    Ya I was thinking same thing. I'll get cv's fixed then think about that. Also need to throw new bushings in my Dakar's. They're squeaking like mother

    I'll look into that, I like parts you can actually service.

    One reason I went with those, plus they only work with Dakars so might as well

    Yes they are 883 upfront and Dakars with 250lb ADD in the back. very firm till I put the Bumper and topper with RTT on. Now perfect.

    The down fall with a solid OME system is it squeaks like hell. My 04 taco is solid toytec Bilstein and rides better on road and is silent.

    Usually everyone on here says toytec rides rough. Do you have extra weight on the truck?

    My problem is probably worn cv's more than suspension, my bilsteins are fairly new.

    I'm rocking the mis matched shell until it's painted. Ya I'm glad to man, I would've regretted it no doubt. Glad you found a good one too.

    Where'd you get the Toyota tailgate decal. That sounds pretty cool. I've been thinking I gotta do one thing for appearance some day.

    Make sure you replace the bolts in the LBJ's when you replace them. I had my LBJ's replaced under recall in 2012..that was 70,000 miles ago. I recently replaced all the bolts because I've had them out a few times to replace CV axles and other things.

    Ya same here, just did cv's and replaced the bolts. Lucked up and got a new set of bolts, pins, and dust/mud covers with new LBJ's from a member on here for $190 shipped!
    Hell of a deal
    I'll look up the link to that decal for you.

    You have dark green too? I love that color. I orignally wanted either that or Silver Mist Metallic and ended up with gold. The only thing good about gold is it's the same color as dirt.
