Trident904 No Longer Owns a Tacoma so this thread is closed thread

I dont have the plastic available. But I have the factory crash bar if you need to use it.

 

Nah Im good without it. I just want stock plastics so I can cut them up and use the parts that go under the headlights.

 

Brian, Is this what you need?

 

Yeah, but I’m not gonna pay what they charge for shipping.

 

Crazy how expensive that part is. Im bored at work so I was going to search to see if I could find it a a reasonable price.Cheapest I found was $132 free shipping and it was black.

 

Not bad. Where’s that though?

My fox have no corrosion on them at all in our climate

 

I hear this same thing for everyone though. Some say fox do it others say Kings rust etc.

I think it all depends on how you actually take care of your shit. Because I have fox and after a year and a half I have seen 0 rust and that's two Canadian winters with it in.

But I coat mine with krown once a year from them as a whole spray then re spray all suspension with either fluid film or krown spray once or twice a month through our almost 5 months of wintry conditions.

I'm not trying to say you directly but I personally think majority of the people complaining about rust are not doing anything to combat it.
Just like people that complain their car or truck rust out.

Unless it's either stainless or galvanized everything will corrode with salty environments.

Performance wise I've been nothing but satisfied with my fox 2.5 extended in the front.
I'm happy with the 2.5 in the rear but I won't lie I do desire better travel but even with the Kings nothing can match the performance of a remote reservoir and the travel I want unless you're doing a shock relocate and getting a longer shock.

And I was suggested the fox over Kings by a local shop as he's seen the fox lasting better to Ontario winters.

 

Having had King, Fox, and ADS, I don't think either King or Fox hold a candle to what ADS offers performance wise. The ADS felt better on the truck right out of the box. ADS tuned them to my specs unlike any King or Fox vendor did.

 

Wait until you soild axle, they ask you a ton of questions for valving

 

I can’t wait!

 

Honestly can't speak for ads other than I have actually been looking at them for the rear. But never felt them .

You're not the first I've heard this from and that's why I'm considering them so much.

 

They are legit

 

Did a little more trimming on the front fenders today. Looks a lot better without the holes from the fender flares. 37’s are gonna fill those fenders nicely when the time comes.

 

I am SOOOO GLAD to see that 63 swaps are still going on. I have done countless numbers of these swaps on the older trucks (pre-tacoma) and have silently wondered if anybody had done it on a newer Taco. Thank you for reinspiring me. This may happen sooner than later!

 

Well if you decide to do this I'm gonna have to check it out since you're somewhat close so definitely let me know!

 

So I'm kinda new to this but whats the advantage to a 63 swap?

 

Better ride quality/load bearing and more travel than Dakars, Deaver, or AllPro packs.

Best mod to date on this truck. Had Dakars on before the 63’s and the Chevy springs destroy the Dakar’s.

 

Those looked new too! I always went to a junkyard and grabbed them off the yard. Best hangers I ever used were off an S-10 but I literally just stumbled on them. Looks like youve got some store bought shit there? Or did you make them? If store bought, where from?
