    Hi, I'm new here and soon to be in Kalispell. Anyone have any experience with front coil overs on MT roads? I've read coil overs don't handle salt too well. I'm considering a 1st gen Taco with SAW Coil Overs. Any advice on parts that work well in MT would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Welcome from Bozeman! Good thing we use Magnesium Chloride on the roads in Montana instead of salt. It is less corrosive than salt. No vehicle is safe in as drastic of conditions that we experience here, but you're better here than a vehicle in the salt belt. Coilovers should serve you just fine here

    Where did you hear that BS? :smack: I don't think that is true. Besides, he's not buying COs, he's buying a truck that already has the SAWs installed.

    Lol are you kidding me Mike? Its the number one thing that everyone seems to say about em. Every thread i read about COs says SAWs are great, but they tend to rust.
