    It's 1.75" for now. I'm buying 885s off a member, then going up to 2.5" at a much later date. Let me know if something going down this weekend and I'll stop by!

    I tried multiple different ways to try to attach a pic, but I guess first gen Droids aren't really much of a "smart" phone :p

    Lift pics! I went cheap and lifted to the full extent of the UCAs and OE springs, but it gave enough clearance for the 265/75's and matches the rear more closely now.

    LOL! The chair was to keep people from tripping over the jack handle, but that picture did turn out goofy and all you can see is the chair.

    Slow and easy. It'll look good!

    I'm waiting for the weather to do another 180 so I can begin prepping and priming my troubled-paint areas. Ironically, I had a 3-day weekend this weekend, but work next weekend, D'oh

    I completed the armrest mod last night and I have mixed feelings about it. It could look awesome, but when it cooled off for the night the vinyl shrunk and pulled it's self off in that little concaved area, to the rear of each panel. Hell if I want to pop and pull the whole thing apart just to re-adhere it! :(

    Does anyone in Austin run 255/85-16's on their 2nd gen? I would really like to test fit a set to my truck before I order them, on TRD OR wheels would be even better yet.

    It's an interesting size, for sure. I don't know anyone who runs it in town personally.

    Also, armrest pics! I have gobs of this material left over if anyone wants to try it. I'm going to re-adhere it today with construction adhesive since the best stuff 3M carries isn't holding up to this 40-to-95 degrees in 2-day weather we have here.

    Also, I apologize for these really shitty pictures my phone has been taking lately. I'm thinking it's focusing ability is borked. Go-go-POS-first-gen-Android!
