    Anyone planning on watching the Broncos game? Also, anyone have experience with ToyTec lifts and want to give me some advice for the installation?
    (I'm three sheets to the wind right now so there's a lot going on upstairs)

    yep, when you get ready for install just ask away. plenty of people in this thread have installed lift kits so you can probably bribe some people with beer and pizza to help you out

    Planning on tackling it this Saturday. My main question is about torque specs and where to find them. Also curious as to how to adjust the front shocks/coil over to obtain the desired lift.

    google search torque specs toyota tacoma and a TW thread pops up within the first 2 links. I search that every time I've installed a new setup :D

    from the image you posted are you running the kit that comes with bilstien 5100's or did you get the BOSS or Ultimate kit? if so then you will have to loosen the bottom plate with the spanner wrench to move the other plate to either lower or raise the coilover setup.

    If you got the 5100 kit then you would have to get the spring compressed to raise the clip on the bottom of the spring up or down a notch for height adjustments. Usually this is easier done by a shop

    I purchased the Ultimate kit. ToyTec coil overs with 5100 shocks. Add a leaf and boss springs in the rear.

    Your truck is engineered to compress the springs during normal operation and therefore makes an excellent spring compressor for disassembling/adjusting those types of shocks.

    I don't think I want any part of that trail. I'm OK with clearing a down tree or three or four maybe but that was ridiculous. Their rigs are becoming equally ridiculous as well

    Strange Gmail problem when I was out in Cali... wondering if anyone else has had something similar happen.

    I think it was Monday, my Google calendar randomly populated with appointments to "pick up the kids", "lunch with hubby", "meeting in conference room". At some point my account must've crossed paths with someone elses and loaded up their stuff. As soon as I saw it, I changed my password. After I did that, my reminder for my flight this morning disappeared from my calendar at some point. Some of the places in the appointments are Cali places, so guessing it was someones account there.

    My calendar has three email calendars pulled into it, all mine, nobody has access to them... well other than the hackers. It never showed that there was another calendar, it displayed all of these appointments and stuff as if they were entered on my main account.

    Called google, and they sent me an email link to contact those in charge of calendar stuff.. but the link they sent was no help.
