hey, i just bought my yota 3 months ago...all stock. i was debating on lift options and didnt like the fabtech crossmember. its strong as hell but dips down too low on the bottom of the infamous "X" bracket. its seems like u lose ground clearance a bit with stock tires and 6 in fab. i didnt like the 6in trailmaster with the crap braces for the hub. i went the easier to install, hella expensive way. anyway, nice yota. l8r

Thanks for checkin out my truck! No the tires don't rub, I cut out the pinch welds and did extremely minor plastic trimming, you can't even tell.

i second 4wheelinrascal on the 6" fabtech. it dosent give you any more clearance than stock and gives you a higher COG, especially if you keep the body lift. like the truck tho, check out mine

Looking good my freind. Personally i would stay away from Fabtech unless you are planning on doing mostly pavement pounding. The trailmaster is a better trailrig lift. Also Fabtech 6" isant compatible with manual locking hubs. I have the 2.7 liter 3RZ motor in my truck and im about to put in my 4.88 gears this next weekend.

it would be alot of work, but i don't plan on doing that...i just a-soon buy a new truck, which i plan on doing in the next 2 or 3 years. but you'd have to find someone who's done a SAS and buy their front diff., then you'd have to buy a transfer case, and front drive shaft. but if you're gonna go through all that, you should just do a SAS.

About the fender flares there is no cutting involve. It comes with strews and a manual book for u to install it. Very easy. If u want the metal bolts to show on the fenders like mine you're going to have to drill holes on the truck for the screws, but you dont have to, because it should come with plastic buttons to cover it up if you are not planning on drilling. Have any more questions just ask.

Hey wassup man. Another Taco fan I see. Thanks for the comment. Man that truck looks awesome, and i also like it cause its a L4, safes gas and still kick some Chevy butts all around, u noe what i mean. A, I think u should put a 3x2 roll bar w/ fog ligts, chrome grill guards, and some cut out fender flares. Believe me, they will look good on ur truck, especially on this model. Its my favorite

hey thanks 4 checking out my ride. i think i will go with a 3" suspension lift just because its a lot cheaper. but right now my priority is either a brush bar, or bull bar and put some lights on it.
