    Looking at those install instructions makes me cringe. Giant spacers and blocks and a ton of brackets shifting everything down. Seems sketchy and unsafe. cant believe people drive with that stuff on their trucks.

I picked it up cheap and spent days removing rust. Then I took it to my buddies metal shop and he helped...

    Many of the products you pick above are awesome. If you have any specific questions about a certain one feel free to ask. I have had the toytec lift kit, icon stage 4, fox long travel with allpro arms , and king long travel with TC arms.

    1. does everyone run 3 Inches on tacomas? People usually run 2-3 inches of lift because any more requires a drop bracket which is bolt on but compromises the strength of the front end and the reliability. It also doesn't allow for ground clearance as it just drops everything down making the...

    No worries. I love overlanding on fire roads as much as crawling over boulders. It's all good.

    OB Approved Camping with Firearms

    I camp in the middle of no where a lot. Sometimes I bring a gun and sometimes I don't. I do worry about bears because we see a lot of them. If the come into camp at night and they wake me up my plan is to setoff my car alarm. I keep my keys next to me when I sleep. That should scare them off. If...

She even installed my long travel suspension. Im one lucky guy. She has her own instagram @life_of_a_TW_wife devoted to being...
