    CollegeDude or CollegeTacoma (something like that) in Gunnison, CO was selling his for real cheap.

    One of them was pretty messed up but nothing some fiberglass couldn't fix. (98-00s are fiberglass)

    EDIT: here's some for sale since Sept... see if he's still selling them http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/1s...res-king-coilover-springs-oem-leafs-sale.html

    And I have a 98-00 front end... I am being nice :eek:

    No problem. I'm not going to bother. I'd rather try and find a set that I can just paint match and bolt on. No experience with glass here unfortunately.

    I took off the side steps, I still have the intention of putting them back on though, just wanted to see how it looks without.

    How come almost every Tacoma I see doesn't have factory side steps any more? Do you guys not like them?

    i think for most they don't serve a purpose, it's not like our trucks sit high anyways.
    for me, they don't protect like sliders. i wheel too much to have side steps getting in the way

    I should directed the question to those who don't off road as much. I know they're useless compared to sliders.

    It just seems that even mostly stock trucks don't have them.

    x2, never seen them either. but before i got into wheeling my truck i took off mine because they weren't much use. i didn't sit high enough to use them. and when you take them off the truck appears to sit higher :D

    This past weekend had a friend come over and help me remove the bed.
    Sanded and repainted the frame, wheel center caps and wiper arms.
    Next up is the rear window frame.
