    Haven't really attempted something like this before so not very confident in my own skills. Its just a set of coil-overs and UCA's and maybe a body mount chop on a 4runner.

    Do it yourself or grab some buddies and beers. If you want someone to do it we can work out a price. Dm if your interested. Probably take a half day and you'll want an alignment after.

    Any meets happening in the near future after the holidays? I have a stock 2013 DCSB SR5 that I'm getting ready to start building soon. I have a fairly good idea on the lift/tire/wheels I'll be going with but it would be nice to see what everyone else is running and what does/doesn't work well.

    Ok I’m north too. I’ll help you do the install so you can get the experience and knowledge of your vehicle. Let me know when you are ready. We can do the work at my place if you don’t have tools or room.

    Depending when it is, I can swing by and lend a hand. It’ll be nice to do something non-maintence related for a change.

    I’ll let you know. He’s finishing up the new housing now and should ship out this week. I’m really looking forward to having some exceptional light output.

    Anybody up for a Charouleau Gap run on the 26th? Time to tick this one off my list... Want to get it done in a single day if possible, but might be down to camp.

    Keeping an eye on the weather though - could be a no-go.

    Cool. Maybe I should pre-run it, then we can go after you get your rig together and I can act like I know what I'm doing...

    That’s a two rig minimum trail. Plenty of stories of one truck going in alone and having to hike out after a breakdown. Definitely needs to be on the to do list if you haven’t been through yet. Go with someone that knows the trail and bypasses. I’d volunteer but I’m having an issue with my front actuator that isn’t fixed yet.

    Firestone lifetime! But they are getting more and more stingy on accepting "lifted" vehicles. Good luck!

    I also agree with Firestone as a recommendation. I go to the one at the Tuc Mall when I get it done in Tuc. They do my LT 1st Gen no problem. Never have given me any shit for it not being stock.
