    How much did you invest in the tundra brake upgrade? I've been interested in it but haven't done much research.

    I use my front locker all the time. Although some objects I most definitely can get by with the rear and the right line. depends on the situation. Now I'm trying to get use to wheeling with the crawl box. Too many options!




    Nice.

    Hey man, Im curious how your 700# coils feel. I know you bumper/winch/skids are heavy, but 700# still seems like too much.

    Im looking at some Toytech coilovers and wondering if I should get 600 or 650# coils (planing on tube bumper and no winch)...

    Really? The Toytec BOSS coil overs offer up to 650# coils for "for extreme front weight or high speed wheeling" :notsure:

    I had icon 650# and just with an avid bar on the front I had more preload than I'd like. I just got the 700# icons on while I'm waiting on my bumper and decreased my preload and no noticeable difference ride wise.

    kings feel like butter! Not too much at all. Add the 2nd transfer case, bumper, full heavy ass bud builts, winch, rack..Shit adds up.

    How long are the 600?? 14"? Find that out and I can give you a better answer


    Edit: get the 650 lb.. they will be able to handle the tube bumper plus some skids and a winch if you change your mind later
