    Every time I come back to this thread I learn a lot and am thankful that I have no aspirations for any size LT. My future is more likely to see a leaf spring SAS than any of the fancy stuff y’all are doing.

    That being said, I’m learning a lot about this go-fast stuff and again thankful that I’m not into it.

    I am 100% confident in saying that if I were into “go fast stuff” I would rather go buy a used UTV & trailer it around so I could actually “go fast” and have a good time without all the added stress of doing it to a tacoma.

    I 100% agree! LT was definitely a huge expense.

    The best thing about it (now) is doing it right. The worst part was learning, and spending.

    I can say, however, long travel literally changes the truck in so many ways. Can’t express how smooth it is over bumps. I could hit a speed bump at 50 mph and be solid in the front (rear blows still).

    Becomes more responsive, better MPG, and truck feels healthier. I feel the difference right after!

    Never done sea foam in my own vehicle either, seen it done in others and yea smokes a ton. Thanks for the video after seeing it I’ll prolly try now, cause it seems like you get better mpg than me by far

    Haha yeah the Seafoam smoke show is always fun.

    I recommend the spray can kind if you're running it through the intake or throttle body, too easy to accidentally pour too much too fast with the regular can...which can = bad news.

    I don't recommend doing it too often though because despite what Seafoam claims, it's not good for your O2 sensors.

    Right on. I have a buddy who just did +2 LT on his 5th gen 4runner and although it is incredible off road he says it’s absolutely a nightmare to drive on road for typical DD things. He’s about to get the TC LT SWAYBAR kit to remedy some of that.
