Tacos in St. Louis area

Thanks. Thought they would be an inexpensive upgrade for a non TRD owner who is looking to stay at the stock ride height. The leafs were gone before I even left the shop

Here's a crappy pic while she was still in the shop. Better pics to come.

Details:
-- OME Nitocharger sports
-- 885 springs
-- Dakar leaf pack minus one leaf
-- Carrier bearing drop
-- 5mm spacer on drivers side
-- LR UCAs
-- Cooper S/T Maxx 265/75/16s

Gained about 2.25" up front and about 2.5" in the rear. Rides awesome!

 

Looks good, and you did it right!

EDIT: Oh yeah, and if I see you, I'll honk and give you the finger.

 

Lmfao!!

 

I saw the tires on CL, and almost called you. Next day I saw the ad was pulled I guess you sold 'em? Truck looks good. I'll have to swing by and check her out up close.

 

Yeah, the tires went quick. They wouldn't have fit your wheels anyway

Got her all cleaned up today, so good pics tomorrow. Stop by any time man!

 

If I get new wheels they would probably be 16's.

 

People!!! If your significant others are fans of Paul Mitchell hair products, my Fiance is in a competition fundraiser to win a trip to Las Vegas to a hair convention. It would be a great opportunity for her. She is selling bags of various products ranging from $30-$150. If you think you may be interested, send me a message and Ill give you specifics.

 

Finally got my lift pics up. Lots more in my build thread. Would highly recommend an OME lift. The Taco rides amazingly well now!

 

If ya'll ever see me, wave hi

 

Yesterday I had to be at a different building for work in the morning, and I parked right across from a MGM DCLB TRD Sport. When I went back out to my truck, there was a MGM DCSB TRD Off Road exactly like mine parked next to the Sport. If there was another open space I would have moved my truck and taken a picture.

I am thinking that MGM is way too popular, but I love the color. My last 2 were silver, so it is a nice change.

 

MGM FTW!

 

Hopefully gonna hit up the Berryman next weekend. Anyone heard a trail condition update? I know last month was the race.

 

Hey fellas trading up for a 2013. My baby is for sale. If i dont sell soon, Im gonna end up trading it in.

Thought I would put it out here as well.

GLWS! Sharp truck, I'll spread the word on my side of MO.

 

Haven't heard anything, but should be in great shape (other than some thick leaf cover in places.)

Let me know where and when, a buddy of mine has been wanting to go.

 

Where'd you get your lift put on at? Also if you don't mind me asking how much did they charge?

 

Lift, tires and wheels were done by Axleboy Offroad in St. Charles. Highly recommend them.

I sat with the owner, Scott, for about 3 hours to plan the lift and talk through everything. When the parts came in they had it installed and aligned in about a day and a half.

The labor cost to install the lift and UCAs, mount and balance the tires and do a road thrust alignment was just about $775. And that includes a followup appt to retighten everything after a couple hundred miles. And Scott warranties all of their labor and any parts purchased through them. So if anything goes wrong with my OME components, etc, Scott deals with ARB, not me. Taken advantage of that a few times with the TeraFlex lift I've got on my JK.

Sorry to sound like an ad for Axleboy, but I can't say enough good things about the crew there. Top notch!

 

Yea I've heard of them. Thanks a lot for the info sir.

 

Hopefully this Saturday morning. So far planning to meet my brother in Potosi Friday evening and stay (he's coming from central Ill.), and then hit the trail decently early next morning. Probably leave from Berryman campground, although I have ridden from Brazil Creek before.
Would love to meet up if you could make it Rich.
