    I've already explained. Love people so quick to voice their opinion, but so slow to take a minute and listen.

    I think you're under the mistaken impression that I intend to listen at all.

    Probably had a girl he liked complain it was too hard to get into.:D

    I always thought it would be cool to lower a 4x4 toyota with a physically fit hamster under the hood. Like sport truck style, but 4 wheel drive, or better yet AWD / center diff t-case. It will probably be a project I never start, and the platform I had in mind was a 2nd gen pickup, but there are more reasons to drive all your wheels than off-roading. I can't offer any help specifically with the tacoma, how much drop are you considering?

    Crap, my bad. I was thinking "really... another person asking why?"

    But yeah, I agree on the FJ. I think they are hideous as it is so that doesnt make it any better.

    Not much at all. A leveling kit lifts the front to level it with the back.. not how about a leveling kit the lowers the back to match the front. Kinda thought that would be cool.
