    Always liked the looks but been a Chevy guy growing up. I was swayed and after the test drive it was over.

    2012 white CM 4x4

    3/2 kit going on soon, CO's and add-a-leaf, no spacers or blocks. then some chopping to possibly fit 37's... We'll see about that part.

    Welcome from South La!! I was a Chevy guy until I got my 00 taco. Unfortunately due to a wreck and funds being low (college age funds nuff said) I had to go back to Chevy (s10) for ten years. But back in a yota and ain't going back!!

    Nice.

    Saw a few guys on the other forum fit them without glass up front, but there was quite a bit of hacking at the body mount and pinch weld. But he squeezed in 37x13.50's on a zero offset i believe.

    Off to home depot maybe this weekend to get a new grinder and get the party started.

    Quite a few Colorado peeps I see. Just moved back to Austin from Broomfield.

    Welcome from eastern CO! Looking forward to 37's on a 3/2, you'll be one of only a few to get that done.

    I guess pictures are always good too even though it's plain Jane right now.
