OR. Gives you roughly and inch of lift and it's a night a day difference in ride comfort.

 

This, this is what I did. Gave me an extra inch of lift.

 

No idea.

I already have 5100s installed so I'm thinking I'll just get a set of springs.
If I didn't get confused with everything I read, as long as I stay under 3" of lift in the front I should be able to run the factory UCAs, correct?
$$$$ is going to dictate the next step, and I need to focus on the trailer so it will be ready for this summer.

 

Correct.

You could always bring the Bilstiens up a notch

 

That changes it, then you are correct. You could just bring them up.

 

Well I saw a white 3rd gen with what appeared to be an ARB bumper and winch...

 

I already have them on 1.75 (3rd notch).
If I move them up to the top one then I will have to get the alignment done again and lose ride quality?

 

Oh dang, Yeah I wouldnt bump them up anymore.

885 coils from Headstrong arent that much at all

Just get those then drop the billys down and have a much better ride quality

 

That's what the prophecy foretold!!

 

That's what I'm thinking, this summer is going to be mostly off road for at least a week.
I need to improve ride quality as much as I can.
