    02 Tacoma, fixed with curse words.

    I don't think people honk enough! I have been on a shame honking campaign, if you do something stupid im honking loud and long to let the whole world see how much you suck at driving. Pull out and block two lanes of traffic waiting for traffic to clear while making a left turn from a side street, i lay on the horn until you move... Don't turn right on red... one steady honk until you turn... I hardly speed since the taco handles like crap and my brakes suck (disc swap imminent), but its just dumb people evreywhere around here.




    I only have a 5min commute from my house to the bus that takes me to the metra LOL!! You can only imagine how crazy i was when i commuted from bolingbrook to midway everyday on 55 I HATE that highway!!!

    There's a retail shop around here called ChiTown 4x4 but they use a shop in Saint Charles called AutoPractor. Member, LoadedTaco, can help you out with anything you need to order.

    That's the shop I used and they were awesome!

    I had the dealership install mine. Did a great job and they know what is on there when they do any other work.

    Installed this exact setup myself. Along with the Icon progressive AAL. Took about a day. The only part that was a pain in the ass was using the spring compressors I have. Would definitely recommend ordering the springs and shocks assembled together from Toytec. Other than that you should have no problem doing it yourself. Couldn't be happier with the results.

    How did you assemble the coil over without a spring compressor? Even with the screw type it still kicked my ass.
