Whew that's a haul. I drove from northwest Ohio to LaCrosse, WI to get mine.

Where is it in Washington? If you paint your truck, you could make a road trip out of it and join @yotadude520 and @CreeperSleeper and me for the “red truck run” on the Oregon/Washington border!

Wish I could! Work is crazy right now so there's no way I could take that much time off. The bed is white anyway so I wouldn't qualify anyway.
Well the good news is we haven't quite set a date....or really have anything planned yet. But it WILL happen!

Nice haul! I’ve put Rough Country lifts in a 3rd Gen 4Runner and a 1st Gen Taco. Seems to be a good mix of qualit6 and affordability.

You best get after it this weekend so you can post pics of it on those fancy tires!

Yeah for sure!!
Sadly though, I'm going to let my techs put the stuff on. I broke my collarbone really badly about a month ago so I'm out of commission for a while still. Should have the stuff on soon though and I'll post some tasty pics!!!
Yikes man - that's a brutal break. Hope you recover soon!
And yes take lots of pics! I'm ready to see this baby transform!

Found someone to move the bed!! Won’t be able to get it here until April but I’m not in any hurry.

Thanks guys!!! Hopefully going to drive it today. Need some extended brake lines.
Haven’t had a chance to measure yet. I’ll let you know.

What's going on with the rear shackles? Might just be the angle of the picture, but they almost look inverted.

Definitely look inverted. When I buy lift springs for my ‘89 I’m going to buy some for the 90+ trucks. Maybe they will be long enough. Seems like all lift springs give you a terrible shackle angle.
