    yep, checking the droop indeed. Looks like they tend to do the bro look often. Look at the two white trucks to the left. That older, Chevy maybe?, and the one on the ramp behind the trailer. Got some bro wheels on those as well.

    Still cool and interesting to see a 3rd gen SAS, but I wish it was more for offroad and actually use it.

    Found another one. It's definitely built to be a show truck.

    It's pretty obvious why he doesn't post it on here. Kid's a troll as far as I'm concerned been banned from every Facebook tacoma page I know for creating drama. Not my style but kudos to him for blowing money on what he likes. More kudos to the guys who actually made it possible.

    I never thought an SAS build would do this to me, but this hurts...A LOT.

    It took me like 3 minutes looking at the picture to try and figure out why it looked Photo-shopped, I didn't even see the fork lift tine!

    Hi I'm retarded- what is SAS?

    I'd open google but I'm already here, typing this message.

    I cannot get passed those wheels :eek:

    Well, it is not my style, but it may as well be the first SAS on a 3rd gen so the owner deserves some credit for bravery. And as somebody mentioned above, considering how tall it is I bet it was actually not that difficult to build. Doing a SAS on a tacoma while keeping it low and streetable....that's where the challenge really is.

    Will this be another case of somebody later on complaining that they cannot afford the monthly payments anymore? :laughing:

    Thanks. Is the allure of a solid axle just less moving parts/less expensive to fix if it breaks?

    How does it enable giant amounts of lift which I assume an IFS cannot?
