Sounds like fun. If I can find some sliders and a full size spare between now and then I would join.

I ended up going with a friend of mine and his 3rd gen. We made it half way up and had to cut the run short cus he broke both rear shocks at the top mount shaft. I would like to hit up that Santiago Peak one day. Looks pretty rad.

I will be there in the staging area around 8:30 to 9ish

Just seeing if anyone is doing a short trail run this Friday? I'm not organizing a run but I think I may be going to Pancake Rock early Friday with a couple of friends who are more than likely going to flake out so I'm just trying to find see if anyone here is interested in joining.

Smogged, paid the registration, and got 255/85/16 bfg mudders put on

I lifted my 3rd gen and ran into the same problem. I have the tundra lift up front and dont commute very far for work so I removed my front sway bar. I looked at the rear and it definitely needs longer links. Looking at my front links and comparing to the rears, I think you can replace them with...

Thanks to "cat" thieves I was able to buy a 97 Tacoma 4x4 5 speed with 160k from the original owner when her cat was stolen. She only wanted $1500 and I bought the cat from the shop I worked at for 180. Loved the truck but then I sold it 2 years later for 6500 and now i'm in my 3rd gen limited.

Do you have the vent open when it happens? Try driving with the air circulating only. I have the same squeal intermittently when i have the blower on and I know you can take the blower out and lube the bearings

The bilstien 5100 rear shocks are good for 0-2 inch of lift and they ride real well

Thanks for posting this. It made me back out of my bid on this. Toyota Tacoma Concept | eBay

I think the bigger coil goes to the left of the vehicle to compensate for driver, battery, gas tank etc.... With the coilovers you will be able to adjust up to the LC coil height or to where ever you want them to be.

You should be fine with your stock springs up front. When you assemble the struts just put the front perch on the top notch. The shock adapters are like the ones in the picture. The guys at downsouth I hear are pretty reasonable, you should call them and let them know you're buyingthe kit for a...

I don't think the front 4th gen springs would work because of the different spring rates and diameter or something. To Run those socks from that kit you'll need to get some shock mount adapters.

Struts not assembled correctly, nuts missing from the strut, loose rear control arms, loose bushings.........wonder what caused the roll over. Haha. Nice work on the progress. I just hope youre showing that E30 some love too tho.

the driver side strut is assembled wrong. It should have one bushingon top of the top hat just like the passenger side. Fix ASAP.
