    ARB suspension and lockers

    16x8's won't fit on the sport edition's because of the larger brake calipers. 17's are the minium.

    XREAS problem

    Yeah, I'm surprised how many dealers really know nothing about the system. I guess if they haven't had to fix it, they don't know anything about it. Try calling Northridge Toyota.. I know there are guys there who know their stuff.

    Why did Tacos get ARBs first?

    Well I can't tell you every state's laws, but most states just require that you HAVE a bumper. Now, you probably couldn't have giant spears coming out of the front of your bumper, but at long as it is the proper height off the ground, you are set.

    Solid Axle

    Oh, I'm totally with you on going SAS. If you don't break your IFS, you don't really need SAS. If you ask how much SAS costs, you don't need SAS!

    Solid Axle

    To show your side of things, that it costs 6g's +. Here's a thread on TTORA talking about the cost of SAS'ing tacomas. http://www.tacomaterritory.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21812

    Solid Axle

    Remember. This guy also included the price of 4 35inch tires and the cost to do a regearing for his rear gears. I would think that if you are SAS'ing and are already lifted, some of this is not needed. He added the cost of doing an entire lift rather than just a front SAS.

    Solid Axle

    Now, I don't know about $1k, but I've heard that $2k is about right. It obviously depends on if you get the work done for you, or you do it yourself. I don't know where people get their parts from, but I know for $2k you can go long travel or SAS. Call All-pro and see what they use. For...

    Rear Coil Spring - Decision Time

    Okay. If you call Deaver, talk to Scott. He's the man that knows what's going on.

    Rear Coil Spring - Decision Time

    I have the same setup up front as you on my 4th gen. But I have a different rear setup. Here in lies the... 3rd Option: Deaver Spring Company I had the same thoughts as you, wait for Donahoe, go with OME or Downey (which both have their drawbacks), or do something else. I contacted Deaver...

    Some 4WD tips for novice wheelers.

    A quick desert tip: When approaching a set of whoops that you didn't see in enough time (if you drive in the desert this has happened to you), do not attempt to hit the brakes before hitting the whoops. This will compress your front suspension and not allow it to absorb the whoops properly...

    Question about lifting

    To answer your question, yes he has a garage at his location in Santa Ana and I'm sure that he would install it if you asked him to. Although he sells camburg and Donahoes, he does tons of work outside of those two setup's. From spacers to solid axle swaps.

    Wheel and Tire combo question

    Agreed. Interco makes a 32 on 17's in the SSR tire. http://www.intercotire.com/site34.php SSR-15R 32x11.50R17LT

    max lift?

    It's not impossible, and a kit could come along someday that would enable you to fix 35's, but it is highly unlikely. Companies like Fabtek and Skyjacker make kits for Fords / Chevy / Dodge for a reason (there are tons of them). There simply is not much market for those mass producing...

    Lifting an 04 with XRAES and Air

    Well, you don't need to match the 1.5" exactly on the front. You could just do a 2.5" spacer lift and that should work. #1 When you lift the front, some weight will be lifted from the back and it will naturaly raise a little bit as well. #2 A difference front to rear of less than an inch (why...
