    These could do some damage . . . better to be prepared with with skids.

    These ain't no joke. I took my brother's Pontiac Fiero to school when I was 15. Ran over one of those and scraped the crap out of the car in front of the whole damn school. Sounded like nails on a chalkboard except a thousand times louder. :anonymous:

    Honestly if he just got beadlocks, he probably wouldn't even need a spare.

    I'm noticing a trend here, and I think there's an opportunity for RCI to capitalize on some additional Key Features:

    • Lowers center of gravity by a nothingth of an inch - helps prevent rollovers
    • Reduces that 'nails on chalkboard' sound when harshing mall curbs
    • Acts as a shrapnel shield for grenaded rear diffs, thus protecting onlookers from certain death

    Feel free to pass these on to RCI for a nominal reduction in price to this group for all the great feedback. :thumbsup:

    Do they make a 3.0 version? Cause if you run 37's you need the 3.0 version otherwise it won't hold up.

    The snooter valve on the DC is located on the bottom of the motor so you will have to pull it get access. The crewmax has it easily accessible. Damn Toyota engineers - you would think they would make the motors the same for each model.

    Or you pull your motor out in order to install that thimgamajiggie. But yeah trade in is way easier. Post pics of your new truck when you get it. Then make sure you do a write-up of the install.
