    mine was about 1/4" high in back, after a weekend trip fully loaded now it rides 1/4" low lol. it never went back up. putting the OME add a leafs in this weekend tho. I don't mind if it sags a bit when fully loaded, i just want it to have some rack when empty. ive decided on the CBI T3 bumper too so once i eventually do that and add a winch itll bring the front down so I am not to concerned.

    Hey all, I've made some comments but never fully introduced myself (or more importantly the truck).

    I'm Blake from St. Paul. Got the 2018 TRD Off Road DCLB

    My first couple of mods done were:

    Predator Step up bars
    Blacked out grille
    Blacked out badges

    Next step:
    Topper is on order (ARE CX...will do a post with that when I get it)

    Further Down the road:
    Leveling or full 3" lift (would love advice)

    Have we decided on a date for a meet and greet? Sounds like it's between the 26th and 27th

    Did someone reserve a part of the park to host this gathering?

    Well, do you think we'd need to? Prices range from $150 - 300, and hosts up to 200 people. At this point I figured it would be like 6 - 12 of us and we'd grab a couple picnic tables somewhere.

    Hyland seemed good for its location, but I know little about it. Does it get crazy-busy on the weekends?

    You typically have to reserve picnic areas, but I am unsure. Might want to look at what the requirements are. It gets crazy on the week days, weekends are pretty busy as well.



    There is also West Bush Lake park near by. They have two pavilions with ample parking, and the park isn't as busy.

    Or if people want to come to the south side of the cities there are quite a few parks that dont get too crazy busy.

    That looks perfect. A little more tucked away. But I'm easy - I'll go anywhere.

    I'm 80% for the 26th. You guys want to call it a date?

    Let's set the date for the 26th. Is West Bush Lake the park the final decision?

    Anybody interested in the following? Make me an offer.


    Bumper - lights are not included. No dents or scratches on chrome. Hitch works great.

    Leaf springs - Allpro Standard packs with a Dakar AAL added (the one thick leaf in the pack). Still got plenty of arch. Easily good for 3" of lift. Rusty af.

    Yeah, I like 'em so far. Haven't noticed any difference in ride quality. Perfectly driveable with minimal weight imo.
