pretty much what i figured...i found quite a bit of wood chips under my plastic bedliner when i removed it to replace it with a spray on...so im thinking they used that so they stuff wouldnt blow away out of the bed.. kinda helpful tho...ive used them a couple of times for a number of different stuff...

I saw a truck like yours with Alaskan plates yesterday that had the wheels off the new Tacomas. It looked VERY VERY cool. Never seen it before.

These are the wheels I'm referring to:

my buddy's got a set of the mojave's. they wheel very well and i think i may get a set too. the ones to get are the teflon coated option. i think they look very clean, with that graphite color you spoke of.

PS. very nice truck. my old 'yota was that color and i still love it.

lately ive been down in montclair, hackensack, NYC, and east rutherford...but thats still a lil bit away from you...other then that the only other place you could see me is up around hackettstown...

i see a lot of regular cabs that look like my truck...but i rarely see any extended cabs in the area...those mini seats in the back have been really nice...

just wanna say thanks for all the good words about the truck...once i get working again, and all that good stuff...i should be looking at saving up around 7-800 and regearing...then prolly new torsions, ball joint spacers, new leaf packs in the rear, and new shocks all around for my lift...im only looking for maybe another inch or two...then ill fit in some 32s, and thats about where ill end it...until i get hungry for more lol

I used the Superlift 3" or 4" and it lowered the front cross member and I didn't like it much,at the time there was nothing else available . I think Downey makes a good front system that you don't have to drop the front cross member and still get a good lift. The rear is Add a leaf and 2 1/4" shackles. if you have any questions feel free the memories are still fresh.
