Well, I did it!!!!

Yeah I do need more lift than 1/2". See thats what I thought that the overload wouldn't make a difference unless you had weight in the bed. I knew the guy who told me that was full of it, thanks for confirming.

 

What lift setup are your running on your rig BThorson? Meaning shocks and coils?

 

Nice ride brah...

 

5100 with they toytect (eibach) 3" coil at 620 lbs. Wheeler 3 leaf progressive add a leaf with 5100's in back. ride is super nice I put in on at 127,000 so the original shocks and struts were pretty much done for but surprisingly still had life to them.

 

good looking truck

 

I have 1" shackles on the way.

 

Dang.... I guess its hit and miss??? Some people as for yourself love the eibachs and some people hate them cuz they make the truck ride like crap. It was a toss up between toytecs 5100s/ eibachs and OME. apparently the OME is a better ride due to 500lb coils instead of the 620lb. I'd love to find someone in town with eibachs and ask for a ride just to see how they really ride haha

 

This is the most recent pic I have of my rig. 3"spacers/ 1.5" blocks. (32's) I'll definitely post a before and after pic with the new suspension once its installed!

 

It is much smoother to me I think because the OEM stuff was so worn out. I went with the 620 because I will be getting a plate style bumper asap and that will add more weight to the front.

 

thats a nice looking truck!

 

Makes sense! Plate bumper should def help!

 

Thx brother! Just so sick of the spacers and the horrible ride. Def dont want axle wrap to occur in the future. Finally gave in and decided on a "real" suspension lift

 

I built them

 

Apparently i dont know what retrofits are haha. Guess its headlights?

 

Yes sir. Look at link in my signature

 

Those are dope! Projector lenses? I had some ebay projectors in my bagged 97 nissan hardbody but hated them. They look good on a tacoma. Pics of my old HB from 2010 before I sold it. Bought it in 2002 bone stock. I miss it

 

Ebay ones wouldn't compare to the products I use. Top of the line with best possible performance

 

What do you charge??

 

I wanna get a set but can't justify the price for headlights, sk8erjess' look awesome but then on some trucks they don't look as good

 

Ebay onea aren't even projectors. Just a halogen housing with a random lens slapped in there for looks. I remember them being so bad i actually laughed when i turned them on for first time.
