Very nice! Post up some pics! I’m hearing very good things about this Eibach lift.

As promised, no tires yet, those are next up. Had it done at ChiTown4x4 they knocked out the 4 springs in 70 minutes, and then charged me less than quoted because it was so easy.

Hi All,
New 3rd gen owner in Chicago. I'll try to keep tabs on this thread and tag along next time y'all head out to Badlands/Cliffs/wherever you can get off the pavement in our little corner of the midwest.
Has anyone been to Haspin Acres (near Indy) recently? I've read comments that run the gamut from "It's great!" to "It's a 24 hour drunk on wheels!" Lots of the comments were from 10 or 15 years back, though. I like the idea of Haspin as you can camp on-site. It might make for a good during-the-week trip at some point if it's really not as crazy as some make it out to be.
Dean

Love the 460 and 470 builds. So versatile and they look great! There is one out here in the western suburbs and it looks great. I think they have a great stance and the platform is endless. Good luck with your search!

Tires go on tomorrow, hopefully, I'm 0-1 trying to get them installed so far, I'll be itching for something soon.

Iffy, you're north of 280 but south of 80...

Anyone planning any outings now that the weather is returning to normal, the plague seems to be fading and night doesn't start at 4pm anymore?
I've got this lift and tires and certainly need someplace to use em.

A lot of people are going to the Toyota takeover at the Silver Lake Sand Dunes this Saturday.

This one will be rough, timing-wise, but ping me if you have other events coming up that you know of, I don't do Facebook anymore but always willing to meet up.

Sp00ner,
I'm up for it. But, not until mid- to late-September, probably. We're in NC now. Then, Labor Day weekend, we're dropping Thing II off at college in Denver, camping in WY for a few days, then visiting family in MT. I imagine the weekend in between will be busy as all get out. I'm dying to see what my "new" 4Runner can do, especially if there's somebody else available to save my dumb butt! I'll ping you or reply here.
Dean
