    I enjoy wheeling in all different kinds of places... currently have a full mid travel setup (foxes front and rear, TC UCAs) and wheeled a bit over at Uwharrie. Wasn't too bad actually and the truck handled very well. Looking for more places to go though and I'm definitely willing to take road trips with the wife and dogs to find good camping/wheeling spots

    Definitely willing to part with them haha like I mentioned though, it won't be for a couple more months until they are off the truck but they have low miles (15,000) and are the extended travel non Resi ones

    Sweet. The Camburg +3.5 kit? What are you going to do for the rear suspension?

    *Noob Warning*

    I'm purchasing a 2011 Tacoma tomorrow and figured I would say hello. I'll create an official intro thread once I get some decent pictures :)

    I'm originally from Cary (Raleigh area) but now live and work in the Charlotte area. I have a 2005 Honda S2000 and my wife has a 2011 Hyundai Elantra, leaving our weekend trips to Lowe's a bit daunting since very few things we purchase seem to fit in either vehicle. We've been looking for a Taco since July and finally found the right one. It's not exactly what I wanted, but you can't have everything in life.

    I look forward to learning more about this truck and being active in the community.

    -Tyler

    Well fellas the Backwoods chop shop is currently in the process of doing the first SAS on a Chevy Tahoe. It's not Tacoma related but figured y'all might get a kick outta it haha. It's a 95 with 16 inches of lift and gonna run 46s!

    Yeah, the +3.5 kit. Eventually I'm wanting to to the DMZ SUA Kit with fox/king triple bypasses and a bedcage. I don't know anyone out here on the east coast that has experience with this sort of thing since the DMZ Kit is weld on and everything needs to be cycled. So I might save a ton up and ship the truck out to the west coast to have a shop do it over there. Decisions decisions haha

    I know MarsFab (shop here in NC) is a really skilled fabricator, they installed front LT on a Tacoma but I'm not sure if he built the rear to match. Might be worth looking into.

    Definitely worth looking into. After spending close to $5k on the front though, the back is going to have to wait lol

    Update on the SAS. We got the tires mounted today, just gotta bleed the breaks and waiting on the rear drive shaft, should be done tomorrow. My trucks next on the Chopping block, only gonna do 37s on mine though haha

    Is anyone in or near Charlotte interested in picking up my TRD intake for $200? It fits '05+ V6, I think '05-'11 models but not positive so check. Comes with everything needed, an AFE dry filter with 5k miles, and dirty TRD filter with about 20-25k miles (was cleaned 3 times). Tried to sell it on the forum but got irritated with people BSing me.

    Also have behind-grill light mount for $60

    image.jpg

    I can help install both items

    It sounds good, I like it, honestly. Makes it sound throaty especially with exhaust. I just decided to try the URD intake which I like also.
