With the rest of the suspension on the truck, it just makes logical sense. I will eventually do lower control arms but not until an option exists that doesn't reduce turning radius (like the TC ones) and still has provisions for running secondaries (everything else). Word on the street is that Camburg has something in the works... But that word has been on the street for a while and I have yet to see anything, even CAD drawings.

I like those. Would the Tundra ones be significantly different from the Tacoma? I realize the size is probably different, but I’m thinking I could have some fabricated for the Tacoma. Am I missing anything?

I would imagine that they would be quite a bit different. Right now I am figuring out if I do their fabricated shackles or use the factory ones. Gotta see how much height the fabbed ones give me. But for the price, I think it is a great mod.
 
Saw a real one today

As far as I know, they've been available for the Tacoma for quite a while.

But, the house has been steeling most of my spare time and attention. On the bright side, house is done and turned out great. Just waiting on my sub to finish out the home theater which is supposed to be here tomorrow, and it's a damn beast! I had originally ordered a Sonance S8 dual 8 inch sub to match my Sonance Reference R1 speakers but they had no ETA on it, so I punted that plan and went full retard with an SVS Sb-4000. Should be sufficient to wake the neighbors.

Gotta get back to the truck now. Archive leaf hangers, CBI rear bumper and cbi rack are next. In no particular order, just really all I have next to do..


Gonna have to live vicariously through all of your builds now
 
how do you like that garage door motor thing. I saw one the other Day at Home Depot an it seems like a bad ass little thing

So far so good! It's super quiet which is great and the add on accessories are really cool. I haven't been able to use the wifi capabilities yet because of an issue with the app, but hopefully they get that sorted out sooner rather than later

Looks amazingly amazing! When's CJU coming over to help you wire the sub so you get sick bass drops every time you open the microwave and lights flash when you run the dishwasher?

Still a nice list of mods. My rear bumper came and looks good off the truck... but no installation instructions were included so I'm trying to chase some down so I can hopefully get it on tonight. I like how "factory" it looks though... it doesn't have a "fabricated" vibe to it, which is nice IMO.

I was just about to ask about it too since the receiver in ours shit the bed and we literally have to push the button 7-15 times right in front of it to get it to open sometimes. Tried changing bulbs, etc. to no avail. Shouldn't be getting any RF interference... it just doesn't work. :confused:

Yeah, so far I am super happy with it. Seems the bad reviews mostly relate to the app, which in my case does not work either. Just doesn't connect to wifi, so the wifi features do not work at this time. A co-worker of mine has had the opener for a few years and hasn't had any issues short of the one noted about the app. The accessories are awesome. I added the extension cord reel as well as the fan which does a good job of circulating air.

Good to know, thanks! I might have to get one. I honestly don't really care about the WiFi that much haha. More circulation would definitely be nice!! How's the light on it? Looks to be better than the standard two-bulb style?

It's got a few LED strips in there for lighting and is motion activated. So as soon as I walk in the garage from any direction, it turns on.

Sweet now I will be even more comfortable when I use your home as an office and hang with my besties.

Dude! The house is looking baller.

I’ve got a pretty sick Theatre Room myself.

Thanks man! Been having fun with it. Nice to get the theater done and the new sub made a massive difference. What are you running?

I have an Anthem D2v processor with two Anthem amps feeding four BG Radia subs, seven BG Radia speakers, JVC projector, 150” cinema scope wide screen with Control4 controlling it all. It sounds pretty sweet.

Not the greatest pic, but you get the idea.
