    my build tread: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/socal-no-shame-poser-build.513084/
    whats up all. I began building my rig as an overland. I saw the sickest prerunner on the 15south a few days ago with 6” fenders and all pro baja bumper that had me drooling. My question is what is the best king suspension i can go without full longtravel kit conversion. Then ill slap some mcneil front fenders and that all pro bumper. Im already tuned and 4.88’s. Reason i say kings is cause my buddy knows the owner and think i can get a decent deal on them. Plus they are reputable and icons only ever go 15% off at expos. Whats your alls input

    you're gonna want +2 LT if you're going to run flares, otherwise you're going to have a basic-ish mid travel kit and be looking like you skipped leg day.

    Installing my skids the other day highlighted the fact that I need more clearance under my truck with similar/better performance!

    True, however the fenders will stick out much further past the tires, don't you think? or he could do this...

    Explaining to the wife that I need them to look good at the mall is always tricky.
