    hey guys hows it goin? its been a while since ive been on a offroad forum and im diggin all the new parts and kits that have came out since i had my old truck.. bought this toyota brand new in 2004 and slapped a TC taco kit on it with 10" dual rate kings and i hammered the hell outta it.. maxed it out plenty of times, over shot a down hill jump at about 75 and ended up cracking the weld on the shock tower/engine cage.. welded it back up and it was good to go!
    Sadly some douche driving without headlights it me head on totaling the truck..twisting the driver side LT.. ended up getting a titan after that which was nice but gas sucked.. so i got a infiniti g35 after that (what im driving now) which again is fun and fast but i need a truck in my life..

    so after the new year ill be trading in the infiniti for a 2008-2010 4door tacoma and i cant wait to get it, been looking at the TC kits which look nice and im familiar with TC so it feels right, but i also feel that i want more then 13" of travel.. lookin at engage kits and DTF 6" over LT kit which looks awesome.. are there any kits that are in the middle like 4.5-5" over stock?

    anyway im excited to get this started again and its pretty awesome seeing all the builds and rides on this forum.. here are some pix of my old yota.. RIP

    thanks man! i cant wait.. gonna be putting in extra work in my glass shop and hopefully will be able to get a kit within a month or so after gettin the truck.. after looking at a bunch of kits it seem the DTF kit cant be beat for the amount of travel and the price.. might even sell my quad to make the fun come faster haha! i really wish i had more pix of my old yota i had some good times in it. about to make some new ones though!
