    Damn I got to work this Saturday.. Maybe no wheeling for me this week. Might just have a mod day Sunday. Planning on having one of my subcontractors make skids for me so I need to get under the truck and map em out.:thumbsup: These vendors charge insane amounts for a bent piece of plate with 4 holes.

    Great memories for sure! That was a great last minute trip haha, definitely had no idea prior to 4:30pm yesterday afternoon that I'd be doing the Rowher trail at 10pm that night. First time wheeling in the dark and it was great! Glad we were able to do it together. Good seeing you and the lady again, didn't get to see many fireworks but it was fun nonetheless.

    I came down pretty hard on my front skid (again) on one of those ruts coming down Rowher Trail, I swear when I go in for an oil change Toyota's going to look at me like 'wtf are you doing to this poor truck' lol. Going to go ahead and add a stronger, new front skid to my ever-growing list of much needed mods :bananadead:

    On the bright side my sliders are about ready!

    Check your hubs to see if they're loose, too.

    I am not sure how much longer I can hold out on these. My new setup feels incomplete without it...:pout:

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Those don't look 3.5 over stock.

    The lower arms shouldn't care if you're 4 wheel drive or not.

    I my opinion the lower will do nothing but strength u less u change other things to get a little more travel. Tie rods are often a bind point and cv's sometimes need to be ground to allow for more flex. IMO lowers are not worth it unless u have the extras and even then I would just got towards LT. Just me though.
