    Over Kill you ask? Perhaps CJ this suspension is. I will admit I probally don't need this but guess what. I'll have it when I do decide to do it. However I've done a lot of Roading when I first got my TACOma. I was addicted to going 2 to 3 times a month. It soon died after I spent $$$ to repair a few things. I need my daily driver TACO. Did I ever plan to buy these KINGS @ retail? No. I scored a Killer deal most couldn't pass and I promise you there were cheaper than your SWAY A WAY Coils you got.

    I do my fair share of Off-Roading as my parents live 15 minutes away from both Holy Jims & Silverado Canyon. So I use to do every morning before stopping by to get my fix in. I might not do heavy roading like some, but I'm far from a mall crawler. Feel free to crawl under my truck next time or check the engine bay. You'll find a surprise.

    So I don't post those pictures you assume I don't use my truck for other things? I keep my truck extra clean all the time and you assume its never been abused? I've scratched my fenders and had them repainted right away.

    I camp and do plenty in the TACO with my girlfriend. If I choose to NOT post Off-Roading pictures, then thats my choice.

    I didn't cut my cab mounts for nothing if I didn't plan to put this truck to good use. ;)

    I'll get more off my External Hard Drive Tomorrow. I've got some nice pictures of my entire truck CAKED in mud and a few damaged body piece. Sorry If My Parking Lot Pictures are all you see CJ, I don't like seeing my truck dirty or paying to fix things again.


    So no need to call me out because I keep my TACO clean. Its a street queen that runs wild from time to time.

    dont let those pictures fool you guys. Most of these pictures were taken when we went out to Silverado Canyon together. My conversation with ray went something like this:

    Me: What are you doing dude?
    [Hes on his knees in the dirt]
    Ray: Im gonna throw mud and dirt on my truck so people think I offroad
    Me: Dude thats so poser. Just offroad for real.
    Ray: I dont want my truck to get messed up. Now shut up and help me get some dust in the engine bay.:rofl:

    Similar to my experience with him.

    When I was with him he had a big tractor dump a load of dirt onto his truck. Then he hooked it up to the tractor and let the guy tow it through some mud. Ehhh whatever floats his boat.

    Glad to see it makes it out of the speed bumps or downhill ramp at the Sherman Oaks Fashion Square mall

    I was just teasing by the way, If you saw my truck you'd think the same thing about it being a mall crawler cause i can't stand my truck dirty. I am interested in hearing about how the shocks perform for you in off road situations

    P.S. your peeps on here don't help your cause

    ^Hahahaha

    I'm gearing up to go again. I know I haven't seen dirt/mud in a while after I got the truck fully repainted. I'm just scared to ruin my nice paint.

    However, with this new suspension. I can't help to go out and have some fun. So I'll be out there testing it real soon. I just ordered a bunch of clear 3M protection to help protect to paint. ​


    So Far I'm OWNing Speedbumps all over the malls on Black Friday:D

    Yeah. Have the new TRD TT beadlock wheels. I sold my konigs to Tom (Monkeyproof). He painted them black. I also had a set of KMC enduros in between those. I don't keep wheels long. On my 6th set now!!!
