    Truck looks great! When you are done with drawer system 2.0 I'd love to take a look at it! I'm up in Fort Collins but I end up going south pretty regularly

    Got my lift installed about two weeks ago. Ordered the kit from Marie at @HeadStrong Off-Road pre assembled and it shipped quick. Everything was at my door in less than a week. I installed it in a day with a friend in his garage and overall the whole process went extremely smooth. I have spent the last week fine tuning things and will probably continue to do so for the next month or two. I did the 90021 struts and 887 coils with Wheelers Offroad SuperBumps in the front. I also did SPC UCAs to help with alignment and wheel travel. In the rear I did the EL096r leaf pack and I did end up adding an extra EL46XL to the pack. With the weight of my cap, rack and drawers the leafs flattened out pretty quick and I have sliders on the way. I spoke with TR from ARB this weekend at the Toytec meet and he recommended adding the EL46XL leaf after seeing my pack. He also gave it to me for free :thumbsup: In the rear I also added a 3 degree shim to correct drive line angles and have the Wheelers U-Bolt Flip and SuperBumps installed to boot!



    Currently I do have about 2 1/2 inches of rake from front to back. I am going to let everything settle over the next 1000 miles and readjust then. I think I will like add a 1/4 spacer on the top of the strut to get another 1/2 of lift in the front and bring the rake down a bit and do another alignment along with the ECGS bushing at that time. Additionally I think the rear is still a little high because I only put the extra leaf in yesterday and have only put 20 miles on the truck since.

    First off, huge shoutout to @jeffkimkp for working with me, shipping a bumper like this is not easy! I bought this brand new Mobtown Bumper off of Jeff after he had a change of heart on his build and I could not be happier. I am psyched to get it in! Here are a few photos he sent me, should be here Thursday or Friday!

    Update 7/13/18:

    Filling in some of the stuff I have skipped over recently as work has been stupid busy

    DIY Drawer system is done! It took a long time but I am super psyched with the results. I'll put some pics in below but please check out the very detailed build thread here:

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/doozy4212s-better-truck-drawer-build-guide.534258/




    AND the pics of my lift!

    • Old Man Emu NitroCharger Kit
      • 887 Coils Paired w/ 90021 Struts
      • SPC UCAs
      • EL096r Dakars w/ 1 additional EL46 Leaf
    • Wheelers Superbumps



    Mobtown Rear Bumper with Swingarm



    Pelfreybilt Fuse Panel is in and functional but I still need to hook my electronics up to it. I still have a lot of little stuff to do here and there but I'm enjoying the process!

    Ordered RCI sliders yesterday in anticipation for an upcoming Moab Trip. Current Plan is to run Onion Creek, Fins & Things, Hells Revenge, Top of the World and possibly Poison Spider!
