I am quite pleased with the 35s!! Even with tock 4.10 gears I have plenty of power on the road (except for 5th gear) and is very useable on the trail. I'm hoping to regear to 4.30s and get my duel cases installed before spring :gun6: I got the pinch welds clearanced pretty good, but I'm going...

Time for my yearly post LOL Life is great! We have been super busy with everything. We have 5 old Toyotas in the family now! My original 98 (with over 455k miles now), 97 Becky offroader, my wife's super clean 98 2wd, the 89 that has been on cinderblocks for over a year now, and the beater...

After being on the hunt for a nice 1st gen for over 10 years, I finally bought one! 1989 V6 SR5 Auto. She's a bit rough, but almost no rust and I'll eventually get everything fixed up real nice. The end goal is a go anywhere camping rig on 33's with a 1UZ, R150f, and dual cases. I'll try and...

Well, it has been over a year since my last post lol. Life has been busy! (and great!) Here are some things in order: bought an aluminum rooftop tent (love it!), adopted a second cattle dog mix, got married to my soulmate!!, lost our little yorkie-poo, moved to east TN near Windrock, moved...

My ACC vinyl floor was just plain backed vinyl. I made a vinyl mat for my work truck last year. Ordered from coin roll vinyl from this place Coin Nitro Rolls - Vinyl Garage Flooring Rolls for a Durable and Attractive Workspace It has been holding up great and still looks new after 7 months...

Got a few pictures to post. I might post more eventually. Been real busy at work and projects. Welded up the hoops on the fun truck! Only took me a year to get the bumper finished lol <a data-flickr-embed="true"...

On both of mine, I have OME struts, 881 springs (2.5" lift stock weight), and 1/4" top plate spacers to counteract the sag from the bumper/winch and give me a little more down travel. Not super ideal with the spacer because my UBJ is the droop limiting factor. Rear are OME 891 (3" lift +150...

I order just about all my parts from Village Toyota. They don't email a confirmation and can be slow if they have to special order parts, but they're the cheapest I've seen online parts in the US. Free shipping over $75 order and no tax!! I just ordered some filters and spark plugs last...
