    Welp, I figured since I just got my taco, I might as well join a club!
    So here's my first post!
    Tonight I did my first major truck project/mod and installed an OME heavy suspension lift and new LR UCA's on my 2010 ExCab 4x4.
    In total: 9.5 hrs of work (not including beer and pi$$ breaks)

    Just jack stands, a friend and I who have never done it before, and basic tools.

    So, does that seem like an average time or did we take forever?

    Yes sir
    Seems decently quick to me for full suspension :notsure:

    Took me a while to bend the inner fender back enough to get the UCA bolts out and then we sprayed some rust prevention in there. I also assembled the coilovers with my dad so that took a bunch of extra time

    Omg same for me, that took me forever on the passenger side, I eventually just cut the body out of the way... it was really my last resort... the drivers side wasnt bad though.

    Yes sir
    Yea we ended up bending it as much as we could and then ground a bit of the bolt down to sneak it past the rest of the metal that was in the way
