    The front of the truck was up in the air. The bumper dragged on the ground a little.

    Pick wisely. Toyota diffs are very picky and have to bet setup just right

    I had good luck with advanced auto tech on 2nd street last year when i had a muffler welded in. But that is just a muffler. When i went back a couple months ago to get a 3 inch set up installed, i talked to the guy about my sc i installed and he offered me a full time job right there on the spot. haha

    Highly recommend ECGS. they have warranty as well and I know from several friends they are good for it.

    Front diff is a bitch just cause..

    Rear ain't that bad tho.

    4.56s will be fine since your a manual. Just a heads up tho cruising rpm will be higher then stock. But the 3rz likes it plus there is less load so you won't see a loss if any in mpgs.

    I think you'll be fine with just a rear locker. Front is only needed for really really hard trails. I'd save the money. Get an arb rear tho.

    Yea look around.

    Keep in mind the warranty ECGS does too. Could be worth it..maybe not.

    From them will be expensive. Should be able to send them your old diffs too for a core charge.

    Figure you guys would be the experts on this, Me and the Wife are taking the Taco out on its first long distance road trip to Yellowstone, Grand Tetons and all points in between MA to WY, big question is we will be there 2nd week of Sept and I was curious to what the weather will really be like, seen the averages but I never trust that. Of course we will be camping so if you have any favorite spots that will help to

    Wow that's gonna be a big road trip!

    Anyways like gage said, the weather in the mountains will be chilly. 30-50s most likely and dropping down to as low as 10 depending on elevation and other stuff.

    Pelican point in Yellowstone is a great place for eating your lunch.

    Fire hole river is sweet too.

    If your good hikers avalanche peak is my favorite and it's a tough one. But soooooo cool.

    I love driving through Haden valley too. Which is pretty much unavoidable haha

    I don't know the Teton area as well..but it's pretty much gorgeous no matter what.

    Chief Joseph highway is a great way to get to the park too.

    Sounds like coulda been Marc but he wasn't there.

    There is a guy in Casper with a 2nd gen..could be a girl idk. It has a rear bumper and soft topper too tho.

    Was it dark blue? Megan from rock springs used to be on here.
