    If I get a couple of free hours, I will head up there. Even though I am not into offroading, I like to see what other people are doing with their trucks.

    I'll get there but my truck is still too new to thrash on it that hard.... .. but I'll get there. Already got a dent or 2. It's a truck, I guess it just gives it some character

    Did any of you guys end up at the wrench day? I got stuck with other plans, but from what I heard there were a ton of trucks there. Mostly FJs.

    I was hoping to but time was against me :eek: I would've felt in the way because I didn't really have anything to do on the truck

    No worries they have one every couple weeks. Most people don't have anything to work on. A lot of people just hangout. They had a grill going today.

    Yeah Peter we missed you. Yet again Tacomas were severely outnumbered. In fact, there were as many Tacomas as wranglers. A buddy of mine who has yet to sign up to Tacomaworld made it with his for a short bit so I guess for a while there were 3. Good times tho as expected.

    Hey Mike, it's Juan from the wrench day. I wanted to let you know that the carrier bearing drop seemed to have worked for me. I know you are fearing vibrations if you lift your truck so I hope this helps. Before I realized I wanted more than just 2" of lift in the rear, I had a add-a-leaf (which is what I would do unless you want more height) and I had no vibrations. I'm figuring going with the dakar leaf pack (2.75 of lift) and going over 2" is what obviously caused the vibes. Hope I helped you and nice meeting you.

    Oh man...I didn't realize you had a supercharger. Next time I see you I wanna take a peek at it

    Juan
