    Thanks Guys. Yeah I'm Familiar with the empty wallet syndrome...In a nutshell Ive built an 02 taco d-cab on Icons, Deavers, and fully armored, an 85 4runner dedicated crawler on 37s, locked, dual tcases, fully caged,etc...., had an 07 Tundra to haul the 85, and after divorce find myself with none of it but a new 2011 silver D-cab short bed TRD! gonna start slow w some demello RC sliders, then some coilovers and uca's and rear springs and wheel it:D

    oh, and sorry but I cant teach you how to Dougie, either you got it or you dont!!

    I'm Baaaaack...long story short, I'm in a white 2017 dcab short bed TRD now. Great truck despite all the complaints about shifting and power...its really not bad compared to the old 3.4's, or even more to the point, the old 3.slow!!!
