All in, less than 1000 for a full suspension for the Tacoma.

That's a good deal
Me too. The Tacoma has been due for suspension work for awhile so it should drive like a whole new truck when we're done.
it's like once you start it never ends though. I think the important thing is to figure out the end goal and build to that. I learned a lot of lessons with my 3rd gen 4r.
I have the 4runner for 4wd, technical wheeling, and overlanding trips.
The Tacoma will be mostly desert and gofast since it's 2wd and lighter. I wouldn't even be doing half this shit if these guys didn't hook me up with such great deals on the parts, but it'll do to make it more comfortable off road for the time being and keep some wear and tear off the more expensive 4runner parts.
Eventually, it's gonna get a 4 link and long travel, but that's quite a few years off.

So are you picking up the supercharger from @whippersnapper02
LS3 is what you need in that thingV6 is fine for me.
Maybe after I move to Arizona.
How much for those tc links? They work on a 5th gen I’m assuming
Ebay imitation TC links. I bent a lower and the panhard. Never used the uppers because they had the wrong bushing sleeve for the upper bolt, but I did end up using the rod ends and bushings when I revamped the lowers before they got bent. Besides being scrap metal I really just need to toss them.
from my research the uppers are fine anyways stock. Rebuild the bushings and keep goin. The lowers are definitely suspect to getting bent. Some thin wall tubing lol
Uppers help fix the pinion angle if you're moving your axle around, but for the most part yeah I pretty much ran stock uppers until I got my metal tech uppers.
Talking about the new motors that have very little aftermarket support?
LS has so much aftermarket support, it's ridiculous. So much can easily be done to easily achieve 400hp reliably.
Put my spare radio temporarily in the Tacoma for a quick day trip shooting tomorrow. I need to pull the dash and drill holes to hardwire it.

Apparently tailgates can fall off when you're not paying attention and hitting shit too hard. Fuckme stock suspension sucks balls. Definitely need to get the icons put on.
