    My lift is pieces from many places. The king coilovers are from downsouth motorsports, the dakar leaf springs were purchased from Amazon due to free shipping and the shackles I think we're also an Amazon score. If you are looking for something specific I can let you know where I got it.

    The 2.7 is perfect for the truck. The regearing is the key. When I eventually solid axle the front, I will regear again.

    We bought the tundra 2 years before I ever modified the Tacoma. Everything has evolved since

    I'll be in SC again the first week of June. Not sure if I'm trailering the Tacoma down though. 9 mpg sucks. Here are some rausch creek pics from last weekend. uploadfromtaptalk1461010187306.jpg

    Rhino has actually lost about 15 lbs. He is a healthy 170 now. uploadfromtaptalk1461010385814.jpg
