    I've never played a slot machine. I always end up in a card game and see how fast it takes to run out of cash.

    I did great at blackjack and roulette but slot machines seem to hate me. Oh well.

    Toytec was a sponsor, but didnt have a booth. So really not sure. Went up after the raffle and asked what they were and where the came from and they didnt know anything about them.

    Edit: there was a shipping label on the box, i'll look when I get home. Maybe you know the guy?

    Call Toytec customer service and see if they’ll work with you
    Call Tandem and see if they can help
    List them for sale on every FB page you can

    Was communicating with toytec through email, they just stopped communicating after they told me they were for a 4runner. :rofl:
    I'll call them back when I get un busy and go from there.
    They sell TC stuff, in a perfect world they let me trade them for credit towards lca's. :fingerscrossed:

    Cut & broke off some stuff.
    Those coilovers might fit a tacoma even they are technically for a 4R. Likely ride softer.

    When i was selling my 2nd gen taco and getting a new 4R, i contacted King to see if the coilovers could be swapped over from Taco. Small difference in valving and spring rates. Close enough i would have been willing to try it out. Length of hose and angle of fittings for resi is different though which prevented me from swapping. Taco hose & fittings wouldn't work for 4R but i suspect 4R spec parts might fit Taco ok.

    Could try it out if you have nothing better to do. "For science" :D

    They are prettier than my icons...prob not worth swapping for essentially the same thing. My tophats are still intact. :rimshot:
