    Pretty simple answer. My friend was selling these for a price I couldn't pass up. I love SCS wheels, but wouldn't have been able to buy them new.

    how difficult was the TC cam tab install? Need to do it on my truck since my tabs are flat. Not planning to put new LCAs on like you. Did you do it yourself?

    I kinda wanna just write something on this so I can find it again because you're truck is sweet. I like your style sir! Do you have any exhaust on your truck or have you considered modifying it?

    Pretty straightforward job. I found it easier to bend the tabs and carefully cut the spot weld with a cutoff disc versus drilling the spot welds when removing the stock tabs.

    I did not. I don't have a welder, and getting lining up a friend to help me was not working out. It isn't so much that it's a difficult job, but it is a ton of work. My LCA got to a point they were so bad, that I had to swap them to avoid a brake. There was no way I was going to pull them without also fixing the cam tabs.

    Here is the write up I showed to the guys that did my truck so they would know what to do.
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/total-chaos-lca-cam-tab-gussets-install.362440/

    I have the factory TRD exhaust. I cut it just past the exhaust so it didn't look goofy on my high clearance rear. I would like to do headers one day, but I don't know if I want to deal with the potential headache of headers. Probably will swap for them if my Cats ever go.


    Thank man! You should have we could have tore up the city a little bit. Next time hit me up for sure!

    I might be. Due to some legal ramifications I won't be able to drive outside of Illinois for 1 year. Soooo if I do I might ride with my friend Mike or fly out and ride along with someone else. I will have to see what my situation is like when it gets closer.
