I'm swamped for the most of this month. I do get a week and a half off for Christmas and New Years. If I can get this stupid vibration figured out, maybe I can get down that way.

I'm headed out to the Silver Island mountains over New Years weekend, you're both welcome to join me.
Where is that even at? lol I do not think I have been out there before. But depending on where it is and when you are going I may be able to make it out. I am definitely going to try and get 33s on it soon... As in hopefully this week...
haha and actually I just looked those up... I would be down to go. It is about a 3 hour drive to the mountains... so it may depend on when you go and what time you go there as well. So just let me know when and I should have a better idea of if I can make it or not.

Just north of Wendover, and New Years weekend.
Probably no wheeling to speak of, I'll be in the F150. But it's beautiful and remote and full of history.

Haha no wheeling? whaaat?! Jk... Yeah I dunno if Ill make it out there. I still have work and its about 3 hours away... If you are closer here I may end up going out to the snakes or see if I can convince some others to take me out to little moab cause I have no idea how to get out there yet.

Unless it's snowy or your tires are crap, you won't need 4WD. That doesn't mean the trip will be lacking in adventure. 
Little Moab is easy. Go south from the corner of Main and Redwood in Lehi almost exactly 26 miles. Take the left turn at the old farmhouse (the maps have it as W 9600 S). Drive west through Chimney Rock Pass. Just as you pass Chimney Rock (you'll know it), look left - Little Moab is the big patch of white slickrock you can see sticking out of the hill about a 1/2 mile north of you.

B is the farmhouse, C is Chimney Rock, D is as far as Google will let me map but I bet you can take it the 100 yards or so from there. Take a couple trash bags with you if you go - being an ATV area, it gets trashed pretty bad. I always leave with at least one leaf bag full of beer cans and Gatorade bottles.

24-188265 for the front
1999-2006 Toyota Tundra Front Adjustable Bilstein Shocks (24-188265)
And
24-185394 for the rear
1999-2006 Toyota Tundra Rear Shock, Bilstein 4600 Series (24-185394)
Essentially everything but the fronts were in so I picked them up. Then the Fronts were actually back ordered until like the first week of this month. So they finally had come in and I got them about a week and a half ago now.

I swear that I have heard that when turning past the farmhouse that the owner of the land has no trespassing signs now cause you have to go through his property to get there? Is that not true?

It's been a couple months since I've been out there, but I've never heard that. I'm sure he's got No Trespassing signs on his fences and gates, and I would too if I lived out there, but the road is a county-maintained right of way. There's no gate across it.
Haha good to know... now I may head out there on Wednesday and check it out... Either that or I may go out to snakes again as usual... I am hoping to have new rubber this week... Trying to work out a deal with my dad lol
Welp, today my tires were ordered and came in by the time i got off work. So afterwards i got to get everything mounted and painted. And maybe a little trimming done in the rear. tomorrow will be time for trimming the front hopefully. Because it is going to need it for sure!
Sorry for crappy phone quality pics i forgot the camera

What size did you go with?
I went with 33s just on the stock wheels and painted those until i can afford to get some real wheels... Hoping to get the scs f5s eventually. In either gloss or matte black. I haven't completely decided on color yet.

This is not true. Little Moab is on BLM land and the road to Little Moab is a County maintained road.
Good to know... Maybe I will go out and try to find it this weekend then.
Welp, the weekend came and went and I was able to get a few things done on the runner. Since I was rubbing on the frame without a spacer I was able to get spacers in the front and went with spidertrax 1.25" and now im just waiting for the rears to come in the mail.
After getting the spacers on I then started rubbing on the pinch welds so I was able to hammer those out and get them pushed them back to the point they will not rub anymore. And they definitely feel a lot better already!
And then for the finished result for a little while until I feel like taping everything off to paint the fenders and the side panels on the doors.
*not sure why the pics are all so blurry

Well... the Front quick disconnects didnt come in the mail today as planned. Hopefully tomorrow. But i decided to go out on a train anyways and see how the new tires handled with the lift as well as the spacers and just how everything worked combined. I think i am rubbing on the rear fender of the bumper, but i am not really sure yet as to where yet. But anyways here are some pics of the rig on the trail.
