    ooooooooo that's fun! That's like the next time I need to access plugs or fuel injectors I have to pull the entire SC manifold off. I'm gonna go ahead and wait till it needs it :rofl:

    For those that have never done it, pulling the intake manifold on any of these Toyota trucks sucks. It's alot of reaching and back straining, and a guaranteed back ache at the end of the day :rofl:, at least when I did mine that's what happened to me lol and I'm pretty tall. Jason is a total trooper doing that stuff lol

    The good thing is I am an athlete and I do this type stuff every day so its not too bad, but this one was lifted so it was a lot of a stretch to reach things, thats for sure.
    You should see me pull Diesel heads off! I have to use tie downs around my feet to the tire so I dont do a front flip trying to pull off 120# head, makes it tough when the head weighs as much as me, no joke!

    Lets see the "After" pics!

    Also, figured out why it is so nose high, coils are actually 521600, not 112620.. so it's actually giving 2.5", not 1.5" like I thought haha might have to swap them out to get rid of the lean and level the truck

    Jason has earned my business in the future, and I already have some stuff planned for very soon. He is super cool and answered all of my questions. I felt like I learned a ton just from watching him.

    Hey Jason anyway you would work on a 5 lug? I am looking to regear and have new shocks put in. I am looking to get the correCT 4.10 gears for my 5 lug but I'm close by and would love to have someone who cares work on it.

    Hey Conner no worries, just shoot me a PM and we can form a plan. I pretty much work on all Toyotas as well as other makes and models, but not a huge fan of European cars, haha. However Toyota trucks and SUVs are generally my specialty! I literally have decades of experience. So just PM me and we can start to get it all figured out. :thumbsup:
