Just dropped my Sequoia/tundra wheels off for media blasting. Should be done sometime tomorrow.

You painting those blue too? :rofl:

Haha! I might now.

Haha! I might now.

Maybe someone can do some photoshop to show what it would look like. I like the blue on your skids I think that would look sweet with some silver center caps that match your paint.

I'm a very capable photoshopper. Wheels will be matte black and there isn't much more that will be blue.

Well the sandblaster guy reneged on our deal so I had to do my wheels by hand.

Heavy duty stripper and a wire wheel worked great! Had to repeat the process 4 times to get all the paint off.

Sweet bud mine are next right?

Got a big ol box of goodies from Oregon...

But, we had an issue with one of the front shocks...

Wheeler's was great and took care of it right away. Got the wheels and tires mounted... Had them installed so I felt like I got something done today.

Before

After

One strut assembled.

Diff drop too

,

Think I'll do all the sway bar rubber tomorrow.

One glamor shot...

Thank you. I've got 9 (4.5") wrap LC coils and Bilstein 5100's in the rear and toytec 3" springs with Bilstein 5100's up front. You could go 8 wrap LC's if you wanted 3" in back.

Thx bud.

All new sway bar bushings... Was going to do the front bump stops, but knows what size wrench you need to get those things out!

The front link bushings must have been OEM. haha

 

[GGFerrier]

Lift tonight!

 

[GGFerrier]

Holy cow that was a lot of work solo...Going for the alignment this morning.

Got more lift out of the 9 wrap LC coils. Sitting on 5.5" right now and 3.5 out or the Toytec front spring. Overall I'm happy with the results

Many thanks to Dan and Steve [MENTION=80392]Wheeler[/MENTION]'s Off-Road, Inc. for all their help with tech questions and outstanding customer service! They are my new go to guys!!!

Got some decent rake but I like it.
