Talking lifted taco pics

here are some pics of my taco with the OME 882 kit. i got it on this weekend and the bumper on last thursday. the lift rides great, much better than stock. i havent even reconnected the sway bar and it feels much 'tighter' than it did before.

i found an urban rti ramp and took some articulation shots, pretty good for ifs...

my favorite shot flexy taco

and some others... rti pics

now i gotta get my 1" RB body lift on so i can get 33x10.5s on a new set of 15x8 black rockcrawlers

looks good, but you need some TIRES before you do anything else! That bumper and lift and CB make it look like a real trail rig, and your tires are from a Geo Metro!

Actually they're not that bad, but are you planning on getting some a/t or m/t tires soon?

dont even waste your time reconnecting it. unless, you want it on so you can take the corners fast at the mall parking lot.

um, well I don't really want to be cruising at 75+mph down the highway for 1500 miles without a sway bar connected. Sometimes things happen and you have to make evasive maneuvers, which personally, I would not like to make in a lifted truck with no swaybar, I don't especially want to end up on the roof. So I wouldn't consider that stupidity

yeah man, thats what I do. Leave it undone at school, cause you know all those last minute late night wheelin trips we do. Then i just hook it back up for the drive home or wherever. but then again it takes me less than a minute a side to redo my discconects.

it's pretty easy with the stock links too, prolly take less than 5 mins to hook it back up, but i might have to get me some quick disconnects

Just ignore him and his trolling. He's not yet 18 and in the grand total of nine posts I have seen from him, not one actually added value to the thread.

That's a nicely done rig. Sometimes I miss my taco, especially the rear locker.
