    That's a nice view. It's just missing a few Tacomas.

    Little this. Little that 4x4 Swap’d PreRunner
    New packs don’t have the issue. Issue comes from when you pull and or add leafs, you have to undo those bolts and when you reinstall them backwards, those leaf wrap tabs can shift/bend either way and can expose more threads when retightened and rub the leaf pack.

    Question for anyone that added front diff locker: Do you need to do anything about A.D.D? Or just leave it alone?

    Played that course once, it was awesome. Had the whole clubhouse to ourselves afterwards. Definitely had no business being on that course, but hey, I cleared the Ladies Tee Box all day.

    Not near Concord, but Rock and Road has a mobile shock rebuild/tune rig... I've been considering setting up a day in the bay for them to come out and rebuild/tune a few of us at one time. $125 for the mobile trailer fee.

    I've stopped by their shop in Loomis. He said $30 a shock if you take them off yourself. I know I need mine tuned so hopefully once I get my winch and shell i can get it better than it is now

    He seems like a solid dude. I stopped by cause of an alignment issue the alignment shop sent me to him for and he didn't charge me but 30 bucks for an hour and a half cause he couldn't find anything wrong. Turns out the alignment shop guy didn't know what toe was or something. Took it to another alignment shop and no more problem.

    They have a sick ultra4 rig there. 6.1L gasser, said he's gonna throw in a turbo in the next year or so. The body and cage is all custom and tig welded, 16" front and 18" rear i think with bypasses and sas. It's sick

    Hi guys. Was wondering if anyone has a spring compressor I can borrow? Need to adjust my CO's for the pending bumper install this weekend.

    I may have tweaked a few things...
    Most auto parts stores have loaner tools, including spring compressors. I know that O’Reilly has a solid set but not sure about others.

    I could actually take 3 for my swingout if it’s not too much to ask. That way my wheel spacers can have theirs back and I can sell them :thumbsup:

    You have ADS coilovers, correct? Believe preload can be adjusted on the truck. Perhaps @tyfoon11 can confirm.
