My truck in my signature had 4.10s with 36s. I really like that combo. I did run some 35s on it for a while, and it was really nice to drive. I don't think you will be sorry with 4.10s/35s

I agree. While my setup isn't ideal I can still get by with a 300 6-banger with 31 inch tires and a 4.11 gear ratio. His V8 with the much taller tires wouldn't have half the problem my truck does with highway power and fuel economy.

And if he doesn't feel like he wants a gear that low, though I think the gear ratio would be app for his tires, he could go with 3.73's. He has the motor for it.

Now you're starting to come around you redneck

The thing did look better **** low, but we'll get it back down to a better stance here soon! Then it will have performance ability & looks again!!!!

I picked up 2 jerry cans for you yesterday Jason. Give me a call this week and you can stop by the shop and grab them and we can have a look at hangers for the hauler and coil buckets for the disco queen.

Looking good!

Side note: you know when the trail to the top of Saddleback opens? My aunt/uncle want to do a run in their 4 runner and me in the Tacoma. Maybe you, Vanessa and the kids would want to go too??

as of right now the Entrance in Silverado Canyon is closed, but I'm not sure if the gate is open on the Corona side or at El Cariso on top of the Ortega's. I'm going to try calling the ranger station in El Cariso to see when the gate's open. I'll let you know!

How did the fenders and bedsides fare during your airborne romp? Did ya crunch anything?

Truck looks great-any way you look at it, and any way it sits.
