    Best part is how happy they are when he can steer again but don't give a shit about the axle shifting so far forward that the rear tire is completely contacting the front of the fender well

    Got the truck back from Valley Spring. $100 under their estimate, would have been 1/2 that if I had pulled the springs myself but I'm glad I didn't so they could take some measurements. I put the RTT on and told them I plan for about twice that fully loaded. They added a leaf to both sides and arched the driver spring 3" and 2" on the passenger side. Sits perfect now

    I keep hearing more and more good things about valley spring. They must be doing some good work over there! From tundra guys to taco guys, it sounds like they have their shit together over there.

    Would like to hear more about your bypass set-up. How it's working, how much more travel & or droop over standard king rears, anything else you might share. Approx cost? Stuff you'd do different if you did it again?

    Also will there be a support between each shock tower running trough the bed or is it not needed?
    Doing anything out front?

    Thank you. Can’t imagine how much this will cost to repair, if even possible.

    in all seriousness, this would be covered by insurance right? (after of course looking like a total idiot when contacting insurance) I would imagine it falls under Comprehensive coverage.

    Insurance should pick up a good bit. Towing out of there, could be as much as the repairs, which might be covered, or only partially covered.

    I can't... if that is what needs to be done for a resi, go to a professional and have a new upper shock mount made that actually accomodates the fittings! Fuck! That is some hacktastic bullshit!
