Where it came from:
Here is runny. 98 Limited 4x4 V6 178,000 white with 97 taco rims and 285's STOCK. wtf? Bought it from a hippie who didn't know what wax was nor did he shower, cool dude as he handed me (4) 1997 3 spoke rims (restoring them now) and a run of the mill brush guard, but a hippie is still a hippie, had to polish the old boy for 4 hrs then lay down three coats of wax. PITA! well worth it as I get more compliments on this guy than I get in the 4x4 V-max Silverado I sold to get her. Cheby's break and suck gas in ridiculous amounts. Glad to be out from under it.

Called Toytec got the 3" Ultimate with the heavier springs up front for the Shrockworks bumper coming soon and the Bilstein 5150's in the back.
Pre lift
Post Lift
FYI Taco rims are NEGATIVE .5" offsett from stock 97 three spokes. UCA's began cutting grooves into the sidewalls after a long .3 mile trip around the property.
In come the Spidertracks 1.25" spacers!
Before Spidertracks
After Spidertracks
All Aligned and WHITE WALLS OUT! Political stickers added. Keep remarks to yourself, we're focusing on the whitewalls here hippies!
Done some other stuff like blacked out emblems, ISR, tranny cooler and Deck-plate mod.
Got a Taco Whip and Mount coming in the mail and Im waiting about 15 more days before we call Shrockworks:frog:. Prepare yourselves. PM me if you want the brush guard and live near g-ville Florida, time for her to go!
Got a long way to go but most people think I'm kidding when I say "...and Im only about 10% into the build!" I could go through my wish list but I feel the awesomeness of it is to much for civilians and I don't wanna junk up the search feature.

"Toytec 3.5 Lift - In the Mail!"
This is why i love this truck, no matter what breaks there is a bulletproof fix. Behold my new Cryo rotors with hawk pads and brembo fluid. No boil over here. 13WL 231mm TUNDRA calibers not shown.
