    With my worn 31s I just got 345 miles to the tank.

    I have no idea what that is in real mpg though.

    Shouldn't you be asking, "what is that and should I buy it?"

    Yeah. That was the plan.

    Wish I was doing it this Friday but friend who has spring compressor and press has family in town so gotta wait :rolleyes: it's cool though. He is taking the time to help and allow me to use his tools so I can't complain.

    Haha you truly don't wanna know, I added a few things to my order plus I live on the other side of the country that they came from so shipping was pretty steep.


    As for mpg, my UG reads 19.1-19.4. But I'm stock at the moment. Congrats Brent!! Haha let's hope I can get the same when I get my 33s :cool:

    Hahaha! What is that and do I need it?!?!

    Looking at my truck the front end seems a tad lower than the rear (it was level when I got it) so you know where my mind is now!

    Just be prepared for yet another question on lifts and suspension that's been asked a million times.

    :humble:

    Meh. If MPGs were a concern, I wouldn't have supercharged my truck or modified my rig to the point it is today. Just wait for the little orange light to come on, swipe the card and carry on. Every time I have a rental car and it has one of those instant MPG's I instinctively turn it into a game to see what's the lowest number I can get.
    Besides, I want the treehugger in the Prius next to me to not only hear me, but smell the unburnt fuel passing through my cat-less exhaust system and into their shitbox. I call it Prius repellent.

    Tacomas come from the factory with rake (rear is slightly higher than the front).

    But your stock suspension is probably pretty tired, depending on how many miles it has on it.

    Mine's exhausted... damn near comatose with 180,000 miles on it.

    Ask away.

    I tried that for one tank didn't really do anything still getting 14 mpg. So I said fuck it, it's just so damn hard not driving fast and people are fucking stupid and don't know how to drive. So if I drive faster it's easier to avoid the asshats. Thats what I tell myself and fuck off to whoever says otherwise:D
